Hulu has finally entered the early Black Friday deals arena and it's fair to say, it was worth the wait. As one of the biggest hitters in the sales period, I've been patiently waiting to hear what discounts it has in store this year and from what I've seen so far, it's very good news for bargain hunters.

The big headline-grabber is that Hulu's best Black Friday deal is back, which brings down the price for a 12-month subscription to its with ads plan to a record low. We last saw this ridiculously low rate of $0.99 a month in 2023, after taking a two-year break from first appearing in 2020, so Hulu has been known to surprise.

As the best streaming service for TV lovers, I expect this deal will be one of the most popular this sales season. But there are more than eight Hulu plans available to choose from, including bundles like the Hulu, Disney Plus and Max mega bundle, which gives you a 38% saving on the cost of buying them separately. I've included these discounted bundles alongside exclusive offers, free trials and the best Black Friday streaming deals, so make sure to browse all the offers below to find the best Hulu deal for you.

Today's best Hulu deals: Quick links

Black Friday Hulu deals: My top 3 picks

Hulu ad-supported annual plan: $9.99$0.99 at Hulu

Hulu ad-supported annual plan: was $9.99 per month now $0.99 at Hulu
Hulu's ad-supported price is normally just under $10 a month, but as part of its Black Friday offer, you can pick it up for a steal at $0.99 a month. If you don't mind the commercials, that's a saving of over $100 for a year's worth of Hulu, which gives you access to all the great shows of the past and all the great stuff to come in 2025.

Starz Hulu-add on: $10.99$0.99 per month at Hulu

Starz Hulu-add on: was $10.99 a month now $0.99 per month at Hulu
Hulu's ad-supported price is normally just under $10 a month, but as part of its Black Friday offer, you can pick it up for a steal at $0.99 a month. Then, you can add six months' worth of Starz onto that for an additional $0.99 per month. Two premium streamers for $1.98 for six months? We consider that quite the bargain.

Disney Plus and Hulu annual ad-supported plan: $10.99$2.99 at Hulu and Disney Plus

Disney Plus and Hulu annual ad-supported plan: was $10.99 per month now $2.99 at Hulu and Disney Plus
Both Disney Plus and Hulu's ad-supported plans are normally just under $11 dollars a month for a bundle, but you can now get them both for $2.99 a month, representing a saving of more than 72% on annual plan. Sadly, you'll have to watch commercials on both streaming services, but with a saving of over $200 on offer compared to if you bought both services separately, we suspect you'll think it's a price worth paying. Offer ends on December 3.

This offers gets you the all-new mega bundle, which includes Hulu, Disney Plus and Max subscriptions, for three-months for 43% off buying each service on its own. One thing to note is that this bundle offer only applies to each service's ad-supported plan so don't expect to find premium features as part of this bundle. But you do unlock access to the best Disney Plus movies, the best Disney Plus shows, the best Max shows and the best Max movies alongside great Hulu's great content library.

Hulu with ads or ad-free plans: $17.99$0 at Hulu

Like the bundle offers above, this introductory deal is not part of the Black Friday sales but it's a great way to try out Hulu. New and eligible returning customers can try out Hulu's on-demand plans with a 30-day Hulu free trial, which is four times longer than its usual 7-day free trial offer. Thereafter, you'll have to pay $7.99 a month for its with-ads plan, or $17.99 a month to cut out the commercials. A free trial has also returned for its Hulu with Live TV plan. New subscribers can try the cord cutting service for 3 days. Find out more about how to get a Hulu free trial in our guide.

While this offer isn't directly linked to Black Friday, there's no way we could ignore it in this roundup of the best Hulu deals as it gets students a massive 75% saving off their streaming bills. If you're wondering how to get a Hulu student discount, it's very straightforward as it only requires you to verify that you're enrolled at a US Title IV accredited college or university.
