This story is part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide on everything you need to know and how to make sure you get the best deal.

Amazon’s Prime Day starts on Tuesday, Oct. 13, but the cascade of sales have already started. Not to be outdone, Walmart is having its own blowout sale that runs now through Thursday, Oct. 15. The Walmart “Big Save” offers thousands of Prime Day and Black Friday-like deals, including electronics, home goods, toys, fashion and more. Walmart will offer free two-day shipping on orders over $35 for eligible items, and some orders will be eligible for next-day delivery or in-store pickup as well. (That’s if you haven’t already signed up for Walmart Plus, of course.)

Here are a few of the best deals you can take advantage of right now. Browse them below, but remember that there are more great deals to be had. We’ll be adding more of the best as we discover them, so check back often.
