The holidays are just around the corner, and Walmart is offering customers a chance to cash in on thousands of bargains — some up to 50% off — from now until Sunday, October 13th.
So, between the low prices at Walmart Deals and this year’s Amazon Prime Big Deal Days (which ends Wednesday, October 9th at 11:59 p.m. Pacific time), you’re sure to find a wide variety of bargains ahead of the busy holiday season on tech, toys, kitchen accessories, gifts for the home and more.
Walmart Deals 2024
Just like last year’s Walmart Deals event, the retailer is introducing earlier, longer windows for holiday savings across an assortment of goods and services, including its inflation-free holiday meal — weeks earlier than in previous years.

“We know many of our customers are beginning to prepare for their holiday celebrations early, and we’ve adapted our approach to best meet their needs,” said Latriece Watkins, executive vice president and chief merchandising officer, Walmart U.S. “We’ve worked hard to lower prices across our most exciting assortment ever, and we’re thrilled to give customers more of what they want this holiday — more time to prepare and more opportunities to save all season long.”
When did the Walmart Deals event begin?
The Walmart Holiday Deals event started for everyone on October 8 at 12 pm ET on Walmart.com and the app, Walmart+. However, members received exclusive early access to shop the most-wanted deals 12 hours earlier than anyone else.
If you’re holding out for cooler temperatures before making your list (and checking it twice), don’t miss Walmart’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday events, when the retailer will also have a variety of deals and discounts.
