Best Netflix deal
One year of Netflix

(save $185)
Streaming services have become a modern cultural staple: 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 top apps. If you’ve had your eye on a particular streaming service, see if this week’s best streaming deals are the incentive you’ve been waiting for.
Our top pick
Why we like it
Netflix will officially be axing their cheapest ad-free (aka their most affordable) subscription plan. Though there are no details on if or when this will affect U.S. users, folks in the UK and Canada will no longer be able to access the plan in the second quarter of this year.
Mashable Deals
So how to get around what is essentially a price raise for the service? Go for the deals. Though Netflix’s are rare, if you’re a Verizon customer, you’re in luck. Through +play, (which comes at no additional cost), when you buy one valid seasonal or annual subscription, you get Netflix Premium for a year, cost-free. That’s a year of Netflix’s highest plan, which usually clocks in at $22.99 per month. You can also bundle Netflix Premium and Starz for $25.99 per month, saving you $6.99 per month (or $83.88 annually).
