Why We Love This Deal
Early snowstorms are on the way, and shoppers are remembering, yet again, that it’s going to take more than a low-cost hoodie and some snow boots to survive it all. In fact, a roadside emergency kit becomes more useful than ever around this time of the year. Make it easy on yourself: Walmart is selling a rather robust one with a specific winter-themed gear subset for under $50.
The Vcanenergy 86-Piece Car Emergency Kit is $48 at Walmart and ships free. It includes everything from a mini first aid kit to jumper cables. You’ll also find key items for winter, like a snow shovel and ice scraper. This kit is 365-day approved, but really shines during the darkest days of winter.

I love how this kit takes care of so many situations, from routine snow clearing to getting your car hauled to the next repair shop. If you’re going to use the kit this winter, though, I’d highly recommend wearing an insulated waterproof jacket over the included poncho. Walmart sells $13 water-resistant fleece-lined gloves that are going to be better for you than the included work gloves as well, at least for comfort’s sake.
