Walmart's toy clearance is a semi-annual event that typically happens twice each year, typically in June and December. This past April, we even saw a mid-spring toy clearance event, which was new for 2024! For the summer clearance event going on now, we've found in-store deals: up to 67% off LOL Surprise dolls, 67% off Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle play sets, and 61% off Disney Junior toys.
While the in-store toy clearance deals usually start around 50% off, the discounts can go up to 80% or more.
But here's a heads up: some of the best Walmart toy deals will be in stores only. We sometimes see Walmart clearance toy deals online too, but discounts, availability, and timing won't always line up with in-store clearance. And unlike Walmart Rollbacks, these Walmart clearance deals won't go back up in price — but they will sell out.
In this post, I've laid out all the best clearance toy deals we're finding now at Walmart, plus tips for scoring even bigger savings during the sale, like how to check clearance prices in store.

KCL spotted in-store toy clearance deals starting June 10, 2024.
Last year, we saw the summer toy clearance sale pop up in stores as early as June 7, 2023, so we fully expected to see new clearance deals to drop around early June this year.
It wasn't until June 10 that we finally started seeing a few clearance deals in the toy aisle at our Walmart store (in Central Florida).
You'll likely see toy markdowns in the regular toy aisles at first; then by the end of June, they usually move to the main clearance aisle at Walmart.
Reminder: Walmart clearance prices are sometimes cheaper than marked.
With all the different products and markdowns happening at any given time, it’s common to find items that get missed for a second or third markdown. Be sure to use our Walmart price scanner hack to find hidden Walmart clearance.
How to check clearance prices in store: Just tap that little barcode icon in the search bar of your Walmart app; then scan the item’s barcode with your phone to see the current clearance price. I always turn on location services (or connect to in-store Wi-Fi) for the most accurate prices.
