Two Free Weeks of SiriusXM Radio Until June 3
If you're tired of the basic radio stations around the city, SiriusXM has a pretty good two-week freebie you'll want to check out. Starting now, and running until June 3, you can enjoy two free weeks of SiriusXM satellite radio by simply pressing the AUX, XM or SAT button on your vehicle -- that's all there is to it! There are close to 60 free channels including talk radio, top 40s, classic hits, sports talk and more. If by chance you want to subscribe, Sirius is running some monthly and yearly discounts as well which include:
- $2.49/month for the first 3-months using the coupon code SPRING24
- $79.96/year for your first year using the coupon code SPRING79
To put things into perspective, normally, you're looking to pay around $175 for a year or about $16 per month which means now is the time to take advantage of the promotions if you enjoy the channels listed. The promotion is on until June 3 so we'd definitely take the time to listen to the channels first before making a decision.
