It's no secret that Black Friday brings big savings on all kinds of goods, from top tech to appliances. But not everything you buy for Black Friday has to be a big ticket item. In fact, you can spend just $5 and get one of the best gifts of the season: these Pokémon slippers from Walmart. While stock is fluctuating on Pikachu and Charmander, we're still seeing plenty of slippers with my favorite turtle-esque Pokémon, Squirtle, as well as the hilariously adorable Bulbasaur. Just don't wait because this deal could be gone before you can say Go.
Featuring a plush lining and cushioned insole, these cozy terry slippers are only available in men's sizes 7 to 13. Unfortunately, for those who wear smaller sizes (a men's 7 is equivalent to women's size 9) they will probably be too big. Still, at $5 they can make a great stocking stuffer for someone in your life.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

Why this deal matters
If you're looking for a fun but practical gift you really can't go wrong with slippers. Combine that with Pokémon and $5, and I can't really figure out why not to buy these (other than sizing). It's a low-risk, low-spend gift that is a lot of fun.
