What Kind of satellite TV deal are you looking for? HD deals? DVR deals? Free movie channel or reduced cost programming deals? Maybe you are looking for Dish Network deals, or DirecTV deals in general. Whatever the case, if you're reading this, you are shopping for satellite TV service and promotions. Did you know there are satellite TV retailers that will give you extra freebies in addition to standard satellite TV offers? It's true, and Dish Network retailers are much more likely to offer an extra incentive compared to DirecTV dealers.

As of February 2007, the best Dish Network deal is four rooms of satellite TV service starting at 19.99 a month for over 100 channels. The basic equipment included in this package is a free satellite dish, and two free satellite receivers. You'll also have the option to upgrade to DVR or HDTV service, in which case you'll get your DVR or HD receiver free of charge. Not bad for 20 bucks huh? Plus you'll get some free movie channels for a period of time, and some Dish Network retailers offer bonus free gifts!

The new promotional offer this year for DirecTV includes a new programming line up called CHOICE Package, The PLUS Package, The PLUS HD Package, and The PREMIER Package ranging from 49.99 to 65.99 a month. The basic plus package gets you over 185 channels including free HBO and Showtime for three months and, the DVR service is free. You can upgrade to DVR or HDTV service and get a free DVR or HD equipment upgrade. The Plus Choice package is the same price as the 140 channel Choice Package for 1 year with a DirecTV service agreement.

If you are looking for something in addition to the basic promotional offers from Dish Network or DirecTV, you just have to keep an eye out for extras that are not mentioned here from different retailers. Some popular freebies offered by Dish Network retailers are iPods, home theater systems, cash back, airline tickets, LCD monitors, Mp3 players, portable DVD players, and a whole plethora of free goodies. DirecTV is a bit more stingy with the freebies, and as of now, you'll have a hard time finding DirecTV retailers giving up any extras.

Freebies are great, but when it comes down to it people want a good deal in programming since that is what they will have to live with. As shown in the prices above, Dish Network is considerably lower priced when it comes to low end programming. DirecTV's most competitive low end package is more than double the price of Dish Network, and doesn't offer that many more channels. I think with this in mind, the best DirecTV deal is in their higher end packages which are a bit more competitive with Dish Network's high end programming.
