If you have renovations coming up or just need to make some big buys before the year is over, it's time to plan your shopping strategy. Luckily, Walmart has a packed calendar of promotions lined up.

From sweet deals on electronics to home goods, holiday gifts, and everyday essentials, you're covered while you save money shopping at Walmart during the store's special events in 2025, including two ongoing events you might not be taking full advantage of right now.

Let's take a look at each sales event so you never miss a markdown.

Get a protection plan on all your appliances

Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.

Whether or not you’re a new homeowner, a home warranty from Choice Home Warranty could pick up the slack where insurance falls short and protect you against surprise expenses. If a covered system in your home breaks, you can call their hotline 24/7 to get it repaired.

For a limited time, you can get your first month free with a Single Payment home warranty plan.

Back-to-School Sale

From June 25th through August 25th

Walmart's yearly back-to-school sale is a lifesaver for families with school-aged kids. However, everyone can take advantage of this broad clearance on electronics and summer essentials, such as backpacks and stationery.

In the next ten days, check rollback prices online and in-store to stock up on the best deals on AirPods, tablets, or brand-name laptops under $300.

Labor Day Sale

From August 25th through September 1st

With the official end of summer just around the corner, Walmart is preparing to clear its stock of seasonal items, like outdoor furniture and gear.

To score up to 80% discounts on these and other items, including summer apparel and shoes, head over to Walmart starting August 25, but don't forget to compare prices online and in-store. You may be able to get even deeper discounts and renew your summer essentials for 2026.

Baby Days Sale

From September 1st through the 30th

This sale offers savings of 30–60% on baby and toddler products, like strollers, furniture, and clothes. It isn't just parents who can benefit from shopping for these items; others can also benefit.

If you're a caregiver to a small child or have big celebrations coming up, like a birthday or baby shower for a grandchild, remember to check weekly for rotating deals on items the future parents may have trouble affording, like a camera or car seat.

"Deals for Days" Event

From October 2nd through the 12th

As it did in 2024 to match Amazon's second Prime Day of the year, Walmart will likely host a "Deals for Days" sale in early October 2025. If you're a Walmart+ member, you'll be able to shop this event 12 hours ahead of the general public.

Why should you? You'll be able to get the lowest prices — up to 75% off — on products like TVs, cookware, fall flavors, kitchen appliances, and self-care items.

Shopping pro tip: This month's best deals

August is here, and with it comes the final stretch of summer. It’s a great time to soak up the season and scoop up hot deals before they fade. Look for savings on:

  • Travel and getaway must-haves
  • Back-to-school basics
  • Clearance swimwear and warm-weather styles
  • For grocery savings, grab peak-season produce, like tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, and berries

As retailers shift their focus to fall, August is the last chance to snag summer essentials at unbeatable prices. Shop smart now before the season (and the savings) slip away.

Black Friday Sale

First event: From November 10th through the 16th

Second event: From November 24th through the 30th

If you're planning to do your holiday shopping in November, you're in for a treat. Walmart is planning not one, but two Black Friday Sale events — with Walmart+ members having early access to the deals, similar to the "Deals for Days" event.

Whether you're buying for yourself or a family member, expect to save 70% or more on electronics, appliances, and home goods. To maximize your chances of scoring a sweet deal, plan two purchase windows to cover both waves and shop in-store early in the morning.

Cyber Monday Sale

November 30th through December 1st

Missed one of the Black Friday Sale waves? Walmart has you covered with its two-day Cyber Monday sale right before the start of Advent. This is the final push for major deals on electronics, vacuums, smartwatches, and more before Christmas, as long as you shop online.

Walmart+ members receive three hours of early online access to this event. You can also save 50% on annual memberships, making it a great early Christmas gift to yourself.

Christmas Clearance

December 26th through January 2026

Walmart's Christmas Clearance sale is perfect for renewing your Christmas decor on the cheap. Starting on Boxing Day, you can get 50-90% off on seasonal and festive items.

Just one caveat: Online stock is often limited, so you're better off shopping in-store. Don't just check the markdowns on December 26, either. Instead, return in the days before the new year for deeper discounts and check nearby stores if your location's inventory is sparse.

Walmart Clearance Outlet (ongoing)

The Walmart Clearance Outlet is the store's dedicated online and in-store section for deeply discounted overstocked, discontinued, or seasonal products. It's ideal for finding deals on electronics, furniture, apparel, decor, and groceries.

Since it's an ongoing event, you can always refer to it throughout the year, especially if you're a bargain hunter who doesn't mind deals on last season's items.

Weekly Rollback Pricing (ongoing)

In addition to these deals, Walmart offers shoppers frequent rollbacks, clearance updates, and daily deals. It's the best way for regular buyers to get bargains outside the store's major events, such as Black Friday.

Check out Walmart's Deals page weekly and look for rollback badges. If you pair them with coupon codes, you can save even more.

Quick tips: How to save on your grocery bill

Grocery shopping doesn't have to break the bank when you use the right strategies. Here are three quick tips for reducing food expenses:

  • Buy store brands instead of name brands whenever possible.
  • Always make sure to compare unit prices, not just sticker prices.
  • Join your store's loyalty program so you don’t miss out on member discounts.

Even though something like choosing coupons in your grocery store app can feel like an annoying task, the savings can really add up.

Walmart+ Week

Worthy of mention, this event gives Walmart+ members access to perks like free express delivery, daily deal bonuses, fuel discounts, and streaming trials. In 2025, it occurred between April 28 and May 4.

It's unclear whether the store is planning another run before the end of the year, with the event page stating that "Walmart+ Week is over for now." However, it's a good idea to keep an eye out for any changes in the coming months.

Bottom line

With these sales events, it's easier than ever to save money on essentials and knock off a few hundred dollars from big-ticket items that have been on your wishlist.

Regardless of your needs, you'll find the right deal when you keep an eye on the retail giant's sale schedule. For best results, keep an eye on Walmart's Deals page. You can also prepare wishlists in advance and spread purchases across different events to maximize your chances of scoring the best deals in multiple categories.
