A BRAND NEW PRICE: As of May 11, My Best Buy Plus memberships are now just $29.99 per year instead of $49.99 per year. That's a $20 permanent price drop. Meanwhile, My Best Buy Total memberships are jumping to $199.99 per year starting June 4, a $20 increase from their previous cost.
It's pretty rare in 2026 to see something get cheaper, particularly a subscription. While other subscriptions are steadily hiking costs, Best Buy quietly just dropped the price of its My Best Buy Plus membership permanently.
The tech retail giant announced a reward points system for its paid subscribers last week along with a new pricing structure for its Plus and Total subscriptions. Typically $49.99 per year, the more affordable Plus membership is now just $29.99. The permanent $20 price drop appears to already be reflected on the Best Buy website, so new subscribers will only pay $29.99 and existing subscribers will see the new pricing go into effect on their next bill. That's only a mere $2.50 per month when you do the math.
Plus subscriptions include free two-day shipping, early access to sales, events, and products, an extended 60-day return window, exclusive member pricing, and now 1% back in rewards on eligible purchases (6% with the My Best Buy Credit Card). For instance, Plus and Total members can take an extra $100 off the LG 77-inch B5 OLED 4K TV or get two free months of Apple TV and LinkedIn Premium.
My Best Buy Total subscriptions, on the other hand, are getting a $20 price hike. Currently $179.99 per year, prices will jump to $199.99 per year starting June 4. If you were thinking about signing up, we recommend locking in your membership before June 4 to save $20.
