Prepare for Walmart’s Black Friday Deals for Days 2022
Black Friday is one of the biggest shopping days of the year. It’s a day people look forward to so they can buy both things they’re interested in for themselves and gifts for friends and family for upcoming winter holidays. It’s far and away the biggest moneymaker for a lot of companies, and Walmart is no exception.
The increased interest surrounding Black Friday has led some companies, including Walmart, to expand their Black Friday offerings. Black Friday has started to come earlier and earlier for many companies, and Walmart’s Black Friday sales start in early November as part of its Deals for Days program. Here’s everything you need to know about how you can prepare for Walmart’s Black Friday Deals for Days event.

Deals for Days is Walmart’s special way to celebrate Black Friday and the weeks leading up to it. In its press release, Walmart described it as a way to “spread the excitement of Black Friday savings over three events throughout November and cap off a month of deals with Cyber Monday.” Walmart has done the event for two years, offering special discounts and deals for all shoppers, including both Walmart+ members and general shoppers.

Walmart+ is a membership program offered by Walmart. With it, you pay a monthly fee to get certain benefits, such as free shipping on Walmart orders with no minimum, no delivery fees on Walmart delivery orders and more. When it comes to Deals for Days, Walmart+ members will get seven hours of early access to discounts, allowing you to see if there’s anything you’re interested in before all the other Walmart shoppers get access.

Walmart won’t release the exact list of products until each event starts, but you can expect them to be available in the entire array of categories Walmart offers. The company is trying to become a one-stop shop for everything you need, which means you can enjoy plenty of discounts and deals in-store and online during the Deals for Days event. You can, however, expect Walmart to drop its Black Friday ad in the few weeks before Black Friday starts on Nov. 25.
- Is Walmart the only company offering early-access Black Friday deals?
