:: PAYING too much for a Sky subscription because you only watch some of the platform’s exclusive content? Check out this half-price deal on Now TV boxes for £19.95 at Argos instead. Included is a voucher for six months’ viewing of the Entertainment pack which includes Sky 1, Fox and Sky Atlantic (and on-demand box sets from those channels), to name but a few.

You must set up a direct debit to register but you won’t be charged a monthly subscription if, after six months, you cancel or apply another voucher to your account.

Don’t fancy attaching yet another box to your telly? You can watch Now TV via some consoles and it’s even built into some smart flat-screens.
