With Amazon's annual Prime Day sales event right around the corner, competing retailers are turning up the heat on their own sales to lure shoppers away - which is why Walmart just announced "Walmart Deals," one of its largest sales of the year.

Walmart's alternative Prime Day deals just dropped with deals like a $20 Sam's Club membership, a $59 iced coffee maker and much more.

The best headphones for most new iPhone users are at their lowest price ever at Walmart, even less than Amazon's Prime Day sale.

One more thing I found while ping-ponging around Walmart’s sale pages this week: This OB2 scanner from Nexpow. It’s going for $28.79, a great deal off its list price of $79.99, and has far more functionality than any of the $30 bottom-shelf units you’re going to find on the rack at an auto parts store. Could be worth a look!

The figures apply across all online retailers for Amazon Prime Days. Tariffs and economic uncertainty are on the minds of shoppers as they prepare for Amazon's summer Prime Day sales. But at least one company is forecasting that sales for the online sales event will break records as budget-conscious shoppers look for deals.
