In response to Amazon Prime day this year, a longgg list of retailers are trying to beat the online marketplace at its own game since everyone is shopping from their couch more than ever. Now through October 15th, Walmart’s giving Prime Day a run for its money with The Big Save, and it’s a boon for kids toys, gaming, and all the things moms need too (we’re talking 50% off Instant Pots and Hunter rain boots).

While all the deals happening right now are beyond hard to keep up with (even pro shoppers like us are overwhelmed!), we have to admit this sale extravaganza aligns perfectly with all our holiday shopping needs. And for parents, that means toys, toys, and more toys.

Oh, and ICYMI, Walmart also just launched its own version of Amazon Prime with Walmart+. The membership gives you same-day unlimited deliveries on everything from groceries to gadgets, member prices on fuel, and mobile check-out in stores. You can sign up here for your free 15-day trial. After your trial, it’s $98 a year or $12.95 a month.

From STEM toys to LEGO sets and gaming consoles, Walmart’s The Big Save event is here to save the day and take the load off your wallet. Ahead, check out the can’t miss deals on toys that kids will be over the moon about this holiday season.
