Save up to $50 at Walmart

TL;DR: Walmart has Garmin’s Drive 52, DriveSmart 55, and DriveSmart 65 GPS devices on sale for $30 to $50 off their suggested retail prices. 

Fourth of July weekend traffic can be the stuff of nightmares, which makes it all the more important to have a premium GPS as your copilot — one that won’t just guide you through congestion, but help you steer clear of it entirely so you can make it to the barbecue before all the Jell-O jigglers are gone. 

The highly-rated models in Garmin’s 2019 Drive Series are a smart pick for two reasons: One, they feature the company’s Traffic service that suggests alternative routes to avoid gridlocks and slowdowns. And two, they’re on sale at Walmart right now for up to $50 off:

The Drive 52 is the smallest device in the Drive Series at 5 inches wide, but its maps and menus are still clear and bright. It provides turn-by-turn navigation with driver alerts and highlighted points of interest, which are identified using Garmin’s HISTORY® database of historic sites and U.S. national parks.

It retails for $169.99, but you can pick one up from Walmart for just $139.99 — a savings of $30.

A slight upgrade from the Drive 52, Garmin’s voice-activated DriveSmart 55 GPS comes with a 5.5-inch edge-to-edge display, built-in Wi-Fi connectivity that keeps its maps and software updated, and smartphone pairing via Bluetooth for hands-free phone calls.

Snag one from Walmart today for just $179.99 — $50 off its suggested retail price of $229.99.

The DriveSmart 65 features all the same functionality as its predecessors, only with a bigger 6.95-inch display that makes Garmin’s directions all the more easy to read.

It retails for $269.99, but you can get it on sale at Walmart for just $219.99 — a $50 savings.
