Did you know plenty of companies bundle streaming perks into services you're probably already paying for? So why pay twice?
Here's how to legally snag some of the most popular streaming services for less (or for free), depending on what you're already signed up for.

Bundle Disney+, Hulu & ESPN+ for less with Verizon
If you're a Verizon customer on one of its current phone plans — Simplicity, Unlimited Ultimate, Unlimited Plus, Unlimited Welcome, or Welcome Unlimited — you can add the Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ (With Ads) bundle as a perk for $10/month.
That's a solid saving on the $19.99/month you'd pay buying the same three services separately.
Already on an older 5G Get More or 5G Play More plan? Check your account; some legacy plans still come with the bundle included at no extra cost, though those plans aren't available to new customers anymore.

Get Paramount+ (or Peacock) free with Walmart+
Walmart+ members get to pick a free "Video Streaming Choice" benefit — either Paramount+ Essential or Peacock Premium — included with their membership at no extra cost. You can switch between the two every 90 days if you fancy a change.
Walmart+ itself costs $12.95/month or $98/year, with a 30-day free trial for new members. But if you're a college or grad student at a Title IV-accredited US school, Walmart+ Student gets you the whole membership — streaming perk included — for half price: $6.47/month or $49/year, verified through SheerID.
Get Netflix free with T-Mobile
T-Mobile's "Netflix On Us" perk is still going. It's included at no extra cost if you've got two or more lines on a Go5G or Magenta plan, or a single line on one of T-Mobile's higher tiers — Go5G Plus, Go5G Next, Magenta MAX, Experience More, or Experience Beyond.
The perk covers Netflix's Standard plan with ads. You can upgrade to an ad-free plan for a discounted add-on fee through your T-Mobile bill if you'd rather skip the ads.
Streaming perks like these shift often, so it's worth double-checking the current terms before you switch plans or sign anything up.
