Quicken Simplify (one year) for $36 (50 percent off): We named Quicken Simplify the best budgeting app this year because it lives up to its name. It’s the cleanest budgeting app on the market, with an interface designed to be welcoming to newcomers and with important information no more than a scroll away.

DeleteMe (all services) for 30 percent off with code BFCM30OFF25.:DeleteMe scrubs your information from people search sites and other public-facing data brokers, dramatically reducing your online presence.

Although its free plan comes with unlimited data, we recommend upgrading to get the full set of servers and features. This deal will get you servers in 117 countries; Even better, every one of the ones we’ve tested so far can unblock Netflix.

ExpressVPN Basic (15 months) for $52.39 (73 percent off): ExpressVPN may be the most user-friendly VPN on sale right now, with fast download speeds (only a 7 percent loss in our last test), quick connections, and apps designed to stay out of your way. It’s not the most feature-rich, but it excels at any bread-and-butter VPN task, staying leak-free and unblocking Netflix everywhere. You also get access to server locations in 105 countries.
Surfshark Starter (27 months) for $53.73 (87 percent off): According to the tests we conducted for our latest review, Surfshark is the fastest VPN right now, with its download speeds, upload speeds, and latency beating all competitors. There’s more to it than just speed, as it’s able to constantly rotate your IP address and generate double VPN paths between any two servers you choose.
NordVPN Basic (27 months) for $80.73 (74 percent off): NordVPN received very positive marks in our previous review, where we mentioned its fast Internet speeds, wide network of server locations, and selection of exclusive features. It comes with a range of dedicated servers for obfuscation, onion routing, torrenting, and more. Plus, it’s one of the first VPNs to make the leap to post-quantum encryption.
CyberGhost VPN (28 months) for $56.84 (84 percent off)CyberGhost has always been cheap – in fact, we named it the best budget VPN – but it’s never behaved like an affordable option. Its Smart Rules automation controls are the deepest in the industry, and its server network reaches 100 countries. The speeds are also quite good, although it sometimes takes a while for the connection to be established.
Private Internet Access VPN (40 months) for $79.20 (83 percent off): Although we weren’t entirely positive about Private Internet Access (PIA VPN) in our recent review, we can’t deny that it’s a worthwhile option for an affordable VPN. Although speeds can fluctuate, it comes with several desirable features on all platforms, such as port forwarding (which makes torrents more stable) and two types of split tunneling.
