Walmart Big Save: The best deals for Prime Day

Walmart's Prime Day shopping event ends on October 15

For most retailers, Prime Day sales are ending. Amazon, Best Buy, and Target are turning off their deals at midnight tonight (however, deals of this kind will come out again with Black Friday Amazon deals). But Walmart still has still one more day of its sale ahead of even more Walmart Black Friday deals.

We’ve gathered some of the best deals from the Walmart Prime Day sale below. Make sure to check back throughout the week, this sale only lasts through October 15.

You can also check out the best Prime Day deals still remaining from the other sales.

The Best Deals from Every Category

Walmart’s best discounts today are on Prime Day TVs, Nintendo Switch games, kitchen appliances, toys, and more. Browse each section below for the best deals from each category so far. There will likely be more deals to come as Amazon continues to roll out its discounts through tomorrow.

Walmart 4K TV Deals

The majority of Walmart’s TV discounts are on Roku smart TVs and Vizio smart TVs. If you’re looking for 8K TVs or a 75-inch 4K TV, we’ve found some better Prime Day TV deals in the Best Buy sale. If those aren’t convincing enough, check out the best Black Friday TV deals for additional options.

  • Sceptre 50-inch 4K LED TV$200 ($80 off)

Walmart Computing Deals

Walmart’s computing section isn’t offering very many laptop deals, but there are a few of note alongside some computer monitors. You should probably wait for more Prime Day laptop deals if you’re looking for high-end PCs or gaming laptops. If you’re looking for Apple laptops specifically, we’ve found the best deal on MacBook Airs on Amazon.

  • Lenovo IdeaPad 15-inch Laptop

    $429 ($70 off)
  • Lenovo Chromebook S330

    $199 ($100 off)

Walmart vs. Amazon Prime Day: Which Sale Should You Shop?

While there are some obvious differences between the two sales, Amazon’s Prime Day has the best discounts on most things. Walmart’s sale isn’t offering very many 4K TV deals and the Nintendo Switch bundles aren’t great, so this sale certainly seems less intriguing.

Amazon also has Walmart beat when it comes to fashion sales, as it has been investing in becoming one of the best online clothing stores for men and women. And when it comes to Apple deals, like discounted iPhones, Apple Watches, and iPads, Amazon has historically had better prices than any other retailer on Prime Day.

One thing that Walmart has that Amazon doesn’t, however, is Google Nest devices. Amazon is known to offer enormous price cuts on their own smart devices like the Echo Dot and Fire TV stick, but you’ll have to look elsewhere for Google devices. Walmart is known to offer some of the best prices and bundles on these smart speakers and accessories.

Does Walmart Price match with Amazon?

The short answer to this is, no. If there’s a better discount on a product at Amazon or Best Buy, then you should just buy it there instead. Amazon has a tendency to automatically price match discounts offered by other retailers, but Walmart tends to rely on discounts on their own signature brands during these kinds of sales.

What goes on sale on Prime Day?

Prime Day is Amazon's biggest sales event of the year. Since launching in 2015 to celebrate Amazon's birthday, Prime Day deals have gone from strength to strength with 2020's Prime Day achieving record-breaking sales up 45.2% on the previous year. With over $10 billion worth of goods bought globally during the sales event, it's a fantastic time for you -- the consumer -- to dive in and pick up a great Prime Day deal. Read on as we look at exactly what goes on sale during the two-day sales event and what to expect from the big shopping event.
What do I need to do to buy on Prime Day?
Unlike other sales events, there is an exclusivity factor to Prime Day. Only Prime members can benefit from the savings going on during the two-day event although consumers partaking in a free 30-day trial of Prime can also be a part of the massive shopping event. Make sure you have a Prime membership in some form in time for the sale.
What can I buy during Prime Day?
Honestly, mostly everything. We'll dive into further detail about what kind of deals tend to occur but it's safe to say that pretty much everything can be on sale during Prime Day. Initially a big event for Amazon-branded products and technology, Prime Day now covers all kinds of things from cooking equipment to cleaning gear, books, Blu-rays, and much more. As with any sales purchase, we strongly recommend checking out all our buying guides and best products roundups so that you've thoroughly researched what you're looking to buy.
What to expect in the Prime Day sales
Amazon Products
Understandably, Amazon is always keen to discount its own products during the Prime Day sales. Each year, we tend to see big discounts on a wide range of Amazon-based products. These include price cuts for Amazon Kindle, Amazon Fire tablets, Amazon Echo smart speaker devices, Fire TV sticks, along with other products owned by Amazon.

In recent times, that's meant discounts on the Ring Video Doorbell along with smart plugs and other devices to make your home smarter in how it runs. Basically, if a product has Alexa support, it's often reduced during the Prime Day sales which can even mean price cuts for Alexa-enabled TVs and robotic vacuums.
Technology
Technology is one of the biggest areas where you'll see price cuts during the Prime Day sales. That area can cover a wide range of products. Generally, there are discounts on the latest smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy range as well as major laptop brands. Prime Day 2020 saw a massive $150 on the Apple MacBook Air and we'd expect to see similar again this year. Other brands such as the Microsoft Surface, numerous Chromebooks, and Windows laptops from Asus and Lenovo are likely to be discounted too.
