Walmart is taking Black Friday shopping to new heights with its “Deals of Desire” series—a 10-part “adver-tainment” campaign that combines irresistible discounts with dramatic, genre-spanning entertainment. Each episode merges thrilling storylines with Walmart’s Black Friday deals, creating an experience that goes beyond shopping. From soap opera twists and supernatural surprises to sports and historical drama, “Deals of Desire” keeps audiences on the edge of their seats while showcasing Walmart’s top holiday deals.
The series debuted with “Sister, Swindler,” featuring Lisa Rinna as her character’s long-lost sister reappears, attempts to drain her bank account, and reveals herself as a vampire! Each episode promises entertaining product placements that keep viewers engaged with Walmart’s Black Friday offerings without pulling focus from the storyline.
As Walmart’s Chief Marketing Officer, William White, explains, “Everyone loves a bit of drama, and with ‘Deals of Desire,’ we’ve captured the thrill and main character energy customers feel on their hunt for Black Friday savings.”
