The retail giant launched a Holiday Gift HQ to ease some of your holiday shopping anxiety. Not sure where to start? Go for something viral.
Viral gifts have been vetted by thousands (sometimes millions) of shoppers, and they cover all kinds of gifting categories — unique gifts, sentimental gifts, Secret Santa gifts, White Elephant gifts, last-minute gifts, stocking stuffers, gift ideas under $50 and gifts that are worth the splurge.
With that in mind, the more viral a product, the harder it might be to find. Luckily, Walmart has a huge selection of the hottest electronics, toys, beauty, fashion, cooking, fitness and entertainment gifts from tons of top brands including Sony, HP, Blackstone, LG, Microsoft, Owala, NordicTrack, Wilson, Samsung, PlayStation, Beats, Reebok, Crocs, Skechers, Coach, Marc Jacobs, Giorgio Armani and Dry Bar, along with Walmart-exclusive brands such as Joyspun, No Boundaries, Time & Tru, Beautiful by Drew, BH&G, Mainstays, Pioneer Woman, Scoop, Free Assembly and NOBO, plus celebrity brands from Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton and more.
