Let the countdown begin: Black Friday may still be over two weeks away, but Walmart’s early Black Friday deals officially kick off tomorrow. So what does that mean? Starting Wednesday, November 8 at 3pm ET (noon ET if you’re a Walmart+ member), you can hit “add to cart” on tons of deeply discounted items from top brands like LG, Samsung, Keurig, and more. (Not a Walmart+ member? Right now, you can score 50% off a Walmart+ membership and get early access to all of Walmart’s holiday sales.)
Of course, ever-dependable Walmart has already started dropping impressive deals. The following five must-haves from the mega-retailer were chosen by our shopping editors as part of our 30 Days of Deals campaign. Have a binge-watcher on your list? This Hisense 58-inch smart TV is an impressive $268. Looking for the perfect gift for a little one? Encourage their creativity with a classic Lego set (over 1,000 bricks!) for only $20. Been eyeing an iPad? This Apple 10.2-inch device is $80 off. Scroll down and start shopping!
1. Get a smart TV for less than $300
Ready to dive into Christmas movies? How about watching NFL and NHL games? If you’re still not rocking a sufficiently brilliant set, let us introduce you to the Hisense 58-Inch 4K Smart TV. The television has 8.3-million-plus pixels and high-def picture quality that makes it feel like you’re living out each scene and making every play in real-time. In addition to its crisp and clear display, this comes with Roku to stream thousands of movies and shows. “Great smart TV with terrific picture quality and Roku to boot, making it so easy for us to dial in HBO, Netflix, Hulu, and all the rest,” reported a happy user. $268 at Walmart
2. At 75% off, this knife set makes the cut
A new set of knives is usually a pretty pricey proposition. That’s why Vavsea’s 16-piece set at only $50 almost made us spit out our coffee. The professional-grade knives are made from durable stainless steel, which means you can use them for slicing a variety of items, from veggies to thick cuts of meats — you name it, these knives can cut through it. One Walmart reviewer said: “Very sturdy set of knives. The wooden handles are a huge plus. You’re not getting some cheap plastic. These knives are extra sharp, so be careful with younger ones using them to cut their meat! Excellent purchase, and I plan to buy more to give away as gifts.” $50 at Walmart
3. Score an Apple iPad at an unbelievable price
The Apple iPad sets the standard that all other tablets strive to reach. Between the beautiful screen, the snappy controls, and the speed packed into the slim form factor, it’s hard to imagine a better option for either entertainment or productivity. The downside, of course, is the price: iPads are expensive. But right now, the 2021 model is seeing a huge discount, bringing it down to just $249. More than 4,000 Walmart shoppers give the device five stars. Said one fan: “Great purchase! Always wanted an iPad. It works great for my apps, music, and audiobooks. Good audio and camera! It does everything with wonderful color and clarity on the screen.” $249 at Walmart
4. Save some serious cha-ching on some gorgeous bling-bling
This stunning Cate & Chloe white gold-and-crystal necklace is the perfect accent for just about any outfit, immediately jazzing up any casual ensemble or fitting right in with an elegant holiday look. And, seriously, white gold? For less than 21 bucks? It’s hard to believe, but Walmart has the hookup right here! Shoppers love this sparkly accessory, raving that it’s a “gorgeous necklace” and that it’s “very good quality, super shiny, and stunning. Got lots of compliments when wearing it! Highly recommend.” $21 at Walmart
5. Encourage intergenerational play with a $20 Lego set
Know a Lego-loving kid? Here’s a gift they’ll be playing with all year long. This classic set comes with over 1,000 bricks in a variety of colors, plus 15 mini-builds of iconic Lego toys like pirate ships and castles. There are extra pieces, too, so little ones can build their own creations. Another perk: It’s a toy that kids, parents, and grandparents can enjoy together. “This is a great 90th-anniversary Lego set. It will make a nice addition to my grandson’s already growing Lego inventory,” wrote a shopper. A fellow grandparent agreed: “I love these Legos. I got them for when my grandson visits. We’ll have a great time playing with them.” $20 at Walmart
