Waiting for the sale season to shop for expensive but essential appliances like vacuum cleaners is smart, as you'll see the biggest savings all year. But if you missed the breadth of deals on Amazon this week, don't worry.
While the Prime sale may have ended yesterday, the Dyson V7 has been slashed to just $229.99 at Walmart right now. This is part of the huge Walmart Deals sale that's only live for one more day – so get it before it's gone.
The best Dyson vacuums with fancy features can cost upwards of $600, so plumping for a tried and true classic is a great way to save $100s on the brand's market-leading suction power without the more expensive bells and whistles.
Why the classic Dyson V7 is still a worthy buy
I'll cut to the chase: Dyson produces the best cordless vacuums on the market. We've tested almost every single vacuum in their lineup they top our guides of the best vacuum cleaners time and again.
This is thanks to unparalleled suction that can deep clean your carpets and floors, along with innovative features including anti-tangle brushes that other vacuum brands continue to try to emulate.
When buying a cordless vacuum, what you gain in convenience, you lose in power – but Dyson's patented cyclone engineering gets as close to the best corded vacuums as possible.
And if you're a pet owner, the Dyson V7 features the Motorbar floorhead – which is the best vacuum attachment for pet hair that we've tested. It never wraps with hair, and its bristles are strong enough to dig dirt from deep within your carpet fibers.
The V7 is by no means as powerful as Dyson's newer models, but if you're on a budget and are looking for a lightweight but effective cordless stick, this is the money-saving solution you've been waiting for.
Buy the Dyson V7 for $229.99 at Walmart, discounted from $399.99.

For just $90 more than the Dyson V7, you can take home the Shark's best cordless vacuum. It impressed us when vacuuming dust and pet hair from carpets and hard floors, and has stronger specs in almost all aspects compared to the V7.

I used the Dyson V12 Detect Slim in my own home for over a year and it was more effective than almost every other vacuum I've used. It has Dyson's most advanced tech, including a green laser that reveals dust the naked eye can't see. It's expensive, but this $200 discount should make it more attractive.
