Walmart has several waves of Black Friday deals coming up, the first of which begins on November 11th, followed by two more taking place on November 25th and December 1st. Through Walmart, you’ll get three hours of early access to each of these deal waves on the website and through the Walmart app – but only if you’re a Walmart Plus member. This way, you can shop for the gifts you want at your leisure without feeling like you’re competing with shoppers for the bargains before they sell out.
If that sounds like a luxury, Walmart is offering a whopping 50% discount on membership through December 2nd, cutting the cost $49 for one year. In addition to early access to Black Friday and Cyber Monday deal events, there are exclusive Walmart Plus offers you have access to all year long. Membership also guarantees free shipping, gas discounts, a Paramount Plus subscription, discounts at Burger King and more.
In case you wait until the last possible moment to snag a discounted subscription, Walmart spokeswoman Gabby Ach confirmed to Polygon that those who started purchasing a Walmart Plus subscription until the start of an Early Access Wait for the deal period to still get instant access to these offers.
