If you’re not currently a Disney+ subscriber and are on the fence about signing up, do it today. This will produce the largest saving and will be the cheapest subscription rate you’ll ever get.
If you’re currently an existing Disney+ subscriber paying monthly, consider switching to an annual subscription today. For example in the UK, switching to annual subscription today before the price increase tomorrow will save you £19.91.
