UPDATE: Jul. 1, 2023, 5:00 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: 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 where 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 has officially begun to ruin lives. If you're considering jumping ship, Peacock could be your new go-to for $20 for the entire year with your unique code from Macy's Star Rewards. (Macy's Star Rewards is free to join and doesn't require any payment information.) The 60% off deal, live through July 8, is only for new subscribers and only applies to the tier with ads. But for a single charge of $19.99 versus the usual $49.99 for Premium, commercials suddenly feel tolerable.
Peacock is home to classics (Netflix residents in the good old days) like The Office and Law and Order: SVU, Peacock originals like Poker Face and NBC originals like Saturday Night Live, and tons of movies. All 2023 and 2024 Sunday Night Football games will also be streaming on Peacock.
