Not to be outdone, Walmart and Target have announced they will hold big sales that will compete with Amazon Prime Day.
Amazon announced last week that Prime Day(s) will be held June 21-22.
Walmart’s “Deals for Days” will kick off June 20 and continue through June 23.
Target’s “Deal Days” are June 20-22.
Although Walmart has not yet released sale items, shoppers can expect to find discounts similar to Black Friday on electronics, laptops and tablets. According to laptopmag.com, one of those deals will be on the HP Chromebook 11 on sale for $159.
Walmart will have deals online and in stores across all categories — electronics, computers, toys, home, patio and garden, auto and more.
Walmart also has a membership similar to Prime called Walmart+. Walmart+ is $12.95 a month, $98 a year and offers free shipping with no minimum, savings on gas and more.
Walmart last week announced it will be closed on Thanksgiving Day for the second year. The retailer also said it has created an app for employees and will give all of its 740,000 employees a free Samsung smartphone to access the app and for personal use.
Walmart ranks No. 3 on the Transport Topics Top 100 list of the largest private carriers in North America.
