Why We Love This Deal
Winter is nearly over, and it’s time to think about dealing with the sun again. From facial sunscreens to UV ray-blocking sun shirts, there are tons of strategies for getting yourself protected. If you're looking to host cookouts this spring or really do anything outside in the sun, you should know that Walmart is selling an incredible, easy-to-use portable pop-up tent, which is a great way to provide extra shade to guests, at 55% off its normal cost.
The Best Choice Products 8-by-8 Easy Setup Pop Up Canopy is now just $90, a price available in 27 colors plus a special U.S. flag version. That means that you can get the exact color that fits your group’s vibe as you all duck out of the sun together. Note that with the current deal, this canopy is more affordable than most other 8-by-8 canopies at Walmart, and the cheaper ones tend not to be this robust in one way or another.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Height: 8.5 feet in the center
- Color Options: 27 plus a U.S. flag theme
- Setup: Push-button
- Protection: Flame-resistant, UPF 50+, UV resistant
- Set Includes: Canopy, wheeled case, ropes, stakes, and weight bags
- Best Use Case: This is an excellent, portable pop-up canopy for small parties to resist the sun.
The biggest barrier for most people when it comes to getting a canopy like this is trying to understand if it’s actually suitable for their needs. This canopy is on the smaller side, 8-by-8, and that’s perfect for easy maneuverability. Your small party, family gathering, or friend group excursion (or even solitary day out) sorts of events are where it’s going to shine and even outperform larger competitors.
Setup is simple. Remove the frame from the rolling case, push a button in the center to pop it up, then tie it down. Depending on how windy things are, you can deploy the supplied weight bags, too, to add over 100 pounds of additional weight to the structure, so it won't blow away.
This is the perfect accompaniment for your Spring Break escapades, lowering your chances of getting a sunburn while keeping the cooler out of the sun. For larger gatherings or events, consider 10-by-10 canopies instead, which tend to be the standard size for farmers' market stands.
