The calendar may only say October, but it's feeling a lot like Christmas this week. The Walmart Holiday Deals event is officially live (alongside Amazon Prime Day) and there are discounts upon discounts to take advantage of at the mega-retailer. Need a new TV? They have those on sale! Looking to upgrade your vacuum? Yup, they have those, too. Air fryers, earbuds, luggage? Check, check and check. Thanks to jaw-dropping deals, you can save on everything from laptops and travel gear to fashion essentials and even Halloween decor.

With that in mind, let's get a game plan going. There are literally thousands of deals, so while you could browse aimlessly until you find something you love, it's probably smarter to have a strategy. And that's where we come in. We've been combing the Walmart Holiday Deals selection for hours and hours and have found tons of incredible bargains. This bestselling 13-piece nonstick cookware set is just $90 (that's over $200 off), while Emeril Lagasse's popular air fryer is down to $60 (the lowest price we've seen). Want more? We also spotted this Shark vacuum — a favorite with readers! — for only $97 (that's over $100 off). There's even a rarely-on-sale Apple MacBook Air for $649 (a savings of $50).

The hottest items are sure to sell out quickly, so if you see something you like, add it to your cart and complete the checkout process ASAP. And one last thing before you go: Walmart is adding new deals every day during the six-day sale (it ends on Sunday, October 13), so check back tomorrow for more of the best markdowns we discovered. We'll be scouring the site for can't-miss deals all week long.
