Do I need to be a Walmart Plus member to shop Walmart's Holiday Deals sale?
No, you don't have to be a Walmart Plus member to shop Walmart's Holiday Deals sale. Paying subscribers do get to access the sale first, with 12 hours of members-only shopping on Oct. 8. If you see a deal you really want, it may be worth signing up to ensure you can snag it before the masses.
Should I shop Walmart Holiday Deals or Amazon Prime Day?
Given the two events kick off on the same day, you might be wondering where is best to spend your money. The first consideration should be whether you have a Walmart Plus or Amazon Prime subscription, as that is going to dictate access to some of the deals for some of the time.
As part of the event, Walmart has confirmed that discounts will include 30% off tech, kitchen, power stations and select apparel, as well as up to 40% off toys, up to 50% off candles, up to 60% off floor care and beauty and up to 70% off luggage. If those categories appeal to you, it's going to be worth at least perusing Walmart's sales to find some bargains.
Walmart's sale also continues for a little while after Amazon's October Prime Day wraps up (on Oct. 9), so you can use Walmart's sale as a backstop should you miss out on anything during Amazon's sale.
We'll be highlighting the best deals from all the year's biggest sales, so keep an eye on CNET.com/deals and the CNET Deals account on X for all the latest updates.
