Get your first month of Disney+ and Hulu for under $10
SAVE $3: Through Feb. 17, new and returning subscribers can get their first month of the Disney+ and Hulu streaming bundle for just $9.99. That's $3 cheaper than the usual $12.99 per month list price and cheaper than buying one month of either individual service.

Streaming deals are few and far between now that the special holiday discounts have all dried up. But I did manage to find one worth your time and money (you're welcome!).
Through Feb. 17, new and eligible returning subscribers can sign up for Disney+ and Hulu (with ads) for just $9.99 for the first month. It typically costs $12.99 per month for the bundle, so you'll save $3 on a month of streaming. Sure, it's not a groundbreaking discount, but a streaming deal is a streaming deal.
At full price, the Disney+ and Hulu streaming bundle is one of the best streaming deals around. By bundling the two services, each $11.99 per month individually, you already save about 46%. With the extra $3 savings on your first month, you end up saving about 58%.
There are a few things to note: This offer is only valid for new and eligible returning Hulu and Disney+ subscribers, which basically means anyone who hasn't been a Hulu or Disney+ subscriber in the past month or so. And, of course, after your first month, the price will automatically jump back to $12.99 per month unless you cancel before then.
Both Hulu and Disney+ have pretty expansive catalogs filled with award-winning original series and a boatload of movies fresh out of the theater. That includes several of Mashable's favorites from the past year, including Dying for Sex, The Life of Chuck, Andor, The Lowdown, and The Ugly Stepsister. Getting unlimited access to both of these libraries for under $10 is definitely a steal, even if you have to watch a few ads along the way.

Bad Bunnys halftime show sparked emotional reactions across the Americas. See the heartwarming videos now.
During Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show, millions of viewers experienced the performance together — cheering in living rooms, filming on their phones, and reacting in real time. But for those of Latin American descent, hearing their home countries named out loud during Benito's grand finale made the moment especially meaningful.
In his closing act, Bad Bunny transformed the stage into a celebration of the Americas. Dancers carried flags from countries across North, Central, and South America, while a massive screen behind him flashed messages like "The only thing more powerful than hate is love." He capped the roll call of nations with a declaration that "together, we are America," framing the finale as a moment of shared identity and joy.
For those watching at home, the emotion didn't end when the music stopped. Viewers immediately took to social media to document their reactions, sharing clips of their friends and families cheering, hugging, and erupting with pride when their countries were named — turning a televised performance into a collective celebration.
Together, these clips formed a digital mosaic of diaspora, stitched from small, intimate moments across phone screens and time zones. Each video captured the same feeling: that for a few minutes, home — wherever it was — didn't feel so far away.

Best last-minute deals on Valentines Day flowers so far — you have way more options than plain roses
The Bouqs Co.

Unless your recipient has explicitly expressed their disdain for receiving flowers (we all know at least one hater), you really can't go wrong with surprising someone with fresh blooms for Valentine's Day. Not when there are so many opportunities to pick out a truly unique bouquet that fits his or her tastes: Most of the best flower delivery services are offering great last-minute Valentine's Day deals on flower deliveries, saving you 25% to 50% on a gift for the upcoming romantic weekend.
1-800-Flowers is your go-to spot for a classic bouquet of roses on a budget, while The Bouqs Co. and Urban Stems have elevated takes on traditional arrangements that aren't like anything you'd walk past in the grocery store. A majority of bouquets on sale can be delivered by Saturday, Feb. 14 (check the earliest possible delivery date for each). Either way, you're bound to find some pretty stems that scream "them" — so while the timing itself is rushed, the flowers they receive don't have to feel like an afterthought.

Mashable's shopping team has spent quite a bit of time with Ultimate Ears Bluetooth speakers and we're big fans. We love the Hyperboom and Epicboom, but the itty bitty Wonderboom is one of our absolute favorites. If you're in the market for a portable Bluetooth speaker, we highly recommend this tiny powerhouse — especially when it's on sale.
As of Feb. 10, the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 is down to just $69.99 at Amazon. That's 30% off its list price of $99.99 and just 10 bucks shy of its best-ever price from Black Friday.
Our favorite sub-$100 Bluetooth speaker, the Wonderboom 4 fits in the palm of your hand but offers surprisingly balanced and powerful sound. As Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard noted in our roundup, "the sound profile is well-rounded and can get loud."
It can last up to 14 hours on a full charge, handles drops from up to five feet like a champ, and can be submerged in water for up to half an hour. We do wish it offered a companion app to customize the sound profile, but for a ultra-portable no-frills speaker, it's an excellent value.
