    Disney+ - During Black Friday when they give out $5 a month for a year offers only. SiriusXM - Only when they offer $5 a month for a year deals. Netflix - Base plan only and if you’ve figured a workaround to watch it without ads. Tello - No-contract based phone plans for dirt cheap. Even better than Mint Mobile. ProtonVPN

    The trick is to scour for deals and offers. Never pay full regular price for something and always cancel a few days before the due date so you’re not charged the full amount once the deal ends.

      No. Absolutely no to the streaming services. If you’re into movies I recommend a plan for your local movie theatre, if they offer it. Or just visiting whenever something you like comes out.

      Looking for deals is a great recommendation for most services though, big savings for Proton are possible there too.

        No. Absolutely no to the movie theatre.

        Just pirate like a normal person.

        I mean I agree that streaming is bad but what the hell kind of suggestion is that?? Theaters aren’t running reruns of Malcom in the Middle and they definitely aren’t doing it on-demand so how is it a replacement for streaming?
