Walmart's 'largest deals event ever' to rival Amazon Prime Day — plus, sales to shop now

Between 4th of July sales and Amazon Prime Day, July has established itself as a time for serious savings. And now, with the announcement of Walmart Deals, more casually known as Walmart's anti-Prime Day sale, it's become a month of mega-deals — and we're so here for it. This summer savings extravaganza kicks off on Monday, July 8 at 5pm ET and runs through Thursday, July 11 at 11:59pm PT. For those keeping score, yes, that's a week before Amazon Prime Day 2024, which is scheduled for Tuesday, July 16 and Wednesday, July 17, takes over the internet. During Walmart Deals days, you can expect discounts on everything from Dyson vacs and bestselling smart TVs to Emeril Lagasse's popular indoor grill and air fryer. Walmart+ members will have early access to shop the hottest deals of the season beginning at noon ET on July 8 — that's five hours before anyone else. If you became a member last week during Walmart+ Week, you're already set. If not, our advice is to sign up now. This is one markdown event you don't want to miss, so keep reading for everything you need to know about Walmart Deals 2024!
