We can all agree, 2020 has been a doozy. But it’s not over yet, and this holiday season can turn this wacky year on its head if we put in a little effort. You’re busy, so the effort is on our side.
To make the end of a chaotic year a little smoother, we’ve teamed up with Walmart to bring you 30 Days of Savings—a first look at great deals every day—so you can get a head start ticking items off that shopping list, and maybe even scoop up a (deeply discounted) treasure for yourself.
You’ll get a steady stream of irresistible deals on everything from TVs and toys to beauty products and earbuds. Today’s goodies below.
1. A spectacular VIZIO 50-inch TV for $298
This VIZIO 50" Class 4K UHD LED Quantum Smart TV has so many bells and whistles, you may not be able to hear Santa’s sleigh. Great color, crisp audio, and its Smart Cast feature makes for quick access to all your streaming apps. It also connects to your smart-home devices, so you can control it with a voice command.
One happy user has it all figured out: “This TV is bright and colorful, easy to connect to apps and streams content like Mandalorian on Disney+. I'm using it as a display to work from home with HDMI. The Airplay feature lets me send information to the TV from my iPad or phone. Easy, easy, easy. Thanks Vizio!” For $52 off—less than $300—this feature-packed high-quality TV is a bargain.
