Grilling Shears for Under $1 at Walmart — Grab Them Fast
You read that right: Walmart has 8” Expert Grill Extra Large Grilling Shears on sale for $0.97. Not a typo, not a coupon stack — just a straight-up price drop on a grilling-season essential that’s practically free.
What You’re Getting
These are full-size, 8-inch grilling shears from Expert Grill — a brand Walmart carries across its outdoor cooking lineup. At under a dollar, this is less than a pack of gum. Even if you already own a pair, it’s worth grabbing a backup set to keep at the grill station so you’re not hunting down the kitchen scissors when you need to spatchcock a chicken or snip herb garnishes right onto the plate.
Free store pickup is available where stock permits, so you can check your local Walmart and snag these without a shipping wait. If pickup isn’t available near you, shipping is free with Walmart+ (which has a free 30-day trial) or on qualifying orders.
Who Should Grab These Right Now
Honestly? Almost everyone with a grill. But here’s who benefits most:
- Backyard BBQ hosts gearing up for the summer grilling stretch — shears make quick work of spatchcocking poultry, breaking down ribs, and trimming brisket fat
- Parents with kids who want a dedicated outdoor pair that doesn’t need to come back inside clean
- Tailgaters and campers who need a cheap, disposable-if-lost tool for the camp kitchen
- Anyone who’s been borrowing kitchen shears at the grill and finally wants to stop
If you saw the KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce deal we wrote up recently, pair that $3.15 bottle with these shears and you’ve got two BBQ essentials for under $5 total.
A Note on Expectations
At $0.97, temper your expectations slightly. These aren’t German-forged kitchen shears. They’re a seasonal grilling tool at a grocery-store price point — which means they’re perfectly suited for the job of cutting chicken into pieces, slicing smoked sausage links, or trimming herbs. What they’re not is a lifelong heirloom tool. Think of them as a high-value consumable, not an investment piece.
Also worth noting: stock is limited and this price won’t last. Clearance pricing like this tends to disappear quickly once word spreads, and availability varies by store. Check your local Walmart’s inventory before making a trip.
The Bottom Line
For under a dollar, the downside risk is essentially zero. Dedicated grilling shears routinely run $8–$15 at most stores, so even a budget pair at $0.97 is a steal — especially heading into the heart of grilling season. Check your local Walmart for free pickup, or toss them into a qualifying order for free shipping.
Check availability at your local Walmart before they’re gone.
