Walmart is Restocking PS5 Tomorrow: Here’s How to Get Yours
Walmart will be offering PS5 consoles beginning today at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET. The console drop is part of its upcoming Walmart+ weekend, and as the name suggests, only Walmart+ members will get access to new PS5 stock this time around.
There are two ways to get Walmart+: you can either pay a $98 annual fee, or you can sign up for the month-to-month $12.95/ month alternative. Both methods are perfectly acceptable if you’re looking to get a better chance to secure a PS5, and you can even save money, too. Walmart is offering users $25 off your next $50+ order when you join as a monthly member, or $50 off your next $75+ order when you join as an annual member.

How to Get $12 Off a PS5 With Walmart+
So here’s the deal, you’ve got to pay to access Walmart’s PS5 drop on June 2. In other words, the free trial membership doesn’t qualify you to get access to PlayStation 5 availability. But, here’s another deal, you can actually save $25 on your next purchase of $50 or more when you sign up for the monthly membership. It costs $12.95/ month – but with that extra saving you’re effectively cancelling this out and actually saving around $12 on the PS5.
It’s not been confirmed whether this will work on the PS5, but if you are really desperate to get the console, I’d absolutely say it’s worth the gamble. Worst case scenario is that it doesn’t work on the PS5, but you can still buy a brand new game at $12 off. Not a bad deal overall.
