Streaming services have become a modern cultural staple in that 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 for which you have yet to secure a shared password, these are the streaming deals to take advantage of.

Our top pick

Opens in a new tab Credit: Verizon Netflix Premium — get a year for free (save $240) (opens in a new tab) Purchase another subscription through Verizon +play Get Deal (opens in a new tab)

Why we like it

Netflix's threat to crack down on password sharing is set to start ruining lives this spring. Verizon is offering a loophole in the form of a free year of Netflix Premium (the tier you'll need for more than two simultaneous streams in different locations). The catch is that you'll have to purchase another subscription, like Paramount+ or Super Duolingo, through +play, Verizon's free subscription hub. It's a total steal if you were planning to pay for one of those anyway. It'll save you $240 over the year ($19.99/month).
