Walmart is removing inflation on Easter staples to help customers save money this year.
According to a company news release, nearly two-thirds (65%) of Walmart customers reported they expect inflation to impact their Easter celebrations. To help customers stay on budget without making sacrifices, the retailer is offering an entire Easter meal for less than $8 per person and curated Easter baskets for under $20.
“We have made sure that our customers can not only get their entire meal at a great price at Walmart, but we’re also offering amazing prices on the seasonal extras that really add to the holiday celebrations and memory-making,” said Julie Barber, executive vice president, general merchandise, Walmart U.S.
Here are Walmart’s biggest price drops just in time for Easter.
Easter Meal
This year, Walmart is offering a curated Easter meal at a price lower than last year’s. The meal features everything from ham and sweet potatoes to all the ingredients for deviled eggs, apple pie and more. The meal can serve up to 10 people and is available for an average price of less than $8 per person.
Easter meal savings are available in-store and online through March 31, according to the retailer.
Baskets
You can put your own Easter basket together or purchase a pre-made basket — with candy, accessories and paper grass — for under $20. Walmart sells several themed baskets, including baskets in various colors, mermaid fabric bins, Hello Kitty, Frozen and Spiderman plush ball gift sets, unicorn backpacks, green camo hats and more all pre-filled with toys, candy and other goodies for $15.
Decor and Party Supplies
Hosting an Easter get-together this year? Walmart dropped the price on Easter table runners, Easter wall and table decor, garden flags, porch welcome signs and more. There’s even a 70-inch glowing Easter Bunny inflatable marked down to $38.80 from $55.87 on Walmart.com.
Candy
Walmart hasn’t marked down all of its candy, but you can find large bags of assorted candies and chocolates for $20 and under. Packages of Peeps are under $1.50 and a simple chocolate Easter Bunny costs as little as $1.24.
Egg Hunt
Egg hunts are an Easter must if you have kids. Walmart dropped the price on several baskets, and if you’re hosting a large Easter egg hunt, you can buy a pack of 2,000 fillable multicolor plastic eggs for $139.99 (down from $159.99) on Walmart.com.
If you prefer to decorate and hide real eggs, a dozen eggs costs $2.64, or a pack of 60 Great Value large white eggs costs $12.80. Walmart also sells egg decorating kits starting at $1.16.
Toys and Plushes
Besides Easter meal staples, Walmart’s biggest price reductions are on Easter toys and plushies. A Blue plush doll was marked down from $41.99 to $19.97, and a Hello Kitty Easter Bunny Squishmallow now costs $12.98, down from $28.99. There are also bubble lawnmowers for $14.99 (down from $49.99), bubble machines for $15.99 (down from $59.99) and other low-cost basket stuffers.
