July is a big month for major sales, and Walmart is no exception. The retailer just announced the return of Walmart Deals, a six-day savings event starting July 8 that — for the first time — will be available both in stores and online, according to a press release. The best part is that you'll find markdowns across nearly every category, so everyone can score big this season.

Wondering what hot picks are on the summer lineup? According to the press release, you'll find several smart TVs for a fraction of the price, brand-name appliances including a Dyson vacuum cleaner and even watches for men and women up to 59% off. But that's not all! Walmart is making back-to-school shopping easier than ever with its early return of rollbacks on supplies, backpacks, laptops, lunchboxes and first-day fashion. A 24-count of Crayola Crayons will only set you back 50 cents — seriously!

While we wait for Walmart Deals to officially start, keep scrolling to learn more about the savings event. Plus, browse through early discounts you can shop right now.

What is the Walmart Deals event?

Walmart Deals is a six-day savings event during which shoppers can access “thousands of deals” on electronics, home, fashion, toys, beauty and more — including back-to-school essentials like outfits and supplies — on walmart.com and (for the first time!) in stores. According to the release, the sale will feature steep discounts on top brands such as Samsung, Vizio, Dyson, Sharpie and more.

When is the Walmart Deals event?

This year, the Walmart Deals event is six days long, beginning on Tuesday, July 8 and running through Sunday, July 13. For those who prefer to shop from home, online sales will drop at at 12 a.m. ET, while in-store deal hunting will start when your local Walmart opens on July 8.

Eager to save? Shoppers with a Walmart Plus membership will get exclusive early access to all of the deals, beginning Monday, July 7 at 7 p.m. ET, a night before the event opens to the public. Walmart Plus is a great option for those who are eyeing popular items that may be more likely to sell out.

Upon signing up, Walmart Plus members can choose to pay $12.95 monthly or $98 annually. If you qualify for government assistance, you can get 50% off an annual membership through Walmart+ Assist.

What can shoppers expect during the Walmart Deals event?

This year, you can expect sales across style, tech and home, as well as deals on back to school items. Think: $100 off a Samsung smart monitor or a Dyson vacuum, major discounts on men's and women's watches and even crayons for less than $1!
