Walmart's Lego deals are better than they have any right to be this side of Black Friday
Harry Potter, Star Wars, and more get massive price cuts
Even though Black Friday and sales season proper is a month away, nobody seems to have told Walmart so far as Lego deals are concerned.
The retailer is currently slashing prices left and right on some of the best Lego sets drawn from ranges like Harry Potter and Star Wars. In fact, Walmart's Lego deals are doling out record low prices that I'm honestly surprised to see this side of November. As an example, you can currently pick up the most recent Hogwarts Castle kit for $135.95 at Walmart instead of almost $170. A few of the 2024 advent calendars have been slashed in price as well, not to mention lots of the Animal Crossing series.
In other words, it's well worth browsing the entire Walmart sale on Lego if you have time. If you don't, however, don't worry. I've rounded up my favorite offers of the bunch here, with insight into why these discounts are worth your time.
Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle & Grounds | $169.99 $135.95 at Walmart
Save $34 - Of all the discounts floating around at Walmart, this is the one which caught my eye most. I've never seen the kit for less than it is now, and even though there's a possibility it'll drop even further for Black Friday, there's no guarantee of that. The average price is closer to $150 as well, so this is a welcome blip.

✅ You don't want to pay/display the massive version
Don't buy it if:
❌ You already have the big one

Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar 2024 | $44.99 $35.99 at Walmart

Lego Harry Potter Advent Calendar 2024 | $44.99 $35.99 at Walmart

Save $12 - I've not seen the Super Mario foe for less, and that makes this a cracking deal on the whole. Seeing as it's usually closer to $58, I'm impressed. That's the kind of reduction I'd been expecting for Black Friday.

Lego Animal Crossing Isabelle's House Visit | $39.99 $31.95 at Walmart
Save $11 - While it isn't a massive price cut on the face of things, that's still the kit's lowest ever price. I'd say it's one of the best in the Animal Crossing range, so that discount is mighty tempting.
