Walmart's Holiday Deals Event is officially live, and the retailer is offering steep discounts across its massive selection of products until Oct. 13. Everything from fitness equipment to top-rated camping gear, and even e-bikes are all seeing sizable markdowns, but what might be the most eye-popping deal we’ve spotted is this classic duffel bag that's on sale right now for less than the cost of a slice of pizza.
The SwissTech Excursion 28-Inch Duffel Bag is available in dark gray for just $5, or 83% off what it typically costs. The price is low enough to activate most shoppers' junk alarms, but the 181 five-star ratings suggest that this duffel bag is more of a crowd-pleaser than you might expect, even when it's not on sale. Reviewers have called this bag a “great traveler” because of its “perfect" size, furthering the case that a great duffel doesn't have to cost a lot. This bag was one of many from SwissTech that were down to $5 for Walmart's October sale, but the rest have sold out—make sure to pick one of these up for yourself before it, too, is gone for good.

This classic duffel is made from a 600-denier heathered poly, a durable choice, and includes four exterior zippered compartments, a water-resistant bottom, and a deep side pocket that’s great for storing things you might need to grab as you make your way through an airport. The extra-wide handle ensures a comfortable grip while the shoulder strap provides even easier carrying while also giving you the option of removing it entirely. It’s firmly in the carry-on size category, which makes this bag a great airport companion.
“This is a great bag!” one typically enthusiastic review began. “I purchased my first duffle months ago and liked it so much I bought two more for family members to use.” They say the numerous compartments on the bag make it feel that there are “seemingly endless” ways to pack. “My favorite feature is the zippered compartment on the bottom” because it’s “perfect for shoes and bulky items such as jackets and sweaters.”
Just $5 for a SwissTech Duffel Bag brings this deal firmly into the impulse buy area, and we’d imagine that it puts this bag in danger of selling out. So if you’re interested in this or any other SwissTech bags on sale, we’d recommend getting one ASAP. You’ll be happy you did the next time you travel.
