Hi recently I found out that I get Fitb*t premium bundled free with my health insurance form U*ited healthcare Medicare advantage plan for a year.
Spouse is looking to change from sprint to veriz*n t-mob*le magenta max senior plan and gets taxes and fees paid free and it includes standard Netfl*x free if you have two lines. The current sprint plan covers AAA free for one I believe.

Our electric company allowed us to buy a new model N*st thermostat for a buck and like $10 tax at their products store section.

I get ebook credits on A*azon for choosing a slightly delayed deliver date.

Our car insurance reduces price if we let them track our driving with their gadget and an app on our cell phones..

I am curious as to what free, cost reducing, or greatly reduced price bundled things others get that I am overlooking?

ATT throws in HBO Max with certain of their cellular plans. We use it some, though we still use Netflix and Amazon more.
 
You really opened the door. I suspect you will get more answers than you want. Here goes:
  • Verizon wireless some times gives you one year of Disney+ or Google games
  • Purchase of a streaming device some times gets you a trial subscription to xyz
  • Many streaming services give you 7 day trials

Enough for now.
 
Hulu & Disney+ is affordable. Also, I suspend service for 6 weeks when I "catch up" with new episodes. During the 6 weeks I try out others like Paramount, Discovery or Netflix. Just jump in/out when you get to that point you can't find anything to watch.
 
When I bought a new IPad 2 years ago, I got Apple TV free for a year.
 
Just had work done on my 2011 Tahoe at a Chevy dealer and got 3 months free of Sirius/XM.
Also have HBO/Max free with our ATT internet at home. Not something I'd pay for but occasionally watch a show.

Any reason for using * in the company names? You mention not being able to find anything in a search, and then use some bizarre naming method that nobody else will find on their searches.
 
DH and I started a new T-Mobile Magenta 55+ for 2 lines and it includes the free Netflix another poster mentioned and also a free year of AppleTV+. The Apple TV+ can have extra people added on and we added one of our sons.

Also, if you have a T-Mobile Money account to get the normal 1% interest, they offer 4% interest on the first $3000 in the account if you make 10 debit card transactions in a month. We set up autopay for 7 transactions for bills and then I use the debit card 3 more times. This is a little annoying but we are giving it a try. We don't have many bills and a few charge a fee for using a credit or debit card rather then ACH.

Thanks for the replies. Some good stuff out there. I rather not use 3 or 7 day trial though personally as barely enough time to make signing up and then quitting worthwhile.

Regarding the asterisk in the naming of Corporations, I could not remember if we were allowed to use specific company names or not. Some site I used in the past seems to have been a stickler for that. Trying to be compliant to what I thought might be an expectation I tried to make the names understandable but not break a trademark rule or convention about promoting other companies specifically on this site.

Alas the moment I posted I noted I had missed Spr*nt.. lol

The intent was just to share good deals that we stumbled upon that were bundled.
 
Xfinity (Comcast) gives customers free Peacock Premium, which they say is a $4.99/month value. This at first glance sounds great, but the top tier at Peacock is "Premium Plus", which is in total $9.99 per month --- that's the one without ads. Peacock Premium gets you their full line of programming, but with ads.


I ultimately signed up for Premium Plus --- paying the $5 difference --- in order to watch a few things. I'll cancel that soon, once my wife is done re-watching a series that she likes.

Xfinity also offers --- nay, I would say pushes (frequently) --- their own streaming box. Not biting on that one. The last thing I need is yet another streaming box that (also) wants to be the center of my media universe.
