If you want to start your holiday shopping early, look no further because Walmart has officially announced its upcoming Walmart Holiday Deals event. Shoppers can save on everyday self care and household essentials, seasonal products including food and decor, gifts for the upcoming holiday season and more. To ensure you don’t miss out, read below to learn more about the event, including when, who can shop and what deals and savings you can expect.

When is the Walmart Holiday Deals event?

Walmart Holiday Deals event starts online on Oct. 8 at noon for Walmart Plus members and on Oct. 9 at midnight for everyone else (in-store deals start at 6 a.m.). The event runs until Oct. 13, in-store and online, with discounts being automatically applied at checkout with no code necessary. These deals coincide with Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, which start on Oct. 8 and run for 48 hours, and Target's October Circle Week. That's good news for deal hunters and early holiday gift shoppers.

Who can shop during Walmart Holiday Deals?

Walmart Holiday Deals is open to all shoppers. However, Walmart Plus members receive early access to the sale, 12 hours ahead of everyone else. Walmart Plus memberships grant exclusive in-store and online benefits to Walmart shoppers for $98 per year, or $12.95 a month. Walmart Plus members can also access perks and benefits, including free unlimited deliveries, free next-day and two-day shipping, mobile scan-and-go checkouts in-store and more.
