Want more deals? Visit CNN Underscored’s?Guide to Prime Day?for wall-to-wall coverage of the best discounts to be found during Amazon’s massive sale.
While Amazon Prime Day is limited to just 48 hours of savings, Walmart takes a longer approach with its competing sale. In addition to Target and Wayfair, you can get Prime Day-level deals at Walmart during its Holiday Deals event through Oct. 13.
You can expect to save big on everything you’ve had on your list — including gift ideas as you gear up for the holidays, household items and tech. I’ve been a shopping editor for the last five years or so at a variety of lifestyle publications (though I’ve been an editor for nearly a decade), I’ve been covering deals from Prime day to Black Friday. So, I’ve done the hard work for you and sorted through the ones actually worth shopping now. Ahead, check out the best deals I’ve scouted out from Walmart’s Holiday Sale.
The best part? Unlike previous Walmart sale events, you don’t need to be a Walmart+ member to partake in the savings. Just be sure to shop the deals before the sale ends!
