Walmart Deals for Days 2021: The 18 Best Deals Weve Found

Amazon’s first Prime Day in 2015 was greeted with plenty of skepticism from other retailers. Outlandish success has a way of changing tunes though, and for Prime Day 2021 nearly every major store has a rival sale going on alongside Amazon. Walmart is one of those stores. Its “Deals for Days” sale lasts from June 20 – 23.

To help you save on the stuff you need, we’ve gathered up the best deals on offer at Walmart. Be sure to have a look at our round up of deals at Target, and our best picks from Amazon’s early deals as well.

Note: We strike through items that sell out or rise in price as of publishing. We will update this article, but discounts sometimes return quickly, so be sure to check for yourself. Our picks come from our team’s experiences reviewing products and research.

Apple iPad Mini

The best part about the iPad Mini is the 8-inch screen, which is perfect for traveling. It also supports the first-gen Apple Pencil, which makes it great for sketching on the go. Not sure which iPad is right for you? See our guide to choosing the perfect iPad.

For over three years we’ve recommended the Watch Series 3 as the best bare-bones Apple Watch if you want a basic fitness tracker that will work well with an iPhone. It is older, and lacks features you’ll find on newer version (like electrocardiograms or fall detection). But on sale it remains one of the best basic fitness trackers around.

If you own an iPhone, already buy movies and shows from Apple’s library (or subscribe to Apple TV Plus), an Apple TV is perfect. It has every major streaming app, including Amazon Video, and the interface is slicker and easier to use than a Roku. The new 2021 Apple TV has a new remote and updated internals. It costs $169 ($10 off) right now.

These on-ear noise-canceling headphones from Apple-owned Beats (9/10, WIRED Recommends) are easily some of the best you can buy, and they’re a deal at this price.

The Apple Watch Series 6 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) added a blood-oxygen-measuring tool and slightly increased the display size. We think this is still the best fitness tracker for the iPhone and the best Apple Watch. This deal has been running for a couple of weeks now and is also available at Amazon.

Lenovo Yoga i9

The Lenovo Yoga 9I is 14-inch convertible ultrabook. This configuration features an 11th-generation Intel Core i5 processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM, and a 256-gigabyte SSD. It also comes with a stylus, which packs away in a handy storage slot.

The Lenovo Duet is one of my favorite Chromebooks. I don’t recommend it as your main machine, but if you want a tablet that can double as a work machine, this one fits the bill. This deal is for the model with a 64-gigabyte SSD. The discount isn’t huge, but I’ve noticed that the Duet seems to be getting more difficult to find so if you’ve been eyeing one, now might be the time to buy.

This 14-inch Asus Vivobook is a solid mid-range laptop at a very reasonable price. It features a Ryzen 5 processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM, a 256-gigabyte SSD, and a Full HD 14-inch IPS display. It also retains a USB-A port and audio jack, things that are increasingly difficult to come by. If you need help making sense of all the specs, be sure to read through our guide to buying the right laptop.

Acer Swift 3

The Acer Swift 3 is our favorite budget laptop and the best choice for most people. This deal is for the 4K model, which is normally too expensive to call a budget laptop. Otherwise, this has the same specs as the HD screen model but costs less: Intel Core i5 processor, 8 gigabytes of RAM, and a 256-gigabyte SSD. The only downside is that the 4K screen does harm battery life by a few hours, but it still gets about 11 hours.

We are huge fans of the 2019 Nintendo Switch remake of this Zelda Game Boy classic.

Super Mario Odyssey was Nintendo’s first official Super Mario game for the Switch and one of the best games for the system. It features possibly the strangest twist in a game franchise that’s never been short on strangeness: anything that is made to wear Mario’s cap becomes Mario. It’s worth owning if you don’t already have it.

Roborock S4 Max

This is a good price on a solid offering from one of our favorite robot vacuum manufacturers. Each of the S series robot vacuums offers great battery life and large bin sizes, but the S4 Max strikes the best balance between performance and price. That’s why it’s our top robot vacuum pick for most people.

If you have hissing, barking fur balls, er, pets, around the house, this is the robot vacuum to get. It’s got the smarts to avoid errant piles of Legos, and 2.5-kPa of suction power to pull dog hair out of low-pile carpet.

Are you the one person left who doesn’t have an Instant Pot? Get one already. A pressure cooker will change your kitchen game for the better. This is a good price on a size that’s good for a family of four. There are a ton of models. This one has all the common features and a lid that stays attached via a hinge.

If you don’t need the capacity of the 6-quart model, this one offers most of the same functionality in a smaller, more counter-friendly form factor.

The Charge 4 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is our favorite fitness tracker for most people. It has accurate sensors, built-in GPS, and some of the best sleep-tracking tech available. The only downside is to get some of the best stuff, you’ll need a subscription to Fitbit Premium. This deal has been running for a couple weeks now and is also available at Amazon.

If you’re not a fan of screens, check out this little smart speaker from Google. Google Assistant is my favorite smart assistant for the kitchen, because it’s so good at conversions. Don’t believe me? Ask it what three cups is in liters. It’s the best basic Google Assistant speaker around.

Roku Express 4k and Roku remote

The Express 4K Plus allows you to play high-resolution 4K content in HDR10 (if your TV supports it). There are better and more capable Rokus you can buy for modern 4K TVs (see our guide to picking the right Roku for your TV), but get this one if you want to spend as little as possible.
