I thought I was finally free from stealth-focused Skyrim builds, then someone modded in the ability to hide in bushes
The Super Bowl is one of the most-watched live events every single year. Some people watch because they love football while others only care about the halftime show. There's also that not-so-small minority only really hoping to see some hilarious Super Bowl ads. Whatever your reason for wanting to tune in to the big game this year, you still need to find a way to actually do so.
Super Bowl LX takes place on Sunday, February 8 at 3:30 p.m. PT and will air live on NBC and Peacock. The easiest way to watch for free is to just tune into your local NBC channel, but since modern smart TVs never seem to have built-in antennas anymore, that may prove a bit difficult. Fortunately, there are a few slightly more complicated ways to watch for free in 2026.
The most straightforward way to watch the Super Bowl online for free is to take advantage of a live TV streaming service free trial. Live TV streaming services are essentially an online version of cable and are actually quite expensive, but some of them offer a free trial for new subscribers.
The first service I'd recommend here is Hulu + Live TV. It's $89.99 per month for a subscription, which includes live channels as well as a Disney+ and ESPN Select subscription. Thankfully it also comes with a three-day free trial for new subscribers, so you don't have to pay any of that if you don't want to. This is generally considered one of the best overall streaming services for sports and a fairly straightforward way to get Super Bowl streaming access quickly.
It may seem strange to look toward Walmart for a way to watch the Super Bowl, but that's just the world we're living in. Walmart+ includes a 30 day free trial for new subscribers, which comes with a Peacock Premium subscription. Considering Peacock does not have a free trial of its own, this is the best way to get access to the service at no cost. Best of all, if you forget to cancel before those 30 days are up, a monthly subscription will only cost you $12.95. It's only slightly more expensive than a Peacock Premium subscription on its own and includes a bunch of added benefits.
If you've already used the Hulu + Live TV free trial trick on some other event, there's also five-day DirecTV free trial available to you. It's similar to what Hulu offers, but with ESPN Unlimited instead of Select and no Disney+ subscription. The slightly longer free trial here is nice, but the monthly cost of the service after that trial ends is significantly more expensive than similar competitors. If you're just planning on cancelling before those five days are up, though, the pricing structure doesn't really matter.
The free trial options I've listed here are all great for streaming the Super Bowl this weekend, but they are a fairly roundabout way to get access to something that should already be free to you. NBC is currently being broadcast over the air right this second and all you need is a simple piece of tech to access it. Even if it's too late for you to buy a TV antenna to watch this game, I implore you to please just get one for the future. Streaming services have become overly complicated and you could easily solve this particular problem forever by just spending a little bit of money right now.
It can be hard to find the right gift for your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day. If your significant other enjoys fun and satisfying projects, you might want to get them a LEGO set. You can even build it together. Here are some excellent LEGO choices for Valentine’s Day 2026.
Here's a run-down of every set we've picked out for Valentine's Day. You can click through in the catalog above to check out the retailer listings, or read on to find more info about each one.
If we’re looking for LEGO Valentine’s Day gifts, the obvious one is right here: the Bouquet of Roses. It’s a dozen brick-built roses, complete with leaf green stems (no thorns, though!) and four sprigs of baby’s breath. You can put them in a vase and leave them out all of February, or all year round.
Tweety Bird is a beloved animated character from Looney Tunes. Cupid is the god of love. Put them together, and you get this Sweetheart Tweety Bird, who comes with wings and a bow and heart-arrow, plus a tiny bouquet of flowers with a heart. The whole model sits on a fluffy-looking base of clouds. Now that’s romantic.
I love LEGO Art sets because they let you re-create famous works of art in a smaller brick format. This one in particular is a buildable model of Robert Indiana’s famous pop art LOVE sculpture.
The latest addition to the sizable (and growing) LEGO botanicals collection, this cluster of flowers isn’t meant to be displayed in a vase or on a table. It’s made to be hung on a wall. It has pastel colors and a variety of flower types, making it a fine V-day present.
If you can’t justify the price of the Bouquet of Roses above, perhaps you might be interested in a set of two roses? They’re similar to the ones in the bouquet, but they have more leaves on then, and the design of the petals is different. Plus, this set is currently on sale at Amazon for 33% off.
Red roses are the more traditional ones to give for Valentine’s Day, but some people prefer pink. So LEGO has a set of 12 of those as well. Like the red ones, they come in various stages of life, so they don’t all look the same when built.
If the roses look a little too same-y to you, perhaps you’d be interested in this Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet. It includes two pink roses, but also a bunch of other flower types, including orchids, ranunculus and a dahlia. This one has more color and texture, which is sorta cool.
IGN LEGO expert Kevin Wong had the chance to build this set last year when it first came out. You can check out his experience with the set in the slideshow below:
Finally, some people like daisies more than roses. If that’s your boo’s preference, you can get this set instead. Or, if that doesn’t work, you can check out our picks for the LEGO botanicals collection for a whole lot more options.
