Best streaming service deals ahead of Black Friday
Fans of boxing can scoop up unmatched access to boxing content for a lot less right now. The streaming platform is slashing prices by 50% on subscriptions, which drops the monthly price down to $15 per month (with a minimum three-month subscription) or the annual plan down to $10 per month for 12 months.
Cord-cutters who have been holding out on YouTube TV’s NFL Sunday Ticket can score the add-on for $209. This offering grants access to the remaining Sunday games if you have the YouTube base plan, and you have the option to pay in installments. Bundling with the base plan will save you even more, as the YouTubeTV price of $73 is slashed to just $50. However, if you cancel YouTubeTV you will lose access to NFL Sunday ticket. And if you’re only looking for the NFL Sunday ticket there’s also a deal to get it for just $264.
These deals are available now through Nov. 18. It’s worth noting that we did see a further price cut last Black Friday, but there’s no guarantee that we will this year and you’ll miss out on games between now and then, so those are things to consider before you sign up.

Do Black Friday streaming service deals actually save you money?
Generally, yes. Many streaming services offer really great Black Friday deals. For example, top streamers like Hulu and Peacock have offered great rates during Black Friday sales. In fact, last year Hulu offered a year of service for just $1 per month. However, the caveat is that some Black Friday deals are exclusive to new subscribers, while others may only last for a few months, rather than the entire year. If you know you want to sign up for a streaming service soon, it may be best to skip free trial offers and instead sign up as a new subscriber closer to Black Friday.
Which streaming services usually offer the best Black Friday deals?
That’s hard to say, as it depends on your preferences. However, it’s worth noting that Netflix has not participated in Black Friday price cuts previously, while we’ve seen deals from Peacock, Disney, Hulu, Starz, Fubo and more, so there should be plenty of offerings to help you get access to new content at a great price.
