Walmart’s official Black Friday sale doesn’t kick off until Nov. 25, but it’s been rolling out the early deals for weeks now. That means you won’t have to wait to start saving big on tech, home goods and much more. The bargains are in full swing right now, and CNET’s shopping experts have rounded up some of the very best offers below so you don’t miss out. Today, Nov. 18, you can score a rare $50 discount on the Meta Quest 3S, pick up the Beats Solo Buds for a record-low $39 and grab yourself a KitchenAid Ultra 3-speed hand mixer for just $35.
If you’re looking to dip your toe into the world of VR, the Meta Quest 3S is a great place to start. It’s the best affordable headset on the market, and you can pick it up for even less with this early Black Friday offer. Its graphics aren’t quite as sharp as the full-size Quest 3, but it still supports all the
“same gaming and mixed reality powers.” This deal also comes with a free three-month trial of Meta Horizon Plus, as well as a copy of Batman: Arkham Shadow — a $50 value.
Beats’ Solo Buds are the most affordable Apple-designed earbuds on the market and some of our favorite budget earbuds to date — and this deal drops them back down to a record-low. They’re fairly basic and don’t have any noise-canceling capabilities, but they offer decent sound for the price and solid voice call performance. They boast a respectable 18-hour battery life, and while the case doesn’t have a built-in battery, you can charge them by connecting to your phone via USB-C.
You should also note that these earbuds actually list for $80, so you’re really saving over $40. However, this deal only applies to the ivory color variant.
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, it’s officially baking season. And if you’re tired of whipping stiff peaks by hand, you’ll want to grab this helpful KitchenAid hand mixer while it’s 30% off. It has three speeds for gentle mixing and aggressive whipping, and you can eject the beaters with the push of a button. Plus, the cord swivels to either side, and you can lock it in place so it stays out of the way while you’re cooking.
