12 Best New Great Value Groceries Of 2026 (So Far)

Walmart may own a lot of brands, but Great Value is one of the more prominent names in the chain's grocery aisles. Unlike the more upscale Bettergoods label, Great Value covers a lot of budget-priced basics, but that doesn't mean the items are low quality; quite a few are actually made by famous manufacturers. In 2026, there were major changes to the Great Value lineup, with one of the more obvious being redesigned packaging that made everything look more up to date. Besides giving older products a makeover, Walmart has also introduced a number of new grocery products under this label in categories ranging from beverages to snacks to pantry supplies.

Although the year's not over yet, certain recently released items have emerged as clear winners; each item on this list earned over four stars from customers. What's more, although some of these products may be seasonal, none bear that dreaded "limited time" label that tells you they're sure to be sold out before you can schedule a shopping trip. Still, even if you needn't sprint to the store to snap these products up before they disappear, you should certainly check them out next time you're wandering the Walmart aisles.

Once upon a time, the phrase "herbal tea" conjured up visions of something that was supposed to be good for you but tasted like grass clippings and was a chore to drink. However, the 4.7-star Great Value Herbal Tea Collections Variety Pack is a far cry from that stereotype. Well, apart from the health benefits, that is. 

All four caffeine-free teas are not only flavorful, but chamomile can be calming and lemon-ginger might help settle an upset stomach. Hibiscus tea is tangy, floral, and rich in antioxidants, while peppermint tea can simultaneously perk you up, freshen your breath, and make you think of Christmas. This collection contain five teabags of each variety, giving you ample opportunity to discover a new favorite.

Most gummy candies go squish, but the better ones have a little crunch, thanks to a coating of sugar crystals. But Great Value Cosmic Gummy Rings Candy goes above and beyond by maximizing the crunch factor with a layer of nonpareils. Each bag of these five-star candies includes a mixture of cherry, grape, and tropical punch flavors. The colors come from all-natural ingredients like paprika, radishes, spirulina, and sweet potato juice, showing that the candies have clearly benefited from Walmart's recent push to get rid of synthetic food dyes in its private label products.

Buying bags of ground coffee is one of the more economical ways to enjoy your morning java, especially if it comes from Walmart's Great Value brand.

Great Value's latest DIY boba tea kit is a 4.2-star-rated brown sugar flavor. Each kit comes complete with tea packets, boba pearls, and even boba straws, and is enough to make three teas for less than you might pay for a single drink at a boba shop. "My kids love boba, but at $7 a pop I'm trying to cut back. This gives us the same treat feeling for a much more economical price," said one customer, while another advised, "If you're a fan of classic brown sugar milk tea, you need to grab a box of these.

Everything is neatly separated into a handy plastic mini tackle box, too.

A single serving of regular oatmeal contains about five grams of protein, but Great Value Protein Instant Oatmeal more than doubles that amount. Each packet provides 12 grams of this nutrient along with gut-friendly fiber. The cereal is available in the classic maple brown sugar flavor and also comes in the newly-trendy banana nut flavor. (Banana flavoring is providing pumpkin spice with some major competition this year.) Both varieties of this quick-to-prepare breakfast have been popular with Walmart shoppers, earning 4.5-star ratings.
