Yes, Walmart sells Amazon Fire Sticks in stores and online

Walmart carries Fire Sticks both in physical locations and through Walmart.com. You can find them in the electronics section of most Walmart stores, typically near televisions, streaming devices, and cables. The selection usually includes the standard Fire Stick and Fire Stick 4K models, though inventory varies by location and season.

Prices at Walmart are generally competitive with Amazon.com and other major retailers. Walmart often runs sales on Fire Sticks during holiday shopping periods and back-to-school season, so checking their website or visiting in person during these times may save you money. You can also check stock availability online before driving to your local store.

Key Takeaways

  • Walmart stocks Fire Sticks in most stores' electronics sections and sells them online at Walmart.com with the same models Amazon offers directly.
  • Walmart's prices match or beat Amazon.com in most cases, and the retailer frequently discounts Fire Sticks during major shopping seasons.
  • You can pick up a Fire Stick the same day at many Walmart locations using online ordering, or have it shipped to your home.
  • Other major retailers like Best Buy, Target, and Amazon itself also sell Fire Sticks if your local Walmart is out of stock.

How to find Fire Sticks at your local Walmart

Walk into the electronics department and look for the streaming devices section. Fire Sticks are usually displayed near Roku devices, Apple TV boxes, and other streaming hardware. If you don't see them when ready, ask an associate—they can check the back room or tell you if the model you want is in stock.

Before you go, check Walmart.com and search for "Fire Stick" to see what your local store has available right now. The website shows stock levels by location, so you'll know whether to make the trip. You can also use the Walmart app on your phone to scan items in the store and confirm prices.

Walmart.com ordering and pickup options

Walmart.com offers two main ways to get a Fire Stick without visiting a store. You can order online and pick it up at your local Walmart within a few hours (often called "same-day pickup"), or have it shipped to your home. Same-day pickup is free and usually faster than waiting for delivery.

To use pickup, add the Fire Stick to your cart on Walmart.com, select your nearest store, and choose the pickup option at checkout. You'll receive a notification when your order is ready—usually within two to four hours. Drive to the store, park in a designated pickup spot, and an associate will bring your order to your car.

Price comparison: Walmart versus other retailers

Walmart's Fire Stick prices are typically within a dollar or two of Amazon.com, Best Buy, and Target. During sales events, any of these retailers may undercut the others, so it's worth checking multiple sites if you're not in a hurry. Amazon sometimes offers exclusive bundles (Fire Stick plus Echo Dot, for example) that other retailers don't carry.

Best Buy occasionally offers additional perks like extended warranties or tech setup services, which may justify a slightly higher price if you want professional installation help. Target's prices usually match Walmart's, and both offer free shipping on orders above a certain amount. If you have a Walmart+ membership, you may may have access to for free shipping on smaller orders.

What Fire Stick models Walmart typically stocks

Most Walmart locations carry the Fire Stick (standard), which is the entry-level model and the most affordable option. You'll also usually find the Fire Stick 4K, which supports higher resolution video and faster performance. Some stores stock the Fire Stick with Alexa Voice Remote, which includes voice control built into the remote itself rather than requiring a separate Echo device.

The Fire TV Cube, a more powerful device with built-in speakers and Alexa, is less common in Walmart stores but available online. Availability of specific models depends on your location and current demand. If Walmart doesn't have the exact model you want, you can order it online and have it shipped, or check Best Buy or Target nearby.

Setting up your Fire Stick after purchase

Once you bring your Fire Stick home, setup takes about 10 minutes. Plug it into an HDMI port on your TV and a power outlet. Turn on your TV, and the Fire Stick will guide you through connecting to your Wi-Fi network and signing into your Amazon account. You'll need your Amazon password, so have it ready.

After signing in, the Fire Stick will read any available software updates automatically. You can then add streaming apps like Netflix, Disney+, or Hulu from the built-in app store. If you bought a Fire Stick with Alexa Voice Remote, you can start using voice commands right away to search for shows, control playback, and adjust volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Walmart price match Fire Sticks from Amazon or other stores?

Walmart has a price-matching policy, but it typically applies to local competitors and advertised prices, not online-only deals. Check Walmart's current price-match policy on their website or ask an associate in the electronics department. In most cases, Walmart's regular prices are already competitive with Amazon and other major retailers.

Can I return a Fire Stick to Walmart if I change my mind?

Yes. Walmart accepts returns of Fire Sticks within 15 days of purchase with a receipt, as long as the device is in original condition and all accessories are included. If you ordered online, you can return it to any Walmart store or arrange a return shipment through Walmart.com. Some items purchased online may have different return windows, so check your order confirmation.

What if my local Walmart is out of stock?

Order online and have it shipped to your home, or use the Walmart app to check stock at nearby stores. Best Buy, Target, and Amazon.com all carry Fire Sticks and can often ship or deliver faster than Walmart depending on your location. If you need it urgently, calling ahead to confirm stock before driving is worth the time.

Do I need a Walmart account to buy a Fire Stick in the store?

No. You can walk in and pay with cash, debit, or credit card without creating an account. However, having a Walmart account (free to create) lets you track online orders, use same-day pickup, and access digital receipts. You don't need one to make a purchase.
