Walmart drops huge deals for Black Friday:  AirPods, HP laptop discounts and more

Halloween and Election Day may be behind us, but Thanksgiving (and a little holiday called Black Friday) are coming in hot. Walmart’s Black Friday sale officially kicked off this week with early deals that’ll get you ready for a) hosting season b) gift giving and c) everything in between.

For starters, there’s a Shark Navigator upright vac for less than half price ($97, down from $199). Then, get a soul-restoring, rib-sticking feast started with this Hamilton Beach slow cooker for just $35 (was $53). While that’s bubbling away, make the most of that early sundown and nip in the air with an hour spent out on the patio gazing into this mesmerizing propane fire pit ($250 off at just $150). Post-dinner, kick back with your new 55-inch Samsung TV, its QLED picture looking almost as brilliant as you for scoring a $1,000 markdown, or play a game of Sorry (it’s down to just $5!).

And, if you’ve been on the fence about Walmart+, now’s the time to sign up. Through, December 2, you can purchase a one-year membership for only $49 — that’s 50% off!

Best Walmart deals this week

Best Walmart deals: Apple

It’s not too late to do some Apple picking — though in this case, the “orchard” in question is, well, Walmart. The mega-retailer has a plethora of not-actually-edible gems on sale now, including longtime favorites like AirPods, Macbook Airs and the iPad Mini.

Walmart

We’re sure you’re familiar with how fantastic AirPods are — but if you’d like a refresher, we’re here to help. These bestselling earbuds have hundreds of thousands of five-star ratings, thanks to their clear, rich sound quality and convenient cord-free design. Plus they’re easy to use and connect to any of your other Apple devices. Nab them while they’re 30% off.

Think this is just a slightly larger version of your phone? Think again. With a 3:2 aspect ratio compared to the iPhone’s 2:1, the iPad Mini is much wider and, for those who use their tablets to read, can fit more text and feels more like a book or magazine in your hand. Speaking of “hand-y,” it’s much less cumbersome than the full-size iPad, making it great for travel or slipping into a backpack for your commute.
