Walmart can be a one-stop shop for your game day prep if you plan it out. TV with a surround sound speaker setup? They have that. Gargantuan couches that you just might fall into when you sit down? Check. And of course the main reason you’re here, plenty of good game day deals on enough food to feed even the hungriest football fans.
- Marketside Buffalo Style Chicken Dip ($4.97)
-
According to Sporked taste-tester Jordan Myrick, this is “the most buffalo chicken-y buffalo chicken dip on the market.” It’s tangy, it’s spicy, it’s creamy—and it costs less than five bucks for an 11oz tub. If Jordan’s assessment is correct (it is), you should probably buy two.

- Tostitos Scoops! Tortilla Chips Party Size ($5.94)
-
There are certainly cheaper tortilla chips at Walmart, but hear me out: Scoops save you money in lost dip. They’re cleverly shaped so that dip makes it from the bowl to your mouth with as little product loss as possible; regular tortilla chips leave HUNDREDS of dollars in dip splatters on the table. Okay, not hundreds, but you get my drift.

- Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream ($3.97)
-
Doubters will say I’m only including Ruffles Cheddar & Sour Cream to cross-promote Sporked’s recent Ruffles taste test. But these earned their spot in this haul by their own merit—and they happen to on Rollback right now, so they’re almost $2 cheaper than they are at most grocery stores. Plus, these are damn good chips that need to be shared with the masses. Bring these out and watch others revel in their beauty!

- Totino’s Pepperoni Party Pizza 4-Pack ($6.87)
-
You may not like it but this is what peak game day performance looks like. I won’t sugar coat it. Totino’s Party Pizzas may not be everyone’s cup of tea. They do feel a little cheap (newsflash: They are), but they make up for it with their design. Small, square pizzas that can be cut up perfectly for everyone to get a little bite on their plate? That’s slick! And they’re only around $1 a serving (Nielsen did the math, not us).

- Hillshire Farm Beef Lit’l Smokies Smoked Sausage Links ($3.50)
-
The best thing about Lit’l Smokies sausages is that there’s no wrong way to prepare them. Drown them in a crockpot of BBQ sauce, wrap them up to make pigs in a blanket, or just hand them out by the fistful—at $3.50 for a 12oz package, why not?
