UPDATE: May. 19, 2023, 11:30 a.m. EDT This post has been updated with the latest streaming deals and pricing on streaming service bundles.
Streaming services have become a modern cultural staple in that we build them into our monthly bills alongside rent and electricity. However, there are always loopholes to get out of paying full price for the long list of apps you need access to. For the ones for which you have yet to secure a shared password, these are the streaming deals to take advantage of.
Our top pick
Why we like it
Netflix's threat to crack down on password sharing is set to start ruining lives this spring. If you're considering jumping ship, Hulu's National Streaming Day deal, which runs through May 27, may be able to win your loyalty. New subscribers and eligible returning subscribers (those who have subscribed to Hulu before, but not in the past month) can lock in three months of Hulu with ads for just $2/month(opens in a new tab).
Compared to the $7.99/month that Hulu with ads would regularly run you, it's a savings of $6 (or 74%) for each of the three months. That $18 total is almost enough to cover Peacock Premium for a year if you sign up with the deal we've listed a little further down.
