Walmart end-of-year clearance sale: Best deals on audio, TVs, gaming, and more

Lucas Coll
By

Christmas day has come and gone and a new year — and in fact, a whole new decade — will soon be upon us. And although the big holiday sales have wrapped up, it’s still the season for deals and steals as the big retailers like Walmart are eager to clear out much of their remaining inventory (and to lure in shoppers who have gift cards and Christmas money to burn).

We expect these post-holiday sales to last through the start of 2020, and Walmart already has its own end-of-year clearance blowout running right now with juicy discounts on everything from home essentials to electronics. There’s an ocean of stuff to sort through, however — Walmart is definitely in the aforementioned camp of retailers trying to clear some space on their shelves — so it can be a time-consuming hassle to actually sniff out the legitimately good deals among all the junk.

Skip the goose chase and let us save you some time. We’ve already combed through the Walmart end-of-year clearance sale offerings to bring you a large handful of nice deals on name-brand electronics like headphones and TVs (among other things). If you’re one of the good boys or girls who have some Christmas cash to spend, or if you’re just looking for some last-minute tech deals before we ring in 2020, then read on:

Best PS5 SSD deals: Add more storage to your PS5 from $120
A 2TB WD Black

When the PlayStation 5 was originally released, it had the option to expand its internal memory, which was quite small at the time at a little under 900GBs. Of course, the issue is that there weren't any SSDs that worked on the new standard the PS5 was using, so even if you wanted to upgrade, you couldn't. Luckily, since then, there have been a lot of great SSDs for the PS5 that have been released, and upgrading its storage is pretty easy and can be done by pretty much anybody, provided they have a screwdriver. So, whether you picked up a PS5 from one of the PS5 deals or already have a PS5 and want to upgrade, be sure to check out the SSDs that will work great for your PS5 below.
Our favorite PS5 SSD deal

It wasn't that long ago that you'd have to pay well over $100 to get an SSD for your PS5, and often, it'd be slower than the pricier alternatives. These days, you can buy a Samsung 980 Pro 1TB SSD with heatsink for just $120 from Best Buy, thereby saving $45 off the regular price of $165. The SSD offers speedy performance while also having its own nickel-coated high-end controller to help deliver effective thermal control. It means it won't overheat and performance won't be compromised. Being a PCIe Gen 4 SSD, you get twice the data transfer speed of PCIe Gen 3 which is useful. Offering maximum read speeds of 7,000 megabytes per second, it's a good upgrade to go alongside your existing hard drive with 1TB offering plenty of extra space at a shrewd price.
