Heads up: you’ve only got until the middle of the day on November 8 to getWalmart Plus for just $49. The retailer has slashed the price of a year-long membership to its subscription service by 50% and the timing couldn’t be better if you’re looking to spend during this year’sBlack Friday dealsbonanza.

That’s because this year’sWalmart Black Friday dealsstart on November 8 at 3pm ET and Walmart Plus members getexclusive early accessto the sales three hours before everyone else at 12pm ET.
