Google just announced the Chromecast with Google TV for $99, but a little less known is a deal that allows you to tack on 6 months of Netflix ($95.94 worth of credit) for a grand total of $139.99, bringing the effective price of the Chromecast to $44.05.

Seems to be a long-running deal (through to December 31, 2021).

Tips:

  • If you're a Google One subscriber, you'll get 3% back in store credit if you're on a 200 GB plan, or 10% back in store credit if you're on a 2 TB or higher plan.
  • You can purchase three of these bundles per Google account.
  • The deal is available to both new and existing Netflix subscribers.
  • The 6 months of Netflix offer is based on a Standard plan ($15.99/month). Netflix works off a dollar-based credit model, so if you're on a Basic plan ($10.99/month), you'll actually get 8.73 months worth of credit, but if you're on a Premium plan ($19.99/month), you'll get 4.80 months worth of credit.
  • If you've redeemed the Netflix offer, but end up returning the Chromecast, Google will refund you $99; meaning you'll still have scored $95.94 worth of Netflix credit for $40.99.

Note: Previously out of stock, and now back in stock! If it goes out of stock again, keep refreshing the page as Google has progressively added stock on previous occasions.

      You'll all happily downvote me whilst remaining anonymous, but none of you are willing to put your name to defending the indefensible actions of Netflix. Disgusting.

        And tell me what you do beside complaining on a totally non related topic. I do hope calling out others who might just don't have the same focus in life with you makes you sleep better at night. That should really bring people to root for you mate (not). Myself along with other would never condone such act (if netflix in fact does what you claim it does) but I don't agree with your aggressive approach either. This calling out culture is one of the things that make the world sucks. I dont expect you to change at all, just do what you need to do but yeah i said it.

  • ar993 on 09/10/2020 - 09:21

    Thanks, OP. Was waiting for it to be available again.

      A $55 savings is just 'ok'?

      • AN Other on 09/10/2020 - 17:16

        $9 saving a month over six months vs $140 out of pocket today? You won't even notice you've saved anything. That's assuming you don't already have Chromecast and you want one.

        • Borg on 09/10/2020 - 17:26

          That's kind of like saying, its poinrless to use CashRewards or Shopback. One only builds $$ over time.
          Now in a few years I have accumulated over $1000. That's 1K in my pocket that I would not have had, just as $55 is another $55 in my pocket.
          Luckily for me in this instance. I just add the Credit to friends account and he gives me the $$. In turn an instant savings of $46 Chromecast and better than spending $99.

          • AN Other on 10/10/2020 - 10:24

            @Borg: It's not like saying that. It's saying that you are out of pocket today by an extra $40, but each month your outgoings are $15 less. Personally, I'd rather have cash in the bank today vs a six month saving, but each to their own.

            As I said, I have a Chromecast, so I can't justify paying for this. Different for others.

        • spedohero on 09/10/2020 - 17:33

          I think getting the chromecast with google store credit is much better choice if you didn’t use Netflix.

          • Borg on 09/10/2020 - 17:37

            @spedohero: That's true hence this deal is pointed at those who have or are planning using Netflix (& in the Market for the device) OR for those that perhaps have a friend who uses Netflix and happy to accept the credit and pay you the $95.94 in cash (which is what I did). Ends up being a $46 device which is better than the Google Store credit. This specific deal is not for all.

            • spedohero on 09/10/2020 - 19:47

              @Borg: Yeah i would prefer to sell it if possible.

              Selling credit to stranger would be hard on ebay or gumtree.

          • AN Other on 10/10/2020 - 10:26

            @spedohero: What's the Google Store credit bit?

    • Borg on 09/10/2020 - 09:32

      @AN Other: Seriously?. How can you say that $55 (55.5% off) isn't as good as it seems? That's a massive savings for somebody who already pays for Netflix Oz. And before anyone mentioned is, "no" I have no interest in Netflix Turkey and using a VPN. Can only shake my head!

      • AN Other on 09/10/2020 - 17:14

        Yeah, but it's $140 paid now to save $55 over six months, so less than $10 a month cashflow reduction vs $140 paid out today. If you don't have Chromecast it's okay. If like me you do, would you fork out $140 to save $10 a month on Netflix? It's not great.

    Back in stock but in fact $40 for 6 months of netflix is what the Turkish pays. So it's still $99 for a TV stick that is for sure going on sale very soon. Will wait.

    • recycledrevenge on 09/10/2020 - 10:24
      +1

      You get $95.94 Netflix credit, which brings the cost of the Chromecast down to about $40.

      • Penpinch on 09/10/2020 - 11:16

        Not when I pay AU$7 a month. It only brings it down to $97.

        • recycledrevenge on 09/10/2020 - 12:04
          +1

          If you pay $7 a month, your $94 credit would last for 13 months.

      • AN Other on 10/10/2020 - 10:32

        Not really. It costs you $140 today, and depending on your Netflix contact you'll claw back $95 in 4-6 months. But the point is your bank balance today will be $140 down not $45 down.

    <rant>

    All you people complaining it's not a deal because you get cheap Turkish Netflix through morally questionable VPN activity should be ashamed of yourself.

    Same as people paying substantially less for Spotify, YouTube, 7-Eleven petrol etc by being dodgy. I don't understand why Ozbargain permits those sort of deal posts but not other things.

    I argue it's basically the same as stealing or doing that self checkout thing where you buy an expensive fruit/vegetable but enter in a cheap thing like potatoes or something.

    </rant>

  • edisonAU on 09/10/2020 - 10:37

    I've just ordered it. I don't have Netflix. Does it mean I can apply for Turkish account and then apply the Netflix credit into the account?

      No, use it on Australian netflix on the new account. When the six months are up then cancel and sign up again on the turkish

    • sh4hp on 09/10/2020 - 10:47

      Was thinking of doing this. If it doesn't work, just send it back for refund.

      • zol1 on 09/10/2020 - 12:15

        You'll only get the device cost back $99

        • sh4hp on 09/10/2020 - 15:10

          Only if you have redeemed the netflix offer right? If the turks don't accept it, then it's not redeemed.

          Or am I getting it wrong?

          • zol1 on 09/10/2020 - 16:24

            @sh4hp: I think they can't tell so they just don't refund that portion. Add to that, I don't think your netflix account will reject it but it just won't deduct the amount being in a different currency. At least that's what happened with me and Uber

        • Ragzs on 09/10/2020 - 13:45

          Android TV has an app that does that, so I'm sure you could download it or sideload it onto the Google TV. Its called tv wirl or something. Otherwise theres an add on for kodi that would work aswell.

  • Econwatson on 09/10/2020 - 11:32

    Thanks for this - I had ordered the device on its own but this looks too good to pass up and there seems to be no penalty to cancel your order and go for this one.

    Unfortunately it appears to have pushed back my delivery date from the beginning of November to Mid-November. My 2016 Telstra TV is on its last legs so hopefully it holds out that long!
