Every company appears to be butchering quality and hiking prices, nothing is lifetime anymore, if you purchase a software or game, you don't own it, you own a license to it and if they remove it then it's gone. Subscriptions draining your bank account each month, so what you can do about it.

Pirating Software

Whilst not legal in most places, pirating and torrenting software is 100% cheaper then paying, usually the same quality and you don't get fucked over by the company, once it's yours, it's yours.

Buying Accounts

Not all things can be cracked or pirated, marketplaces such as z2u.com, and sharesub allow you to purchase subscriptions & accounts cheap, this is how i'm able to use both kagi and mullvad for the price of mullvad alone. Plati Market, OGUsers and BuiltByBit are also good marketplaces to look at.

Streaming Sites

Screw Netflix & Disney+, jailbreak your fire stick and get a kodi setup or use lookmovie.com, tvshows88.org

Stack Social

Rather stick to the ethical decisions in life? stacksocial offers discounted subscriptions and lifetime products.

Steam Regions

Whilst I do not use steam, obtaining a low income countries account or service and topping them up with gift cards also save you on money. If you do not live in a low income region, as an example it will cost an american $24.99 to purchase a license of Ready or Not, however as a ukranian it will cost the fee of $7.51 USD. Check steamdb for more information.
