There Isn’t a Disney+ Free Trial, But This Is the Next Best Thing

By Noah McGraw November 8, 2021

We love sharing free stuff with you. Unfortunately, Disney took its usual Disney+ free trial off the table this week. An interesting strategy so close to Black Friday, to be sure. Thankfully they have an offer that’s almost as good. Right now you can get one month of Disney+ for only $2. Again, it’s not free, but it’s the next best thing. This offer is part of “Disney+ Day,” a massive event on Friday, November 12, that will feature lots of new movies available for streaming, some entirely new original movies and shorts, and the launch of Disney+ in new countries. This offer is available to anyone not currently subscribed, meaning new customers and people who have previously canceled their subscriptions can grab a month of Disney+ for only $2.

If you grab this Disney+ promotion, you’ll be just in time for the new movies and shows. For Disney+ Day, Disney announced that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings will come to streaming. The Marvel movie premiered in theaters at the beginning of September. Jungle Cruise, the adventure film starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt, will also become available to stream for all subscribers. Disney also announced half-dozen new short films and series, including a Frozen spinoff and a Simpsons special. There’s even going to be a new Home Alone movie!

Of course, you’ll get access to all of the usual streaming options as well, including some of the best movies and best TV series for binge-watching. You’ll have access to every season of The Simpsons, everything ever released with a Star Wars logo (besides the holiday special), the complete Marvel Cinematic Universe, and more!

If the newly announced movies and series have piqued your interest, or you’ve just been holding out on getting that subscription until the right deal came along, this is your chance. Sure, it’s not a free trial, but it’s the next best thing. You can get your first month of Disney+ for only $2. This applies to anyone who isn’t currently subscribed to Disney+. So even if you’ve had a subscription in the past but canceled, you can jump back on the wagon for only $2.

Use This Trick to Get a FREE 6-Month Disney+ Subscription Today

Disney Plus.

While there's no Disney+ free trial out there right now, we've found something even better. Right now, Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers can enjoy up to 6 months of Disney+ entirely for free when they sign up for just one month of Amazon Music Unlimited. Seriously, it's that good an offer. All you need to do is pay for a month's worth of Amazon Music Unlimited and you get 6 months of Disney+ for free, provided you've never tried the music streaming service before. If you have, you get 3 months of Disney+ for free so it's still pretty awesome. Read on while we tell you all about how it works, or hit the button below to get started.

Promising to be exactly as good as it sounds, all you need to do is sign up to 1 month of Amazon Music Unlimited. It costs just $8 if you're a Prime member or $10 if you're not. In exchange, if you've never tried Amazon Music Unlimited before, you get 6 free months of Disney+ just for signing up. Alternatively, current or former Amazon Music Unlimited subscribers get 3 months for free. The catch? Current Disney+ subscribers can't benefit from this offer but everyone else gets in on the action without a problem.

There's an awful lot of talk about bingeing TV shows on services like Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and beyond, but people tend to forget about some of the other content that's out there. For example, there are also podcasts, audiobooks, online videos, and courses -- on YouTube, for example -- and so much more. You can watch, read, or listen to a lot of that stuff, anywhere, by grabbing one of the best rugged tablets.

For those interested, Audible is offering a whole month's access to its Premium Plus subscription, which nets you a huge catalog of original and guided wellness content, as well as a ton of podcasts and audiobooks. If you're a Prime member and you sign up, you'll get double the credits to grab premium titles, which are then yours to keep! Check it out.
