UPDATE: Nov. 30, 2024, 1:45 p.m. EST This story has been updated with a deal on an annual Walmart+ membership, which comes with a free Paramount+ Essential subscription (a $59.99/year value), among other perks — including early access to the big-box store’s Cyber Monday offers. We’ve also added a new FAQ about when most Black Friday streaming deals will end.
‘Tis the season for streaming. Black Friday is one of the best times (if not the best time) to sign up for streaming services, as you can typically score some serious savings on monthly membership fees. In years past, we’ve seen Hulu offer 99-cent subscriptions and Max offer six months of streaming for $2.99 per month. And we’re pleased to report that those deals have been resurrected in 2024.
With streaming prices skyrocketing over the past year, we’re actually a bit surprised at how impressive some of these Black Friday deals are — we suggest you lock in before prices go up again. If you’re looking for a way to cut back on streaming costs, now’s a great time to take advantage of a majorly discounted subscription. Just note that these deals are limited to new and returning subscribers only — as in, you once subscribed to Max, but cancelled your subscription months back.
And though Black Friday may be over, these subscriptions will persist just a little bit longer. (Most are live through Dec. 2.) Make sure to snatch them up before the deals vanish. If any other streaming deals surface, we’ll be sure to update this with the latest and greatest ones. For now, here are all the best Black Friday streaming deals that are still live.
Note: All newly added or updated deals have been marked with a ✨, while struck-through deals were expired at the time of writing.
Best Black Friday streaming deal
Why we like it
Not only did Mashable’s streaming reporter Christina Buff call this the best streaming deal of Black Friday. She also said it’s her pick for the best streaming deal of the year. When you sign up for Hulu and Disney+ together (the ad-supported versions), you can save $96 on the regular price. Normally $10.99 per month, you can pay just $2.99 for both of these streaming heavy-hitters.
Best Black Friday Hulu deal
Why we like it
Hulu remains the top dog when it comes to Black Friday deals. For the second year in a row, the streamer is offering an entire year of Hulu with ads for just $0.99 per month. That’s less than $12 total for an entire year of streaming. It’s a bit surprising, honestly, as Hulu upped the cost of its basic plan just last month from $7.99 per month to $9.99 per month. In other words, the savings this year is even more impressive — 90% or $108 in total over 12 months. That’s just … insane. You can sign up at this sale price through Dec 2.
Hulu is the streaming home for three of our favorite shows of 2023, The Bear, Abbott Elementary, and Reservation Dogs, as well as our top favorite show of 2024, Shōgun. It’s also where you’ll find episodes of ABC shows the day after they air, like Dancing with the Stars, and Neon movies fresh out of the theaters, like Cuckoo (coming Dec. 17).
Best Peacock streaming deal
Peacock Premium
$1.99/month for six months or $19.99/year (save up to $60) with codes REALDEALMONTHLY or REALDEAL
Why we like it
Peacock drops one of the best streaming deals year after year during Black Friday season. And because of the streamer’s price hike back in July, this year’s deal is even better. Through Dec. 2, new and returning Peacock subscribers can score a year of ad-supported Peacock Premium for either $1.99/month for six months (reg. $7.99/month) or $19.99 for an entire year (reg. $79.99/year) using the codes REALDEALMONTHLY or REALDEAL, respectively. That’s 75% in savings.
Peacock is home to classic TV hits like The Office and New Girl, Peacock Originals like Poker Face and Love Island USA, new theatrical releases from Universal like Abigail, The Fall Guy, and Twisters, as well as live sports, reality TV on Bravo, and more. At just $20 for the whole year, it’s going to be a hard deal to beat this Black Friday.
Mashable Deals
Best Max streaming deal
Why we like it
Max has resurrected its exact Black Friday deal from last year, but that doesn’t make us love it any less. If you’re a new or returning HBO Max subscriber, you can score six months of the streamer’s plan with ads for just $2.99 per month (instead of $9.99 per month) until Dec. 2. That saves you $42 total.
The Warner Bros. Discovery-owned streaming service is home to not only Warner Bros. films, but also new A24 theatrical releases. That means you have an insane array of hit films at your fingertips, including Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Civil War, Love Lies Bleeding, Dune, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, Barbie, Elvis, The Iron Claw, and more. Max also offers its own original series that are definitely worth watching, like True Detective, The Last of Us, and Station Eleven, as well as the B/R Sports add-on for a limited time.
Best Prime Video add-on deal
Why we like it
Typically $12.99 per month, you can score Paramount+ with Showtime for just $2.99 per month for your first two months as a Prime Video add-on. That saves you $20 total and gets you unlimited, ad-free access to the entire Paramount+ catalog, plus Showtime originals and movies (like Yellowjackets and The Curse), live TV with CBS, and college football.
Paramount+ is home to NFL on CBS, UEFA Champions League matches, CBS originals like Ghosts, Survivor, and Big Brother, old Nickelodeon and MTV shows, and Paramount’s latest theatrical releases like A Quiet Place: Day One and Smile 2 (coming soon). For just under $6, you can binge a whole lot of stuff over the next two months. After the promo period, the cost will jump back up to $12.99 per month, so be sure to cancel before that if you want to avoid charges. If you’re not a Prime member, Paramount+ is also offering the same deal on their standalone streaming service.
