Skip the lines, but not the deals. Join Walmart+ to get early access to Black Friday sales.

With Black Friday approaching, it's time to make your holiday shopping game plan. Not up for elbowing your way through crowds at 5 a.m.? With a little planning, those days are over.

Your favorite retailers, like Walmart, are sensitive to your shopping woes. When you join Walmart+, you'll be able to access benefits that will help you tremendously this holiday season.

Why you should sign up for Walmart+ before Black Friday

Sign up for Walmart+ before Black Friday to score early shopping access to Walmart's online Black Friday sales. Last year, Walmart+ members got a full seven hours of early access to all three of their "Black Friday Deals for Days" sales events. The exact 2023 dates haven't been released yet, but they should be announced soon. Stay tuned to BlackFriday.com we'll update all the Walmart Black Friday sale details as soon as they are released.

Early online access to these events means you can get your items before they sell out (while still relaxing on your couch). If that isn't reason enough, Walmart+ members get free shipping with no order minimum on almost everything at Walmart.com.

How much does Walmart+ cost?

  • Annual plan costs $98 for one year, equivalent to $8.17 per month.
  • Monthly plan costs $12.95 per month.

Walmart+ offers two payment plans: annual or monthly, and you have the option to switch between plans. Walmart also offers a free 30 day trial of Walmart+ for new members. Plans will automatically renew, so to avoid charges for a new term, you must cancel before the end of the current term.

P.S. Right now, you can save 50% on a membership!
