Happy Black Friday! We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Since our last email when we talked about some of the other (non-Amazon) channel sales, several people emailed to ask what kind of British content they can find on those services.
So - today and tomorrow, while there's still plenty of time to lock in the deals, we're highlighting exactly that.
Hulu: 99 cents/month for 12 months OR $2.99/month for 12 months to get both Hulu and Disney+ in a bundle.
Max (previously HBO Max): $2.99/month for 6 months
Before we get into more deals, a quick look at what's in store this week...

The opportunity to lock in these prices for 2 months ends on December 2nd. Last time they did a sale, a few people mentioned it would be handy if we sent out a reminder about 55 days later so people who intended to cancel could be reminded - so we've pre-scheduled an email for January 15th to help everyone remember, just in case some people are on tight budgets and can't afford to forget to cancel before the price goes up.
You never spoke to me, I never gave you this, and it would be better if nobody ever found out you knew anything about it.
