If you're an avid Walmart shopper, you'll probably want to consider signing up for Walmart+. We know that having to sign up for yet another membership service sounds like a pain, but it may be worth it for you (don't worry, we'll tell you why). That's especially true during shopping events like seasonal sales, Prime Day, and Black Friday — Walmart+ members get early access to deals during these sales.
What is Walmart+?Walmart+ is the big-box retailer's premier membership program that gets you exclusive benefits, both online and in-store. These include perks like free and fast shipping, early sale access, mobile scan & go at Walmart stores, and lots more. Many compare it to Amazon Prime, though it's still a bit different.
SEE ALSO: Walmart vs. Amazon: Who actually has the best deals? What are the perks?The whole reason for signing up for Walmart+ is those sweet perks. Here's what you'll get when you become a member:
Unlimited free delivery: All $35+ orders from Walmart stores will be delivered free of charge.
Fast shipping: Next-day and two-day shipping is free for Walmart+ members with no minimum required.
Easy returns: If you need to return something, Walmart will pick it up for you. You won't need to print any labels or repackage any products.
Savings on fuel: Walmart+ members save 10 cents per gallon at participating fueling stations like Exxon, Mobil, Walmart, Sam's Club, and more.
Auto care: Visit any Walmart Auto Care center for free flat tire repair and road hazard warranty.
Mobile scan & go: Shopping at a physical Walmart location? Use your smartphone to scan and pay for your items to make the checkout process faster.
Paramount+ Essential (ad-supported) Plan subscription: Gain access to Paramount+ for no additional fee and enjoy the catalog of movies and TV shows.
Early access: Members will get first dibs on special product releases and big sale events, including Black Friday.
Walmart+ travel: Enjoy up to 5% in Walmart Cash when booking hotels, car rentals, tours, and more with Expedia, and up to 2% on flights.
Burger King savings: Treat yourself to 25% off Burger King every day and a free Whopper with any purchase every three months.
Walmart frequently treats its members to exclusive limited-time perks, adding even more value to your Walmart+ membership. Previous examples include free Apple Music and YouTube Premium.
How much does Walmart+ cost?A Walmart+ membership costs $98 annually or $12.95 monthly. New members can also redeem a 30-day free trial to test the waters before fully committing, but it has limited benefits, and only some of these offers will be available.
Walmart also offers a Walmart+ Assist membership, a more affordable option available to qualifying government aid recipients of SNAP, WIC, Medicaid, and more. It's $6.47 per month or $49 per year.
How do you sign up?Signing up with Walmart+ couldn't be any easier. Here's how to get started:
Go to the Walmart+ page. Here, you'll find information on what the service is, what perks you'll get, and pricing.
Click on "Start your free 30-day trial." (Yes, you get your first month totally free! A recurring billing period will start after the trial ends.)
Fill out your personal and payment information for billing and shipping purposes.
That's literally it. You're now a Walmart+ member, and you can start enjoying your perks immediately!
Though similar, Walmart+ and Amazon Prime still have some pretty big differences between them, and we could make a case for having both. Both services include free and fast shipping benefits, grocery delivery, and access to select streaming services, to name a few shared perks. But, if you had to pick one, we'd say the answer lies in just one question: Do you plan on shopping in-store? If yes, go for Walmart+, but if you think you'll only be shopping online, Amazon Prime will be your best bet. (One more note to consider: Amazon Prime costs about $40 more annually than Walmart+.)
Both memberships also have special shopping events, like Amazon's flagship Prime Day and Walmart's Walmart+ Week. During Prime Day, the focus is on deals across products, but Walmart+ Week centers extra savings on offers and services exclusive to its members.

Pedro Pascal is not happy that his mildly unhinged morning coffee order is out in the world.
"I cannot begin to tell you how violating this was," says the Last of Us star in the Jimmy Kimmel Live! clip above, commenting on a photo that was taken of him where people zoomed in on the coffee order receipt in his hand — revealing a solid six shots of espresso.
"There's so much context to why it has become six shots of espresso. It was always a quad, but then I feel like the cups got bigger, and – I don't know – the shots got less strong and at some point it became six, and it was an incredibly private morning ritual that I never wanted anyone to know about. I don't have more coffee for the rest of the day, I swear," Pascal says. "It's on ice, you sip it, you get really high, and you answer emails and stuff."
Now let's put the matter to rest and allow the man to enjoy his six shots in peace.

It sounds like the kind of thing that would only happen in a political comedy show, but the Trump administration really did leak military plans to The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg by mistakenly adding him to a group chat.
"Oopsie poopsie!" says Jon Stewart in the Daily Show clip above. "Back in my day, if you were a journalist that wanted leaked war documents you'd work the sources, meet them in a dark garage, earn the trust, pound the pavement...now, you just wait for the national security advisor to be distracted by White Lotus while he's setting up his 'bomb Yemen' group chat."
Stewart goes on to say that his favourite part of the leaked chat was a comment from defence secretary Pete Hegseth, who reportedly wrote, "We are currently clear on OPSEC."
"For those of you who don't know, OPSEC means operational security," says Stewart. "He said that in a group chat. A group chat with a journalist."

SAVE $29: As of March 25, Apple AirPods 4 with ANC are on sale for $149.99 in the Amazon Big Spring Sale. That’s a 16% discount from the usual $179.
Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirPods 4 $149.99 at AmazonI’ve tested a lot of wireless earbuds over the years, and I rarely expect much when a new version shows up. But I’ll admit, the AirPods 4 with noise cancellation caught me off guard in a good way. They just dropped to $149.99 for Amazon’s Spring Sale, which is $29 off the $179 list price. That makes this the first real deal on Apple’s latest noise-canceling earbuds, and I’m intrigued.
Apple didn’t just slap “new” on the box and call it a day. The AirPods 4 with ANC have been genuinely redesigned with a more ergonomic shape, a shorter stem, and better controls. They feel more secure and actually stay in place when I move around. Shocking, I know.
SEE ALSO: The Apple AirPods Pro 2 are listed for under $170 in the Amazon Spring SaleThe real story, though, is the sound. These use Apple’s H2 chip, which unlocks Adaptive Audio—a feature that smartly blends noise cancellation and transparency mode based on what’s happening around you. It’s one of those “I didn’t know I needed this” things. You can block out the chaos on your commute, then seamlessly hear someone talking to you without yanking an earbud out. Conversation Awareness even lowers the volume automatically when it senses you’re mid-chat. It’s giving thoughtful little assistant energy.
The audio quality is also better than I expected for the non-Pro line. Calls are sharper thanks to voice isolation, and everything from podcasts to playlists sounds crisp and full. You also get Personalized Spatial Audio with head tracking, which places sound around you like you’re sitting center row in a private screening of your own music video. No complaints here.

Now I’m thinking about grabbing a backup pair for my backup pair.
These aren’t a minor refresh. Apple actually did something here. The AirPods 4 got a full design overhaul with a more contoured shape and a shorter stem, so they sit more comfortably and stay put. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve had old AirPods slowly wriggle their way out of my ears mid-walk. These fix that. They’re also lighter and don’t make my ears feel like they’re hosting a tiny hardware store.

The AirPods 4 have Apple’s H2 chip, which is the same one in the Pro model, and that brings serious upgrades to clarity and performance. Calls are clearer thanks to voice isolation, and music sounds richer without having to mess with EQ settings. And even without active noise cancellation, the sound isolation is decent enough to drown out most background nonsense.
I’m into Personalized Spatial Audio too. It makes everything sound more immersive like you’re in the center of your little surround-sound dome. Apple also added those weird but fun Siri head gestures, so now you can nod to accept a call and shake your head to reject it like a tech-savvy bouncer. Is it necessary? No. Do I still want to use it at every opportunity? Absolutely.

Battery life is solid: five hours on a charge or up to 30 hours with the included case. Speaking of, the new USB-C case is about 10% smaller than the last one and IP54 rated, so it’ll handle sweat and the occasional panic jog through the rain.
At $99.99, these are easily one of the better bang-for-your-buck Apple buys in Amazon’s Spring Sale. They’re perfect if you’re tired of your old AirPods falling out, sounding weak, or just... not connecting. I want these, and if I’m being honest, I’m probably going to convince myself I need two.

Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirPods Pro 2 $169.99 at AmazonI think we all deserve better earbuds. Mine currently sound like they’re being strangled in a sock drawer. That’s why I’m eyeing this Amazon Spring Sale deal: Apple AirPods Pro 2 (with USB-C) are down to $169.99, saving you $79 off the regular $249 price. That’s the lowest I’ve seen in months, and for something this good, it feels like a steal.
These are not your average AirPods. Apple threw its best H2 chip inside, giving them punchier bass, clearer calls, and that fancy Personalized Spatial Audio thing that makes it feel like the music is swirling around your head. And let’s not forget about Adaptive Audio, which is like having a superpower that makes loud crowds magically disappear. Noise cancellation is solid, transparency mode is eerie in a good way, and Conversation Awareness is there to save you from screaming “WHAT?” every time someone tries to talk to you.

They double as a hearing aid with iOS 17, and they’re sweatproof, dustproof, and Lifeproof enough to handle my chaotic commute. Apple includes four silicone tip sizes, which is great for anyone (me) whose ears reject standard buds like a bad Tinder date.

Charging with USB-C is a personal win for me. I’ve already sent all my Lightning cables to that great junk drawer in the sky. The sound is crisp, the bass hits, and the fit stays put even when I’m pretending to run. As for the feature set, it's giving overachiever, but in a charming, straight-A student kind of way.
I want these. You probably do too. If your current earbuds are clinging to life or just making every playlist sound like it’s underwater, this deal is your graceful exit strategy.
