So if you missed both Amazon and Walmart’s deal events, you didn’t miss out on much, as you can score the same deals on Walmart today.

The deals span every tech item you can think of and lots more, making this the perfect opportunity to purchase something you have been eyeing, snag birthday gifts for loved ones, get back-to-school tech, or even get a head start on, dare I say, holiday shopping.

To make your Walmart Deals shopping experience easier, I’ve rounded up some of the best deals below.

FAQs

What is the Walmart Deals event?

Walmart Deals is the store’s big sale event of the year, other than Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This year it began on July 8 at 5 p.m. ET and ended on July 11 at 11 p.m. ET. The event’s date was likely strategically planned to occur one week before Amazon Prime Day. Even though the Walmart event and Prime Day are over, most Walmart deals are still active.

When was Amazon Prime Day 2024? 

Amazon Prime Day is Amazon’s annual two-day sale event. This year, it began on July 16 and ended on July 17. 

Does Walmart price match Amazon deals?

Walmart does not price match competitor’s online or in-store prices, including Amazon. However, we have found that many Amazon Prime Day deals can be found on Walmart. The major difference is that at Walmart, you do not need a Walmart+ subscription to shop the deals, whereas on Amazon, you need an Amazon Prime subscription.
