If you’ve been looking to try Disney Plus, but haven’t wanted to spend the money, you’re in luck. Disney Plus just announced a new promotion that’ll let you access the streaming service for several months — at a fraction of the cost. And if you’re already a Disney Plus subscriber, you can still take advantage of these savings. It's a good deal, considering Disney will raise subscription prices next month.
So, if you’re interested in saving on streaming (and don’t mind ads), you can now get Disney Plus Basic (with ads) for just $1.99 a month for three months — 75% off. The deal is available for both new and returning customers in the U.S. only and in total can save you $18. You’ll want to jump on this fast though; the promotion expires September 27. Once the three-month period is over, your subscription will auto-renew at the retail price until canceled.
Disney Plus price increases
The standard price for a Disney Plus with ads subscription is $7.99 but will increase to $9.99 a month on October 17. A Disney Plus premium subscription, which costs $13.99, will increase to $15.99 a month at that time.

Current popular titles available to stream on Disney Plus include Inside Out, Star Wars: The Acolyte and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
