What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is an annual two-day shopping event for Amazon Prime members. This year the sale will be held on Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13. The shopping event is typically met with doorbuster deals on some of our favorite products—think huge savings on headphones, robot vacuums, air fryers and so much more. The exclusive 48-hour sale is available to both new and existing Prime members. Not an Amazon Prime subscriber yet? Don't worry, there's still plenty of time to sign up.

What stores are offering Amazon Prime Day discounts?

Although Amazon Prime Day is exclusive to Amazon, plenty of other popular retailers typically offer similar sales. Last year, for instance, we saw price drops on select products at Walmart, Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, The Home Depot, Wayfair and Best Buy. If you don't have an Amazon Prime account it may be a good idea to shop alternate retailers that offer price matching services.

Right now, Walmart is already offering tons of deep discounts ahead of Amazon Prime Day. The mega retailer is marking down hundreds of items, including TVs, laptops, grills, air purifiers and more and the savings are seriously impressive.

When is Walmart running sales during Amazon Prime Day?

Walmart is already offering tons of markdowns across all categories ahead of Amazon Prime Day 2022. We expect the retailer to drop even more deals in the weeks leading up to Amazon Prime Day, which is expected to take place in July. During Amazon Prime Day proper we're anticipating doorbuster deals at Walmart. Last year, the retailer launched a massive Deals for Days sale which ran simultaneously with Prime Day and offered steep savings on smart home gadgets, vacuums and so much more.

Does Walmart price match on Amazon Prime Day?

Walmart.com offers price matching on select items sold at Amazon and other major retailers. In order to take advantage of Walmart's price match policy, the item you want to price match needs to be identical to the one on Walmart.com and must be in stock at both Walmart and the alternate retailer. It's important to note, however, that if a price decreases after you purchase it, Walmart will not offer price matching.

If you find a product at a lower price at a different retailer that's eligible for a price match under Walmart's policy, you'll need to contact Walmart Customer Care before placing your online order. Keep in mind, you can only only price match one product per day.

What are the best Prime Day-level deals at Walmart?

While Walmart is offering hundreds of impressive sitewide deals, some of the best discounts we've seen so far are on smart TVs, air fryers and laptops.

For instance, you can take home the Sony XR65A90J 65-inch A90J Series Bravia XR OLED 4K UHD Smart TV for just $2,699—a whopping $1,000 price cut from the full $3,699 list price. Ranking as one of the best TVs we've ever tested, the smart screen has incredible contrast and color and a user-friendly smart platform. 

Meanwhile, to make meal prep easier this summer, consider the Instant Pot Vortex Plus 10-quart 7-in-1 digital air fryer oven, down from $240 to just $134.90 right now. Perfect for making delicious calorie-conscious meals, the multi-use countertop appliance can air fry, roast, bake, broil, dehydrate and rotisserie cook food. 

Should I shop Walmart's competing Amazon Prime Day 2022 sale?

Whether you have smart tech, home goods or summer fashion finds on your shopping list, you should absolutely shop Walmart's competing Amazon Prime Day sale. The category-wide shopping event is a great opportunity to score customer-favorite brands for less. No matter what it is you're shopping for, you're guaranteed to find a deal worth snatching at Walmart. If you're not an Amazon Prime member, the sale may be especially worthwhile since you'll be able to enjoy rock bottom prices without having to sign up for an Amazon Prime membership.
