Getting Started With 'Dungeons & Dragons' Has Never Been Cheaper

If you or someone you know wants to get into D&D, the Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set has everything you'll need. It also happens to be on sale for only $10.98 on Amazon, which is 45% off the list price and good for an all-time low.

You can also get the deal via Walmart with free 2-day shipping on orders of $35 or more or with free pickup in your local store when you order online (if you aren't a Prime member, this is definitely your cheapest option). However, hitting that $35 mark is pretty easy with the sales that are happening on the three core D&D rulebooks - some of which include bonus discounts when you order online for local pickup: Player's Handbook ($22.74 - 54% off), Monster Manual ($30.86 - 38% off plus bonus $1.89 discount for pickup), and Dungeon Master's Guide ($20.94 - 58% off plus bonus $1.28 discount for pickup).

The three core D&D books are also on sale via Amazon with discounts that match Walmart (some include automatic coupons that match Walmart's pickup bonuses): Player's Handbook / Monster Manual / Dungeon Master's Guide.

The Starter Set does a wonderful job of simplifying the rules and making the game approachable to new players so they can dive in and start having fun right away. The set comes with everything a new player needs: five ready-to-play characters, six dice, the adventure book Lost Mine of Phandelver, a rulebook, and a character sheet. Even experienced players will have fun with the adventure, and at this price it's hard to pass up.
