I’ve covered Walmart’s sales for over three years — these are the best deals to shop from the October Walmart Deals event

Walmart Deals is here, offering discounts across categories like beauty, appliances, tech and more, now through Oct. 11. While the October Walmart Deals event is open to all Walmart shoppers, Walmart+ members get exclusive access to a special set of perks like free and fast delivery and streaming subscriptions. I frequently cover shopping events like Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday as a writer for NBC Selected, so I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. Below, I rounded up the best Walmart deals, all of which are highly rated and at least 20 percent off. I’ll frequently update this list with newly-added deals throughout the Walmart Deals event.
