Sweet new Walmart deal makes Samsung’s old Galaxy Tab S8 an amazing back-to-school bargain

The retailer is technically listing the 128GB storage variant of the 2022-released Tab S8 at a regular price of $499, which would mean that you’re looking at saving a rather unimpressive 100 bucks here for an undoubtedly limited time. But compared to how much this bad boy used to cost back in the day, its discount is of course a lot heftier.

The timing of the new Walmart offer is pretty ideal, with the back-to-school season upon us, and despite its advanced age, the Tab S8 looks like an excellent choice for the classroom, office, or an occasional business or pleasure-focused travel. 

If you want to further reduce your spending ahead of the start of the new school year, you can save an additional 70 bucks or so and opt for a refurbished unit in “excellent” condition on Amazon. Naturally, that’s not the same thing as a brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged device available at Walmart, but again, this deal could expire before long, so it’s good to have an alternative money-saving route prepared.
