LANSING, Mich. — Walmart recently shared our plans to serve customers during the holidays, including offering more ways to save in addition to our everyday low prices. The biggest shopping event of the year, Black Friday, will be no exception, and this month, they’re giving customers a little something extra with two additional events to get everything on their list at exciting prices.
As always, customers who look forward to shopping after their Thanksgiving meal can count on us for an incredible event in our stores. And, for those customers who just can’t wait until then, we’re hosting two early shopping events in November to give them a head start on saving. Here’s what we have planned:
The Main Event in Stores and on Walmart.com
This year, our Black Friday event starts on Walmart.com at 10 p.m. EST on Wednesday, Nov. 27. In Walmart stores, our event begins at 6 p.m. local time on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 28.
I’m confident customers will find the items – and savings – they’re looking for from Walmart on Black Friday. That’s because our team has spent the last year pulling together great items from top brands our customers know and love at amazing prices. And, we pride ourselves on having plenty of our event items available, so customers won’t leave disappointed.
No matter how customers choose to shop with us on Black Friday – whether that’s online or in stores – they’ll discover hundreds of must-have deals, such as:
- Apparel: Kids’ 2-Piece Pajamas ($4.75 each, special buy), Memory Foam Fashion Boots ($12, save up to $12.98)
- Electronics: Apple AirPods with charging case ($129, save $15), onn.® 40” Class 1080p Roku Smart TV only at Walmart ($98, special buy), Samsung 16GB storage Chromebook 3 ($99, save $60), Philips 65” Class 4K Android Smart TV ($278, special buy), up to $700 in Walmart eGift Cards on select smartphones ($450 gift card for activation, $250 for a trade-in)
- Home: Instant Pot 6-Qt. Duo ($49, save $30), iRobot 670 Wi-Fi Vacuum ($197, save $47), Hotel Style 1,100 Thread Count Sheet Set ($24, special buy)
- Toys: Disney Frozen 2 Fold & Go Arendelle Castle only at Walmart ($40, special buy), Hover-1 All-Star Hoverboard ($89, save $59), LEGO Classic or Duplo Creative Box ($20, special buy)
Great Black Friday Prices, Check. Making it Easier to Shop, Check.
On top of delivering incredible Black Friday savings, we know it’s also important for customers to save valuable time and to be able to plan for the big event. There are a few ways we’re making Black Friday shopping in our stores easier and more convenient this year.
First is our Store Map feature. Every day of the year, customers can quickly and easily find everything on their shopping list with this feature on the Walmart app. Customers are loving it, and we’re making special updates for Black Friday.
Starting soon, customers can open the Walmart app and find a Black Friday Store Map, specific to the store they plan to shop. The in-store locations of the most sought-after deals are live today, and the locations of all items will be available a few hours before our Black Friday event starts in stores.
We’ll make it extra easy for customers to find their items with color-coding across our Black Friday ad, on the Walmart app and in stores. For example, say a customer has that great onn. 40” TV on their must-get list for Black Friday. Our Black Friday ad shares the price with customers and tells them what color that specific TV corresponds to on the Black Friday Store Map in the app. From there, customers can search for the TV in the app so when they get to the store for our Black Friday event, they can find it quickly.
Second, just in case customers choose not to use the Black Friday Store Map feature in the app, don’t worry – we have them covered. When they get to the store on Black Friday, shoppers can look for associate vests, signs and balloons that match the color of their item from the Black Friday ad to help navigate them to the deals they are looking for.
And third, our time-saving Check Out With Me associates will be available throughout the store on Black Friday at all Walmart Supercenters. Check Out With Me gives customers the option of bypassing the regular checkout lines and paying for everything right where they are shopping.
