Walmart’s biggest sale of the year (so far) kicks off alongside Amazon Prime Day on July 8. While you don’t need a Walmart+ subscription to shop the discounts during Walmart’s sale, members get five-hour early access starting July 7 at 4 PM PT / 7 PM ET. Ahead of the sale, Walmart is offering a 50% discount on a full year of Walmart+, dropping the price to only $49 (was $98).
Walmart+ 1-Year Membership
$49 (was $98)
Considering some of the best gaming, tech, and collectible deals routinely sell out during the early access portion of Walmart sales–or within minutes of the official start time–the membership can make it a lot easier to secure the deals you’re eyeing. Outside of being able to shop Walmart Deals 2025 five hours early, a Walmart+ membership has proven useful for restock events on popular products. In recent weeks, this has included the Nintendo Switch 2 and Pokemon Trading Card Game releases.
But there are other, year-round benefits that make Walmart+ a great subscription service. Here are the highlights:
- Free shipping on all online orders
- Free delivery from local stores ($35 minimum)
- 1-Year Paramount+ Essential membership ($60 value)
- Save 10 cents per gallon on fuel
- Early access to big sales and product restocks
The free shipping on online orders is similar to Amazon Prime. Orders are typically delivered within two days, though one- and even same-day delivery are regular occurrences.
The free delivery from local stores perk is an even larger benefit, depending on your proximity to a brick-and-mortar store. Many subscribers can get their entire grocery orders delivered. But even if your Walmart doesn’t have a full supermarket, it’s still nice to be able to get free delivery on random products you’d normally have to drive to the store to buy. Local delivery is often fulfilled the same day you place your order, and you can schedule the time slot when making your purchase.
