This Black Friday and Cyber Monday, products aren’t the only things you can save on. Hulu, one of the best streaming services for TV shows, movies, and live TV, is once again offering a can’t-miss deal for new subscribers.
Hulu’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday deal:
Available now through December 2: New subscribers can sign up for the ad-supported Basic Hulu subscription for just $1.99 a month.
That brings the total cost to a little under $24 for the entire year (a $48 savings). After the promotion ends, your subscription will cost $5.99 a month.
There are a couple of restrictions:
- Only new Hulu subscribers - meaning brand-new subscribers and past subscribers whose subscriptions ended over 12 months ago - are eligible for this deal.
- If you signed up for Hulu's $0.99 promotion that ran during this time in 2018, you are not eligible for the new deal.
The 2019 Cyber Week deal is not as good as the 2018 deal, which gave new subscribers a yearlong subscription to the ad-supported version of Hulu for $0.99 a month, but it's still a great deal overall. Editor's note: I signed up for the 2018 deal and have since rolled over to a regular subscription. I am keeping my subscription because it's a great value. Especially around Thanksgiving I'm grateful for Hulu's library of James Bond movies.
You may also want to check out the Disney Plus-Hulu-ESPN bundle, which allows you to get all three services for $12.99 a month. Read more about the bundle here.
