Idk how I feel about this whole thing. We had the bundle for a while and then they added another standalone Hulu subscription on top. And tried to convince us that's what we wanted/asked for.

I don't even want to pay for one subscription, let alone twice for the same one.

Last year I found that there was a bundle. But I had to sign up for it via Hulu. Now I still get billed for both. At one point I thought that I was over paying, but I found that the Hulu bundle reduces my Disney sub price to add up to the bundle price.

I think. All I know is that it seems more complicated than it should be.

Oh, and by cancelling my Peacock subscription, I was able to sign up for it free (ad-supported), with my Instacart account.

What a world.

I wonder what deals these companies have. Like can anyone buy 1,000 subs at a reduced price and hook up their customers? This combining services with subscription thing is funny.... but it would be real funny if your weed dealer offered you a free account as long as you bought weed from him every month. Stop buying weed and suddenly your Netflix is cutoff.
