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

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:

Beats, now owned by Apple, remains a household name in the world of head-fi, but you don’t need to shell out hundreds to enjoy that bassy punch. The urBeats3 headphones are the perfect no-nonsense pair of earbuds you can take with you anywhere (although somewhat ironically, the 3.5mm audio jack means you can’t use them with newer iPhones). Walmart has them for just $35 right now, down $25 from their usual price of around 60 bucks.
