With only a few days left for holiday shopping, Walmart announces more big savings plans, now on the smaller and in some cases most requested gift items. Starting Saturday and through next week, stores will have incredible savings on last minute gifts, including a Monday through Wednesday offer of $8 Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters.
Speaking of $8 toys, Walmart is also rolling back the price on many perfect stocking-stuffer toys and last-minute gifts to $8 and adding a special offer with this year’s new iPod Nano to last through Christmas Eve.
Sat., Dec. 19: iPod Nano with $50 iTunes Gift Card
Walmart will offer the new 8GB iPod Nano for $145 with a free $50 iTunes gift card with purchase, while supplies last, starting this Saturday through Dec. 24.
While many parents remember when yo-yos and candy was the typical stocking stuffer, shoppers now say that stocking gifts today are going more hi-tech. Forty percent of moms say they will add in gift cards to stockings this year, and almost 45 percent of moms are planning to purchase music related gifts.
Sun., Dec. 20: $8 Toys and More Stocking Stuffers for Kids:
This weekend Walmart stores will introduce a new price message – $8 toys, at 20 – 50 percent savings, including:
- Jenga Hand Held game
- Barbie Fashionista Dolls
- Pixos Starter Pack
- Moon Sand kit
- Nerf-n-Force Sword

Mon. – Wed. Morning Events for Zhu Zhu Hamsters
Today, hundreds of thousands of these sought-after robotic hamsters are making their way to Walmart via airplanes and trucks across the country, as Walmart stores prepare to help find them a new home for Christmas.
Starting at 7 a.m. each morning of Dec 21, Dec 22 and Dec. 23 Walmart stores nationwide will un-cage the popular Zhu Zhu Hamsters in special morning sales events. Anticipating high interest, stores will be organizing lines in the hours before the 7 a.m. event each day as needed, and customers will be assigned numbers as lines build, as supplies last. Customers will be limited to one per person, and distributions will vary, with a minimum of 20 per day at smaller stores to more than 60 per day in most stores.
More Savings on Last Minute Gifts in Entertainment and Hardware
In addition to $8 toys, Walmart will be carrying a selection of favorite hit movies of the past, now on DVD, for only $4. In addition, Walmart’s savings of $10 on select video games and $19.96 Blu-ray hit movies of the season continues through Dec. 24.
Additional features to start this Sunday include an assortment of great Tools and Gifts for Dad, including:
- $5 Roadmaster 12-volt Heated Stainless Steel Vacuum Mug
