Last Chance To Create My Mega $5 Cyber Monday VPN And Streaming Deal Combo

It's been a great time to save on streaming services and get even more from them with the assistance of a VPN. But with Cyber Monday taking place today, I need to warn you that all these deals will be coming to an end so soon, and that means you also don't have long to make the most of the ultimate VPN and streaming service bundle – all for sub $5 a month.

Why is it the ultimate bundle? Well, having a VPN on side allows you to optimize whatever subscription you sign up to. It's a piece of software that can make your device (be it a smartphone, laptop, etc.) appear to be located anywhere in the world. That makes bypassing any geo-restrictions you might face while travelling no problem at all. And I'm going to tell you how to get both for no more than $5.

I've already talked about why I'm not signing up to the Cyber Monday Disney Plus bundle due to the deals Ts&Cs. But I'm totally not bitter about it, because I'm going to marry together the best Cyber Monday streaming deals and this year's Cyber Monday VPN deals to create something that's arguably even better. With or Without the Disney Plus bundle.

So, let's do this...

Starting budget: $5

How To Build Your Own Cyber Monday VPN Streaming Bundle

1. Choose The Right Cyber Monday VPN Deal

First things first, you need to choose your VPN. There are a fair few deals out there for Cyber Monday, but I choose Surfshark. It's really affordable at $1.99 a month, and it's got a great track record of being able to unblock streaming services. It also offers reliable security, and it's speedy, as stated in sister site Tom's Guide's Surfshark review.

Surfshark: $4.98 $1.99 A Month On 2 Year Plan + 4 Months Free
Save 60% - Surfshark comes in at number 2 for Tom's Guide as the overall best VPN and also its best streaming VPN guide. It's a great little VPN, especially intuitive if you're new to the world of VPNs with a seamless, cool interface across devices. Of course, most important of all for us, it's also very good at unblocking and a more affordable option if Nord is a bit steep for you. It also offers unlimited connections.

Or you could also opt for Privado, which was down to $2.99 a month for Cyber Monday, but now is even cheaper with CinemaBlend's exclusive link. That makes it cheaper even than Surfshark at $1.11 a month, and one to consider in your VPN and streaming bundle, though admittedly its unblocking isn't quite as strong.

Exclusive

Privado: $1.48 $1.11 A Month On 2 Year Plans + 3 Months Free
Save 90% - Tom's Guide described PrivadoVPN's Cyber Monday deal as great if "you're looking for a VPN that balances speed, unblocking power, and solid security." It's more limited than others, only able to unblock US Netflix. However, it did well elsewhere in unblocking BBC iPlayer, Disney Plus, and other services. It also has a free plan, allowing you to give the service a go before subscribing to its premium version. Note that features like unblocking may only be available on the paid-for version, though.

There are cheaper subscriptions out there where Black Friday VPN deals are concerned, including Privado's $1.48 a month deal, and FastestVPN's Lifetime Plan, which costs you a one-off payment of $23. This works out as a pretty solid rate of as little as... Well, it depends how long you live for, I guess. But, as I said, Surfshark is definitely one of the top providers out there, especially when still seeking quality.

Budget remaining: $3.01

2. Browse The Streaming Services On Sale This Cyber Monday

First up is Peacock's $1.99 a month deal on its Premium plan. This comes ad-supported, but boasts a pretty cozy catalog of on-demand content including feel good sitcoms like Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Office US, and all the Real Housewives iterations you could want.

Peacock: $7.99 $1.99 A Month For 6 Months
Save 75% - Admittedly, this particular Cyber Monday deal from Peacock isn't as good as last year's. Last year allowed you to pay $1.99 a month for a whole 12 months before defaulting to the standard rate. That said, if there are things you want to watch right now before cancelling, this gives you plenty of time. And a 75% discount isn't to be sniffed at. You can easily binge through new hits including The Day of the Jackal and High Potential, as well as watching the reboot Twisters.

With that much cash still to spare, we're practically millionaires, bagging tons of great content on-demand for under $5. Especially when you consider 2024's best Hulu Black Friday deals start you off with its With-Ads plan costing just 99 cents a month for 12 months, which I can stretch to with what's left in my budget.

Hulu: $9.99 $0.99 A Month For First 12 Months
Save 90% - Hulu's legendary Cyber Monday deal is back for 2024, reprising its 99 cents deal. New customers can sign up and lock in a rate of just 99 cents a month for the first 12 months. Considering Hulu's latest price hike, this makes this its biggest saving yet, down from $9.99 a month to just 99 cents, saving a total of $108 across the year.

3. Look At Alternative Streaming Savings

There are other ways to get the ultimate Black Friday bundle. You could get one of Paramount Plus' plans for $2.99 a month – but that deal only gets you the discount for your first two months. Max is slightly more generous with its offer, costing the same $2.99 a month rate but for six months. Opt for either and you're almost at your limit of $4.98.

Paramount Plus: $2.99 A Month For First Two Months
Save up to 76% - Saddle up with Paramount Plus' Cyber Monday deal and secure either plan for a killer price of just $2.99 a month on both its Essential plan (usually $7.99 a month), or its more expensive Paramount Plus With Showtime plan (down from $12.99 a month). This discounted rate is available for the first two months, thereafter your subscription will default to the standard rate of whichever plan you choose. Home to Tulsa King, Landman, 1883, SEAL Team, and more, there's no better time to sign up.

Disney Plus Duo Basic: $10.99 $2.99 A Month For 12 Months
Save 72% - The Disney Plus bundle remains one of the most exciting streaming deals you can get year round, bringing together two incredible streaming services for a cheaper rate than you would subscribing separately. Now you can save 72% every month for the next year on the already great value package, with one of the best Cyber Monday streaming deals making a reprise for the second year in a row. Hulu is down to 99 cents this Cyber Monday – pay just $2 more and get both With-Ads plans for sub-$3!

Look, just because I can't reap the streaming benefits of the Disney Plus bundle discount doesn't mean you should miss out. And coming in just 2 cents under budget, it's a pretty perfect bundle for streaming.
