Summary

Walmart’s jumping into the Prime Day battle by launching its own mega-sale a day early—June 22nd to 28th—to outlast Amazon’s event and lure bargain hunters with deep discounts across electronics, back-to-school gear, and more. Walmart Plus members get exclusive early access, while Target’s Circle Days event runs concurrently, offering up to 45% off. With 43% of U.S. households planning to spend over $11 billion on Prime Day—and shoppers tightening belts amid inflation—Walmart’s pushing value hard. But with rising costs, its CFO warns higher prices may be coming soon, even as Q1 sales soared. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
