If you’ve cut the cable cord or just want to expand your selection of streaming services, consider Peacock, which has a surprisingly large and high-quality catalog. For Black Friday, you can find two good under-the-radar deals that give you access to the streaming service for far less than subscribing to it alone: Through a discounted Walmart+ membership, or by bundling Peacock and Apple TV.
Let me break it down: A Peacock Premium (with ads) subscription normally costs $110 for a year upfront, or $10.99 a month. But you can subscribe to Walmart+ for a year at just $49 right now, and you’ll get a Peacock Premium subscription included, along with a bunch of other perks, like free shipping and grocery delivery, and early access to sales. It’s basically Walmart’s version of Amazon Prime. (If you get tired of Peacock, you can actually switch your subscription option to Paramount+ during the year.)

Another option: Bundle Peacock Premium with Apple TV for $14.99 a month, which is just $2 more than the cost of Apple TV alone, basically getting you Peacock for $2 a month if you’re interested in both services.
On Peacock, you’ll find buzzy original shows like All Her Fault, new movies like How to Train Your Dragon and Downton Abby: The Grand Finale, some of your favorite NBC shows to binge, like Law & Order, 30 Rock, and Saturday Night Live, Bravo shows like The Real Housewives franchise.
After a year of Walmart+ membership, your subscription will auto-renew at the regular price of $98 per year (which is still less than a yearlong Peacock Premium subscription costs), unless you cancel it beforehand. The Apple TV/Peacock bundle should stay the same price unless there’s a larger internal pricing change.
Don’t miss this deal to subscribe to Peacock at a major discount through Walmart+ or the Apple TV bundle.

How I rated this deal
I’d rate both the Walmart+ Peacock deal and the Peacock/Apple TV bundle deals as 5/5 — both get you access to the Peacock streaming service for less than half the price it would usually cost you. If you’re at all interested in signing up, I’d recommend taking advantage of one of those deals now.
The Apple TV and Peacock bundle deal is an ongoing offer. The deal to get Walmart+ for 50% off with an included Peacock subscription ends Dec. 2.
