To say the temperatures are *soaring* this summer is an understatement! We're positively melting in this heat, but thankfully, Walmart Canada is stocked with great products to help you get through it (with minimal sweat stains). Pick your faves and thank us later!

1. An ultra-quiet portable generator that'll keep the cool air flowing even during a power outage. Reviewers also love bringing it on camping trips to power fans, fridges, and trailer ACs.

Walmart Canada

You can also use it to power laptops, power chargers, and other gadgets and gizmos you have lying around.

Get it from Walmart Canada for $479.99 CAD (originally $1,299 CAD).

2. A cooling pillow if you're tired of waking up in a pool of your own sweat. The hypoallergenic fill won't aggravate your sinuses, so you can focus on getting some much-needed rest (no matter how hot it gets).

I wasn't sold on the idea of a smart thermostat — until we got one. I love being able to remotely cool down our house in the summer, and the different preset options are a godsend when you prefer to simply set it and forget it. You can even tell it to automatically adjust the second someone leaves — or arrives — home using the companion app.

Get it from Walmart Canada for $229.99 CAD.

4. An anti-chafe balm you'll love if the heat has your shoes and clothing waging war against your skin. It goes on smooth and dry and won't stain your clothes, so you can apply it wherever (and whenever) the need strikes.
