This deal gets you $50 off the Xbox Series X

By Aaron Mamiit Published April 15, 2024

Xbox Series X on a table. — Xbox

The Xbox Series X, Microsoft’s current-generation video game console, is a powerful machine that will meet the needs of even the most demanding gamers. If you want it in your arsenal, or if you’re planning to upgrade from the Xbox One X, you’ll want to take advantage of Walmart’s $50 discount that pulls its price down to $449 from $499. With more than 500 units sold over the past 24 hours, we’re not sure how much time is remaining before stocks run out, so it’s highly recommended that you make your purchase immediately if you want to pocket the savings.

Why you should buy the Microsoft Xbox Series X

The Microsoft Xbox Series X offers 12 teraflops of processing power, which enables 4K gaming and 3D spatial sound. Xbox fans will love the familiar interface, and with fast load times, your excitement will never go away. The console comes with only one controller though, so you’ll have to buy one more if you want some co-op or versus action with your friends and family members.

If you want to check out the top titles that you can play on the Xbox Series X, check out our roundup of the best Xbox Series X games, as well as the best Xbox Series X exclusives that you won’t be able to play on any other console. There’s also plenty to be excited about with the healthy lineup of upcoming Xbox Series X games. However, to further maximize the device, you’re going to want to sign up for an Xbox Game Pass subscription, which will give you access to an expansive library of titles across all genres so that you’ll never run out of games to play.

Whenever there are Xbox Series X deals, they often sell out quickly, and we expect the same thing to happen with Walmart’s offer for Microsoft’s video game console. Instead of $499, you’ll only have to pay $449 following a $50 discount. You need to act fast because there’s no telling when the bargain expires, so if you think the Microsoft Xbox Series X is perfect as your next purchase for your gaming collection, don’t waste any more time — add it to your cart and proceed with the checkout process immediately.

Stocking stuffer idea: Get a Tamagotchi for only $20

The Original Tamagotchi digital pet on a chain.

Here's a worthy addition to our roundup of Cyber Week stocking stuffers: the Original Tamagotchi, a digital pet that's making a comeback after reaching peak popularity in the late 1990s, is on sale from Walmart for less than half-price. From $42, it's currently available for only $20, for savings of $22. We're not sure how much time is remaining before stocks sell out or until its price returns to normal, so if you think this is the perfect gift for somebody, or perhaps even for yourself, take advantage of the offer immediately while it's still available.

Why you should buy the Original Tamagotchi
The Tamagotchi shaped the tech habits of a generation when it was released in the late 1990s, and it's back as a retro device that's targeting kids and adults alike. If you've raised Pokémon in any of the Pokémon games or built an island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the Tamagotchi is an extremely simple version. As a digital pet, you'll have to feed it when it's hungry, play with it when it's bored, give it medicine when it's sick, discipline it when it bothers you, and clean up after it when it leaves a mess. You'll raise your Tamagotchi from an egg into a child, and depending on how you raise it, it will grow into one of the seven types of adults.

Gamers who haven't upgraded to the PlayStation 5 yet should probably take advantage of this offer from Walmart as a gift for themselves. The PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle, which originally costs $500, is on sale with a $76 discount, so you'll only have to pay $424 for this package. You're going to have to hurry though, as PS5 deals almost always sell out quickly because of the console's popularity. Tomorrow may already be too late if you want the savings, so we highly recommend proceeding with your purchase right now.

Why you should buy the PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle
The PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle, as you can probably guess from the package's long name, comes with Sony's PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition, as well as a single DualSense controller. Between the PlayStation 5 Slim and PlayStation 5, the changes in the PlayStation 5 Slim go beyond the slightly more streamlined design, as the updated console also offers a storage increase to 1TB from 825GB. The bundle also comes with Cobalt Star cosmetic items for the massively popular Fortnite, along with 1,000 V-Bucks to spend on the free-to-play title.
