Black Friday 2024 falls on Nov. 29 so we're about a month away from the Super Bowl of all shopping events. Walmart's Black Friday sale typically offers excellent year-end discounts on laptops, tablets, headphones, wearables, gaming gear, video games, TVs, and more.

I expect Walmart to announce its annual Black Friday Deals for Days event any day now. Just like last year, Walmart's Black Friday deals are likely to roll out in a series of events. Naturally, paid Walmart Plus members will get to shop for deals before the general public.

Last year, Walmart took 50% off its Plus membership as an incentive for new customers. I expect Walmart to bring this deal back for Black Friday 2024.

Black Friday falls on Nov. 29 this year and epic deals on the most-wanted holiday tech will be up for grabs. Don't want to wait? Browse our Black Friday 2024 hub for the best early discounts.

Here are 5 of my favorite early Walmart Black Friday deals happening now.
