The best speaker deals of Walmart+ Week are still mostly at Amazon and Best Buy

Walmart+ Week is not the savings event for standout speaker deals.

UPDATE: Jun. 21, 2024, 9:35 a.m. EDT We've pulled all of the best speaker deals live on the fifth day of Walmart+ Week 2024 at Walmart and other retailers.

Walmart+ Week kicked off June 17, and to be honest, the deals just aren't dealing. We've had our eyes glued to Walmart.com waiting for the members-only sales event to wow us, and yet, we've been left scratching our heads.

Typically a Prime Day rival, Walmart+ Week showcases deals on all sorts of products, including TVs, robot vacuums, headphones, and speakers. But the speaker deals, in particular, on day four of the sale are still lacking.

If you're looking for a way to bump your favorite summer jams by the pool, at the campground, at a backyard barbecue, or practically anywhere else, Walmart+ Week (as it stands) is probably not your best bet. We'd recommend waiting until Prime Day if you want bigger savings on speakers. That being said, we still managed to scrounge up some discounts worth adding to your cart — they're just not exclusive to Walmart+ Week.

What is Walmart+ Week?

Just like Prime Day, Walmart+ Week is a members-only shopping event held annually. You'll need a Walmart+ membership in order to access the deals, which costs either $12.95 per month or $98 per year. If you're brand new to Walmart+, you can sign up for a free trial for 30 days and unlock access to some of the deals during the savings event.

Typically, the sale runs alongside Prime Day as a direct competitor. This year, Walmart is shaking things up. While Prime Day won't happen until July, Walmart+ Week is running from June 17 through June 23.

The best non-Walmart+ Week speaker deals

While we haven't seen any speaker deals exclusive to the Walmart+ Week sale, there are a few deals you can shop at Walmart, Amazon, and Best Buy that aren't tied to any official savings event. Here are the best ones we think you should check out. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Best speaker deal

JBL Boombox 3
$349.95 at Amazon
$499.95 Save $150.00

Why we like it

Reminiscent of the boombox of yesteryear (but with souped-up features), the JBL Boombox 3 is the life of any party. While it weighs just under 15 pounds, it's equipped with a top handle to make it easy to tote around wherever you go. Bring it to the beach, the pool, the park, or the campground and enjoy 24 hours of your favorite tunes — even in the rain. Rated IP67 dustproof and waterproof, this thing is nearly indestructible when it comes to the elements. It regularly goes for $499.95, but if you pick it up at Amazon, you'll only pay $349.95. Walmart has the speaker listed for $399.95, and it's from a sketchy third-party seller. We recommend grabbing it at Amazon instead.
