The Black Friday 2021 shopping bonanza is upon us, with retailers already vying for your attention. If you’ve been shopping for Black Friday deals in the past few years, you already know the sales don’t happen only on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

The big retailers reveal their ad catalogs weeks ahead of the big shopping weekend. Or, the ads leak well in advance. Furthermore, Black Friday discounts have moved online, with more people than ever shopping from home, especially during the pandemic. This allows retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart to host early Black Friday sales throughout November, with some discounts remaining even after the Thanksgiving weekend.

Walmart is one of the retailers pitching plenty of early Black Friday deals. And the Walmart Black Friday ad also contains some of the first significant discounts that are available now leading up to Black Friday.

When is Walmart’s Black Friday 2021 sale?

Black Friday

falls on November 26th this year, when most stores will open their doors early in the morning, Walmart included. However, shoppers can take advantage of Walmart’s Black Friday deals several days before then. The main Walmart Black Friday event started online on Monday, November 22nd at 7:00 p.m. ET. That’s when many of the deals in the Black Friday ad below became available to buyers.

On top of that, Walmart Plus members got exclusive early access to online deals, as the company’s catalog explains. You’ll get to shop deals four hours before everyone else, similar to how Prime deals work on Amazon.

While some of the deals below will not be available until next week, which is Black Friday week, Walmart is hosting several early sales that you can take advantage of right now.

Walmart’s early deals event

The Walmart ad focuses on the retailer’s Black Friday Deals for Days event. However, it also highlighted some of the most anticipated electronics deals available online and in stores in the final days of Black Friday.

As always with Black Friday ad leaks, the prices below might not be active on Walmart.com or in stores just yet. You can follow along with some as the week goes along too. Some of the deals might have only been available earlier in the week, but they’ll likely return in the coming days, especially during the final week.

You’ll also want to keep track of Walmart’s smartphone deals this Black Friday. The retailer promises up to $750 in eGift Cards with select Apple iPhones and Samsung phones in the ad. The iPhone 13 series and Galaxy Z Fold 3 are both included in the deal. The iPhone 12 series gets a few exciting deals as well, as you’ll see below. Separately, Samsung has a few exciting Black Friday deals for its 2021 foldables as well.

Also notable in Walmart’s ad were the mentions of the Xbox Series X and PS5. The consoles are sold out everywhere, so don’t expect any discounts. Walmart had them for a brief moment but they are currently out of stock in most places. If you can’t save on the actual hardware, you might score plenty of discounts on games, as seen below. We’ve been trying to keep track of where the PS5 is back in stock and it has been hard.

Other highlights in the ad include the $89 AirPods 2, which is a steal at this price. The AirPods Pro will drop to $159 at Walmart. Finally, the Apple Watch Series 3 will be $109, which could be an excellent entry-level wearable for many people.
