Hulu has dropped the price of its live TV streaming service, giving cord-cutters a rare discount on the Hulu + Live TV platform. Regularly $69.99, you can get Hulu + Live TV for just $49.99 right now. That’s a 29 percent discount and the lowest price we’ve ever seen for the streaming bundle.

The new deal gets you access to 90+ live TV channels plus Hulu’s entire library of on-demand television shows, movies and Hulu Originals. Subscribers also get access to Disney+ and ESPN+ included in the $49.99 price.

While Hulu offers new promos from time to time (I.e. for National Streaming Day), the latest deal comes on the heels of Disney’s ongoing carriage dispute with Spectrum Cable and parent company Charter Communications, which has seen customers lose access to ABC, ESPN, FX and Freeform on their television sets. Hulu is no doubt hoping to win over Charter customers with the new offer, as those channels are all part of the channel lineup on the Hulu + Live TV plan.

The new Hulu deal gets you three months of Hulu + Live TV streaming for just $49.99 a month. As of Oc. 12, the monthly price will increase to $76.99, so you’ll be saving almost $30 by locking in the discounted pricing now.

There is no promo code required to claim this Hulu deal, though it is a limited-time offer. The deal is only available through Oct. 11.

What Are the Best Hulu Bundle Deals?

As mentioned, the Hulu + Live TV bundle includes more than 90 live TV channels, plus full access to Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN+ (which also includes live sports streaming). You also get unlimited DVR storage to record live TV and watch it back on demand.

Don’t need live TV? You can also get a Hulu deal as part of the popular Disney Bundle, which gets you Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ for just $12.99 a month. The price includes unlimited on-demand streaming for all three services with occasional ads. 

Prefer ad-free streaming? Upgrade to the ad-free version of the Disney Bundle for $19.99. The cheapest Disney Bundle deal, meantime, is on the “Disney Bundle Duo Basic” plan, which gets you Disney+ (with Ads) and Hulu (with Ads) for $9.99 a month. That’s an incredible value for both different streaming services, considering other streamers like Apple TV+ are $6.99 on their own.
