Our favorite early Black Friday Walmart deals
- Apple MacBook Air 13.3-inch M1 Laptop for $599 (save $100): ZDNET first reviewed the M1 MacBook Air back in 2020 and then again in 2022, and both times concluded that the model is a solid option for users who want to keep the convenience of a lighter, portable model without sacrificing efficiency. Apple products rarely go on sale, so this is a deal worth checking out.
Roomba j7+ for $699 (save $301): ZDNET’s robot vacuum reviewer called the Roomba j7+ a “life-changing robot vacuum” because of its impressive suction power, self-emptying capabilities, smart mapping technology, and more. Because of its advanced features, it typically costs a whopping $899, but you can take $101 off that price today.
Apple Watch Series 9 45mm GPS + Cellular for $329 (save $70): Even though Apple released its Watch Series 10 last month, last year’s Series 9 is still a very competitive model, packed with many of the latest and greatest features, and now is the perfect time to buy.
- Dyson V12 Detect Slim Cordless Vacuum for $400 (save $250): This is a great option if you are in the market for a more traditional vacuum instead of a robot vacuum. This model is slim, cordless, powerful, and a rare find, especially because Dyson products don’t go on sale often.
- Apple AirPods Max for $478 (save $71): The AirPods Max feature a sleek look and fun colors to choose from while offering instant connectivity, multi-device switching, Transparency Mode, Spatial Audio, and exceptional sound. Because the AirPods Max are over-the-ear headphones (unlike the AirPods Pro), you can completely avoid them falling out of your ear, and the lightweight feel guarantees comfort for hours.
- Acer Nitro 31.5-inch Curved Gaming Monitor for $150 (save $99): Monitors can help upgrade any gaming or even work setup but usually cost a pretty penny. Despite boasting impressive features such as a curved, tiltable, anti-glare, 31.5-inch screen, you can buy the Acer Nitro Curved monitor today for under $200.
- Walmart+ account for $49 (save $49): The Walmart+ membership comes with many perks, including free grocery delivery, free shipping with no order minimum, Paramount+ streaming, early access to deals and deal events, and more. This is especially beneficial if you frequently make purchases from Walmart.
