Amazon Prime Day 2022 is soon, but there's good reason to shop at Walmart now. The giant retailer recently told investors that it has an excess of inventory of big-ticket items such as televisions. Target and Best Buy have told their investors something similar -- they have too much stuff on hand. Retailers are eager to get rid of their overstock right now, which means you'll find lower prices on crave-worthy tech and more.

When is Walmart Deals for Days 2022?

Last year, Walmart held its own major shopping event to compete with Amazon Prime Day. Called Deals for Days, the Walmart sale included big discounts on TVs, vacuums, kitchen appliances and more.

Walmart has not announced that it will hold a similar sale to compete with Amazon Prime Day in 2022. That said, a number of big-ticket items are already on deep discount at Walmart now, ahead of Prime Day. It's also worth noting that Walmart often matches Amazon pricing on many popular finds, including the Apple Watch and Apple AirPods.

If you're a regular Walmart shopper, you should consider upgrading your shopping experience to Walmart+ subscription. Members get access to exclusive sales events at Walmart and enjoy free two-day shipping on your walmart.com purchases. Walmart+ subscriptions cost $12.95 per month or $98 per year; a 30-day free trial is available.
