Black Friday 2018 is right around the corner, and plenty of retailers like Best Buy, Costco, Target, Walmart, and more have already shared the deals planned for the forthcoming holiday shopping event, with some of them even being live right now. As it so happens, there's one deal that gamers can currently take advantage of should they wish to get a subscription for one full year of PlayStation Plus for the remarkably low price of $30.
Those wishing to snag a full year of PlayStation Plus for what is the lowest price ever offered for the online subscription service would do well to head on over to Walmart's website right here, and they will see that the price is listed at $39.99, which is $20 off the suggested retail price. However, there's a catch to getting the extra price cut. In order to get an extra $10 knocked off of the final tally, it will need to be one's first online order with Walmart, and PlayStation fans will need to use the promo code "Ellen10" at checkout, resulting in $30 worth of savings on the 12-month membership.
As inferred by the promo code, this Black Friday 2018 deal comes courtesy of the talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres, with her recently announcing the offer by way of her television show, Ellen, as a way to give back to her fans. The promo offer for $10 off any purchase over $35 at Walmart's online site with "Ellen10" will last all the way through December 31, 2018, but the discount on PlayStation Plus will be ending soon. So, for those in the market to either start a new PS Plus account or re-up for another year would do well to strike while the iron is hot on this deal.
Beyond getting 12 months of PlayStation Plus for $30, Sony Interactive Entertainment is also offering fans a wide range of digital sales through the PlayStation Store right now, with over 150 games, bundles, and DLC packs having been given major discounts from their full prices. So, taking all of this into consideration, it's definitely a good time for PlayStation Plus members and general fans of the brand alike to stock up on deals.
