A Free Trial Is (Usually) Always An Option

If a particular streaming service is not offering a deal right now, it is usually possible to still test the streaming out for a short period of time without paying.

Although the standard free trial length is usually around seven days, it is sometimes possible to get a longer free trial. Hulu, for example, offers the first 30 days for free, saving a minimum of $11.99 on the first month.

While many streaming services do offer a free trial, some don’t, so it is worth checking which ones do before signing up.
