There's more to consider than just what supplies to buy this year (though we'll help with that too.)


SAVE 50%: Max launched a brand-new deal for college students this week. Verified students can get a Max with Ads subscription half off, bringing the price down from $9.99 per month to $4.99 per month. That's $5 less per month.


When you're on a student's budget, there's not always tons of room for extra expenses, especially when it comes to expensive streaming services. Now, the days of bumming logins can be over: Max is offering a special discount for college students.

This week, Max launched a new deal that lets college students score a Max with Ads subscription for 50% off. This takes the monthly subscription price down from $9.99 per month to $4.99. This extra $5 per month back in your pocket adds up to $60 over a year. The deal lasts for 12 months, and at the end of the cycle, students can sign up again (as long as they're still in college).

Students must live in the United States and be 18 or older to take advantage of the deal. Students also have to go through a verification process through UNiDAYS, which they'll be redirected to through the Max site. Once their student status is verified by UNiDAYS, they'll receive a discount code via email to claim the sale.
