Why is Will Byers spitting alien eggs into the sink? What happened to Eleven? Is Hop working for the shadow government? Will we ever get justice for Barb?! These are probably just some of the questions that have been bouncing around the Christmas-light-festooned walls of your mind since you finished binge-watching Season 1 of Stranger Things last summer.

Luckily, you don’t have to venture into the Upside-Down to find out the answers. Season 2 of Stranger Things premieres on October 27th, and all 9 episodes will be immediately available to watch for Netflix subscribers. But to those who are mooching Netflix access off a parent or friend, do you really want to risk getting that “incorrect password” error when S2 drops? Isn’t it time time to reach that perennial milestone of adulthood: your very own Netflix account?  

It’s a pretty big step, so before you make that kind of financial commitment, here’s a chance to let fate decide for you. Enter the 5 Years of Netflix Giveaway for your chance to win (you guessed it) five whole years of Netflix access for absolutely zero dollars. That’s a $720 value. Imagine it—your peers are scrambling to see Stranger Things, Narcos, House of Cards, and the rest of the must-see Netflix lineup; they’re begging their friends and family for their Netflix login info; they’re even (dun dun dunnn) illegally downloading episodes. Meanwhile, you’re sitting pretty with all that content on your own private Netflix account for FIVE whole years. That means that if there’s a Stranger Things Season 6, you’ll be watching it guilt-free, fo’ free. 

This dream could be a reality, but you can’t win unless you play the game. Enter now and don’t procrastinate—this giveaway won’t last long.
