Black Friday typically offers some streaming deals each year, but the period immediately following is a bit less predictable. If you have a Roku streaming device, you can continue your shopping spree with offers on services such as Apple TV, Howdy and Starz.
You can currently get three months of Apple TV (formerly Apple TV Plus) for free in the Apple TV app on your Roku device with an offer that ends on Jan. 19. Roku’s recently launched ad-free streaming service, Howdy, typically costs $3 per month, but you can stream for $1 per month for two months with a current deal that expires on Jan. 2. You can also get a 30-day free trial of the budget-friendly live TV streaming service Frndly TV right now in the app on your device before the deal runs out on Jan. 5.
If you frequently visit The Roku Channel, you may be interested in discounts on premium subscriptions, which are similar to Prime Video’s add-on subscriptions. Hallmark Plus, Starz or BET Plus on the Roku Channel are all $2 per month for two months right now. Here’s a list of even more Roku offers to check out.
