If I remember correctly from last year, the discount should be officially announced (and should start) in 10 days or so. It’s usually $100 off of the lifetime. So $200 instead of $300.
So, I suggest you to give WK a try! By level 9, you’ll have already learned 309 kanji and 908 words For level 16, it’s 556 kanji and 1735 words Level 9 is around 2 months, if you go for a 10 day/level speed.

For the level that you seem to be at, I’d definitely recommend a combo between Wanikani, Kitsun and Bunpro. Once you get a little more comfortable kanji/vocab/grammar wise, you should give FloFlo a try (sorry, I’m running out of time, can’t really do a more detailed explanation xD - just check the links I just shared with you).
Personally, I’m doing extremely well. Learning around new 35 words/day and now slowly trying to get into the daily habit of reading books/watching media in Japanese (the later with JP subs). I’ve been chatting with natives pretty much everyday on Hellotalk (app to find language partners - check it out), but I feel like I need to broaden my exposure a little bit more. Once I get that sorted out, I’ll go back to study grammar (N2) and I’ll restart with iTalki lessons (mainly for speaking practice - check that website out as well).
And… I think… that’s it
