There’s no need to sign up for an expensive cable package or get a brand-spanking new TV in order to watch all of your favorite shows. Nowadays, all you need is a handy streaming stick that you can plug into your existing TV.

One of the best deals on the market right now is the Amazon Fire TV Stick that can stream in full HD. It’s currently $25 (from $40) — nearly 40 percent off! And there's a bonus: Buy it now and you'll get a 14-day Sling TV free trial! That way you can cut the cord and be free from those pesky cable or satellite contracts.

When you add the Fire TV Stick to your cart, simply follow the prompts to complete the transaction before 11:59PM PT on March 19. The promotion code will be emailed to you, and you'll get instructions on how to redeem it. The code itself must be redeemed by 11:59PM on April 18.

If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)

$25 $40 at Amazon

New Sling TV customers who redeem the promotion will start a paid service plan for $35 or $50 a month after the 14-day period is over. You can cancel at any time.

Sling TV is essentially a cable replacement service. You can use it to watch live TV, news and sports just like you can with cable or satellite, but at a fraction of the cost!

“I gave up cable for the obvious reasons,” said one five-star review of the Fire TV Stick. “Skyrocket high cost for commercial TV, infomercials, and reality shows. All the good programming is now available on streaming. Once I finally cut the cable cord, my TV just sat there unused while I watched everything on my computer which is not always comfortable. So, I got this for when I’m in bed and glad I did. This is my first experience and I have only had it for a week now and am happy with it.”

The Fire TV Stick lets you stream not just Sling TV but also Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Peacock and more. It also gives you access to lots of free content from ad-supported apps like IMDb TV, Tubi, Pluto TV and more.

The Fire TV Stick comes with an Alexa Voice Remote, so it'll be a snap to search for your favorite shows.

And it’s super easy to use too: “Installation was a breeze. Just follow the directions on the TV screen and be patient while it downloads new software updates. I have an older TV not a smart TV so I had to follow the directions instead of letting the TV set it up. After the installation is complete you get a screen with a HUGE amount of apps to add to your Home Screen. The Fire Stick is very easy to maneuver and everything is pretty self explanatory. You do have to have an Amazon Prime account to login before you can set up the channels but once again it's very self explanatory.”

“This Fire Stick is awesome!” said one happy shopper. “I'm a senior on a tight budget. I recently moved and hauled my two big screen TVs that have been sitting for over a year because I could not find a reasonably priced cable service for the amount of TV I watch. Yet I've missed watching TV, and window antennas are no help in the rural area I live in. I get aggravated when I have to watch a movie on my laptop or tablet while there are two TVs sitting there."

"I then found the Fire Stick on Amazon by accident and wondered why I didn't know about it before," they continued. "I never knew there was a device so cheap and easy to use with everything I need. I have a DSL connection and program streams perfectly. I love the simple remote with just the necessary control features in a nutshell. The platform's interface is pretty streamlined and easy to navigate, even with so many selections. Definitely an item you'll get your money's worth out of. I can't imagine not liking this Stick. I would definitely buy another or three!"
