Disney today kicked off its own "Disney+ Day" in an effort to promote new content coming to the streaming platform. Headlining the event is a discount to $1.99 for one month of Disney+ for new or returning subscribers.

This sale will be valid through this Sunday, November 14 at 11:59 p.m. PST. Anyone who currently subscribes to Disney+ is ineligible for this offer. Those who do enroll will be charged $1.99 for their first month and then $7.99 for all subsequent months, but you can cancel before that time.
Similarly, we're tracking a few Disney-related sales on OtterBox Symmetry Series iPhone cases at Amazon, offering early Black Friday prices on numerous accessories. Many of the cases are priced at $47.99, down from $59.99, and will launch on Black Friday.
There are three different designs, including one with Mickey and friends around Cinderella Castle, and a two that showcase Walt Disney World's park icons. The designs are in celebration of the resort's 50th anniversary, which began last month.
Be sure to visit our Deals Roundup to shop for even more Apple-related products and accessories, and our Black Friday Roundup to prepare for the event later this month.

Will be cancelling my Disney+ once my three year subscription from the launch is over. Absolutely the least used streaming service I have. So much schlock.
Just signed up. You can immediately cancel. You don't get the $1.99 back, of course, but you can continue the service for 30 days and won't be auto-charged for a renewal.
No new content for my kids' age, already canceled the auto-renew at the end of this year.
