Walmart has announced the return of Walmart Deals in June, which it scheduled to overlap with Amazon’s summer Prime Day event.
The one-week summer sales event will also coincide with Target Circle Deal Days. Walmart said eligible Walmart+ members will have early access to an online-only “curated assortment of high-demand” product drop in the first 24 hours of the event, while supplies last. The event will also feature deals on brands, product categories and back-to-school essentials, according to Walmart.
This Walmart Deals promotional period comes earlier than last year, when it ran from July 8 to July 13. It also runs longer than both Amazon’s and Target’s overlapping sales periods this summer.
Walmart is No. 2 in the Top 2000. The database is Digital Commerce 360’s ranking of North America’s online retailers by their annual ecommerce sales.
Walmart is also No. 8 in the Global Online Marketplaces. That database ranks the top such marketplaces by third-party gross merchandise value (GMV).
The retailer is among the “Big Four” Mass Merchants that Digital Commerce 360 covers in depth as part of the newly published State of American Ecommerce Report.
When is Walmart Deals 2026?
Walmart Deals starts online at midnight ET on Monday, June 22, and in stores at 6 a.m. local time, the retailer announced. It will run through Sunday, June 28.
The retailer is not requiring a membership for consumers to access its promotions. However, Walmart+ loyalty program members will get a head start online.

- $1 trial members
- Free trial W+ Student
- W+ Assist members.
