The first wave of holiday deals has arrived. Walmart is taking on Amazon's forthcoming October Prime Day with a deals event of its own. The Walmart Rollbacks Sale is now live and set to run through October 13. Not only has it started a day before Amazon's sale, but it also ends 24 hours later. 

Unlike Amazon's sale — which is a Prime member exclusive — the Walmart Rollbacks Sale will be open to the general public. It's unclear if there will be any exclusive deals for Walmart Plus members ($98/year), but members do enjoy free shipping on all purchases with no minimum required. 

Walmart's sale event includes sitewide discounts on everything from the newly released Apple Watch 8 to the latest Barbie dollhouses. It's worth noting that none of these events are proper Black Friday deals, but rather early holiday sales designed to get consumers to shop early. Here's everything you need to know about the Walmart Rollback sale.

A 55-inch 4K TV at this price point isn't unheard of, but it's pretty rare to see (especially outside of any major holidays). This TV features HDR support and a 60Hz panel, which isn't ideal for gaming, but should be good for everyday use if you're on a budget and don't require top-of-the-line performance.
