It's the most wonderful time of the year. But with that comes a particular panic that hits around now to find the very best presents to shop for your loved ones.
The good news is, there is no time like the present to brush up on your online shopping skills. And Walmart is one step ahead of the game with thousands of holiday savings to be made in the Walmart sale. So, of course, we've set our crack team of eCommerce Editors onto Walmart.com to sniff out the best deals.
But with so many deals to sift through, it's easy to feel spoiled for choice. That's where we come in. Our shopping editors double as sales hunters. We love a good bargain, but we'd never sacrifice quality for cost.

With most of the big sales of the year well and truly wrapped up, including Black Friday 2024, the next sale event you can look forward to before we meet 2025 is the Christmas sales.
While they're currently offering holiday savings to get you gifting ready, expect things to really ramp up after Christmas with the Boxing Day sales.
The most important thing you need to know is that Walmart+ members get early access to most Walmart sales, so be sure to get yourself signed up ahead of time to be in the exclusive club and get ahead of all the savings to be had.

While we don't currently have any confirmed information ahead of the Walmart Christmas sales, you can typically expect things to kick off on Boxing Day and last throughout the following week.
Do Walmart hold in-store and online sales?
Yes! Unless they are holding specific online deals like on Cyber Monday, most Walmart sales are hosted for both in-store and online customers.
What will be on sale at Walmart this Christmas?
Typically, Walmart holiday sales have discounts on several big-name Walmart sellers. We're talking Dyson, Shark, the Beautiful by Drew Barrymore kitchen collection, Ninja, and more.
Walmart tends to slash prices across all categories so if you're eyeing up a new mattress, gadget, rug, or some small impulse buys to refresh your home ahead of the New Year, post-Christmas is the time to get the best bang for your buck.
When is the cheapest time to shop Walmart?
Black Friday is a notoriously cheap time to shop at your favorite retailers, including Walmart. Following on from Black Friday is of course Cyber Monday to help you nab some bargains buys for your Christmas shopping.
