Every year, there’s always one streaming platform that refuses to get in on the Black Friday sales action: Netflix.
Admittedly, the world’s best streaming service doesn’t really need to. With 260 million+ subscribers, it’s the most popular platform of its kind on the planet. Add in the constant stream of new Netflix movies and shows to its ever-expanding back catalog, and its cost-effective ad-supported tier that’s competitively priced against its peers, and Netflix doesn’t need to offer discounts to attract new users.
Is there a Netflix Black Friday offer that I can take advantage of?
In short: no. Netflix hasn’t reduced the monthly or annual cost of its various plans for Black Friday 2025. If you’re a new or returning customer, you’ll have to part with the same amount of cash as the rest of us.
Right now, the cheapest tier available to you is Netflix’s Standard with Ads plan. The monthly cost of 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 around, then, this is the cheapest option available to you.
So, I can’t watch Stranger Things season 5 for less on Netflix during Black Friday 2025?
Nope. The first four episodes of Stranger Things season 5 are out now on Netflix, but you won’t be able to watch it at a reduced price over Black Friday weekend. In order to catch Stranger Things‘ fifth and final season, you’ll have to sign up to one of Netflix’s current plans – the cheapest of which is, as I outlined above, the ads-based tier.

Are there any Black Friday streaming deals to take advantage of?
Yes! Netflix isn’t involved in the biggest sales event of the year – again – but plenty of its rivals are.
