Walmart+ Week ended just days ago, but the retailer just announced “its largest savings event ever,” called Walmart Deals, is coming soon.
The timing for Walmart Deals falls in line with two of the retailer’s main competitors, Amazon and Target. Amazon recently announced dates for its 10th Prime Day event, and Target announced the dates for its next Target Circle Week sale. Now, all three retailers will hold sales events this July. In each case, the new events will follow other recent seasonal promotions. Amazon, for instance, held its inaugural Big Spring Sale in March, and Target held a Target Circle Week event in April.
Walmart is No. 2 in the Top 1000, Digital Commerce 360’s ranking of North America’s online retailers by web sales. It is also No. 9 in the Global Online Marketplaces Database, Digital Commerce 360’s ranking of top such marketplaces by third-party gross merchandise value (GMV).
When is the Walmart Deals sale?
Walmart announces that its Walmart Deals sales event begins Monday, July 8, and ends Thursday, July 11. Unlike Amazon’s upcoming Prime Day sale, which starts at 12:01 a.m. Pacific time, Walmart Deals will begin at 5 p.m. Eastern.
“All customers can shop ‘Walmart Deals’ on Walmart.com and the Walmart app,” Walmart said in a statement.
How is Walmart Deals different from Walmart+ Week?
Whereas Walmart+ Week runs for a week (as the name suggests), Walmart Deals will run for about three and a half days. Walmart+ Week 2024 ran from June 17 through June 23.
Walmart+ is a paid membership program the retailer offers. Members must have a Walmart.com account and the Walmart app “to access the money and time-saving features of the membership,” Walmart said. Members can choose to pay monthly (currently $12.95 per month) or annually (currently $98 a year).
Walmart+ benefits include:
- Free shipping with no order minimum.
- Free delivery from store.
- Savings on fuel.
- Mobile Scan & Go in store.
- Video streaming with Paramount+.
- Early access to promotions and events.
Because Walmart+ is a paid membership, members experience the biggest perks of Walmart+ Week. On the other hand, Walmart Deals is open to all consumers, the retailer said.
Whereas Walmart+ Week was a shopping event for the retailer’s paid loyalty program members, the retailer said Walmart Deals is open to all.
