Once upon a time, it made sense to load up on streaming services instead of lengthy and expensive cable contracts. If you’re not careful these days, you can easily find yourself paying just as much to piece your watchlist back together, especially with prices continuing to creep up.

That’s why we’re thankful this season for streaming deals like the ones from Hulu, which sets you up with ad-supported streaming for just $1 a month over the next 12 months (normally $9.99 a month, saving $108 on the year), or lets you bundle that with Disney Plus for $3 a month over the same period ($131.88 off). That’s typically a once yearly deal, and your chance to take advantage will promptly leave the station after today.

Until December 2nd at 11:59PM PT, you can get a year of ad-supported Hulu for 99 cents a month or $11.88 for the year. You can also get a Hulu with Disney Plus bundle for $2.99 a month for the next year.

Hulu is one of the best streaming services if you enjoy shows from a variety of broadcast TV networks. It offers next-day streaming from several channels, a deep on-demand library of older shows and movies, originals like The Handmaid’s Tale, news and sports bytes, and more. With Disney Plus, you can catch up on Star Wars and Marvel, watch kid-friendly movies and shows from Disney and the likes of Pixar, check out recent releases like Deadpool & Wolverine, and access a bevy of National Geographic content.

Don’t forget that other streaming services are still discounted with deals similarly drying up soon. Through December 4th, for example, you can get Paramount Plus with Showtime for $2.99 for the next two months ($22.99 off over that period). It grants ad-free access to CBS live sports and events, plus over 40,000 pieces of on-demand content, including shows, movies, and Showtime originals.

Paramount Plus and Showtime grant you ad-free access to live sports as well as movies and shows from both platforms, including Star Trek, Top Gun: Maverick, and Yellowjackets. Until December 4th, wew and returning subscribers can sign up for the ad-free Paramount Plus with Showtime plan for $2.99 a month for two months.

There’s still time to take advantage of other sales still going right now. Max with ads is $3 a month over the next six months ($42 off), with HBO hits like Game of Thrones and Discovery Plus content included. You can also get ad-supported access to NBC’s Peacock Premium for the next year for $19.99 ($60 off) or $1.99 a month of the next six months ($36 off). It also has a sizable catalog of classic and original shows, plus live sports coverage from several leagues like the NFL.
