Every year, there’s always one streaming platform that refuses to participate in the Black Friday sale: Netflix.
Admittedly, the world’s best streaming service doesn’t really need it. With 260 million+ subscribers, it is the most popular platform of its kind on the planet. Add the steady stream of new Netflix movies and series to its ever-growing back catalog and its cost-effective ad-supported tier that is competitive with its peers, and Netflix doesn’t need to offer discounts to attract new users.
Is there a Netflix Black Friday deal I can take advantage of?
In short: no. Netflix hasn’t reduced the monthly or annual costs of its various plans for Black Friday 2025. If you’re a new or returning customer, you’ll be shelling out the same amount as the rest of us.
Right now, the cheapest tier available to you is Netflix’s standard with ads plan. The monthly cost for this ad-supported subscription is $7.99 in the US, £5.99 in the UK, CAN$9.99 in Canada, AU$9.99 in Australia and NZ$7.99 in New Zealand.
If you want to stream some of the best Netflix movies and best Netflix shows, then this is the cheapest option for you.
So I can’t watch Stranger Things season 5 for less on Netflix during Black Friday 2025?
No. The first four episodes of Stranger Things season 5 is out now on Netflix, but you won’t be able to watch it at a reduced price during the Black Friday weekend. To capture Stranger Things‘ fifth and final season, you’ll need to sign up for one of Netflix’s current plans — the cheapest of which is, as I outlined above, the ad-based tier.
