Deal: Apple's 9.7-inch iPad (5th Gen) is $80 off at Walmart

If you're in dire need of a tablet, Walmart has a great deal on Apple's 9.7-inch iPad (5th Gen), but you'll probably have to hurry since these deals tend to disappear quite fast. We've reported before about a similar deal that the US retailer offered customers last month, but if you missed it, here is your chance to score a cheaper Apple iPad 9.7-inch (5th Gen) slate.

First off, it's worth mentioning the 32GB Wi-Fi Apple iPad (5th Gen) usually sells for $330, but some retailers have it available for $300. These prices change rapidly as US retailers try to remain competitive in the tablet market, which is great for consumers.

In any case, Walmart is now selling the 32GB Wi-Fi version of the 9.7-inch iPad (5th Gen) for only $249, which means you could save $80 when you buy. Of course, some would say that you only save $50 since many retailers sell the iPad for $300, but even a 15% discount is decent for an Apple product.

Customers who decide to go for Walmart's deal may also benefit from free 2-day shipping. It's also worth mentioning that you can get the 9.7-inch iPad (5th Gen) in either silver or gold colors, as the space gray model isn't on sale.
