Amazon isn’t the only retailer hosting an October sales event, and those looking to start saving well before Black Friday are in luck.Â
While the second Prime Day of the year—known officially as Prime Big Deal Days—runs for just two days from October 8 until October 9, Walmart is also getting in on the deal action in a major way. Walmart’s Holiday Deals run from October 8 until Sunday, October 13. Like Amazon, Walmart sells just about everything you can imagine, including many of our favorite Windows laptops, gaming PCs, TVs, monitors, accessories, and more.Â
I’ve rounded up the best of the October deals now live at Walmart, with considerations for products we’ve tested and those we know are popular with our readers.

Walmart October Deals: Frequently Asked Questions
This is the first time that Walmart is hosting an October Deals event, and it’s laying out some of the rules surrounding the promotion. Here’s what you need to know.
When is the Walmart October Deals event happening?
Walmart’s October Deals event starts for shoppers on October 8, 2024, at 12 PM EST. However, if you’re a Walmart+ subscriber, you get early access to the deals beginning on October 8 at midnight EST.
Unlike some competing events—including Amazon’s October Prime Day—which only runs for a few days, Walmart’s promotion is expected to run until Sunday, October 13, at 11:59 PM EST. That gives you plenty of time to shop.
Which countries have access to Walmart October Deals?
It appears that Walmart’s October Prime Day rival event is available for US shoppers at Walmart.com or in the Walmart app.
You can always check in at your regional Walmart website, but if you’re outside of the US, your best bet might be to shop at Amazon. Its sales event is going live in 18 countries.
Do I need a Walmart+ membership?
A Walmart+ membership will undoubtedly improve your shopping experience at Walmart, but getting access to deals is not an absolute requirement.
Walmart+ members receive early access to deals starting at midnight EST on Tuesday, October 8, while regular shoppers must wait until noon EST on the same day to start shopping at a discount.
So, what else is so special about a Walmart+ membership? Like Amazon Prime, My Best Buy, and Target Circle, Walmart+ upgrades your shopping experience. Here’s what you can expect.
- Early access to deals
- Exclusive member pricing and releases on select products
- Free grocery delivery
- Free shipping, no order minimum
- $0.10 off gas per gallon at participating gas stations
- Paramount+ subscription
- Free flat tire repair and road hazard warranty at Walmart Auto Care
- Walmart Cash from Expedia Travel
- Item return pickups at home
Walmart+ doesn’t come free, and you can expect to pay b. There’s also a 30-day free trial, which is ideal if you just want to take advantage of early access sales without continuing the membership.
What’s the difference between Walmart October Deals and Amazon Prime Big Deal Days?
Aside from the website and the dates that the events are running, there’s really not that much difference between Amazon and Walmart’s October deal events.
Both retailers have a similarly broad selection of products, both have membership plans, and both can offer the lowest prices possible. If you don’t see what you want at Amazon during events like Prime Day, it’s always worth checking out other retailers as they usually have their own ongoing promotions to compete.
