Ahead of Black Friday, yearly subscriptions to Walmart Plus are 50% off
Walmart has several waves of Black Friday deals coming up, the first of which begins on Nov. 11, followed by two others happening Nov. 25 and Dec. 1. You can get three hours of early access to each of those deal waves through its website and through the Walmart app — but only by being a Walmart Plus member. This will let you casually browse for the gifts that you’re after without feeling like you’re competing with shoppers to get the deals before they sell out.
If that sounds like a luxury, Walmart is offering a big 50% discount on the membership until Dec. 2, reducing the cost to $49 for a year. In addition to granting you early access to deal events during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, there are Walmart Plus-exclusive deals you’ll have access to throughout the year. A membership also ensures free shipping, gas discounts, a Paramount Plus subscription, discounts at Burger King, and more.
In case you’re waiting until the last possible moment to grab a discounted subscription, Walmart spokesperson Gabby Ach confirmed to Polygon that those who wait to buy a Walmart Plus subscription until an early access deal period begins will still get instant access to those deals.
