If your PlayStation Plus subscription has run out, we've got good news. This coming Black Friday is a good opportunity to renew your membership at a massive discount.
Historically, Black Friday is when PS Plus memberships drop to their lowest price for the year. This year isn't different. Sony has already confirmed that PS Plus subscriptions will get a massive discount this Friday. The only question now is, how much lower are prices going to get?
First things first though, definitely avoid buying those scrapped PS Plus subscription cards. Some third-party retailers might still carry a code or two but they no longer stack. The worst case scenario is that they won't work or you won't get your money's worth. In either case, you'll want to get a gift card that covers the specific amount you'll need for a year's worth of your preferred PS Plus tier. On a normal day, a year of PS Plus Essential costs $59.99 while Extra and Premium cost $99.99 and $119.99, respectively.
As for stacking (OG PS Plus members know this), don't do it. Sony has made that impossible with the new tiered subscriptions. The good news is that you can extend your active PS Plus membership, which works pretty much like stacking.
