The dating scene can be brutal. If you aren't out for a string of casual encounters or brief situationships, it can be hard to find the person you want to spend the rest of your life with. Dating apps can simplify things a bit, but sometimes hookup culture gets in the way of finding something more serious.

If you want to give an old-fashioned dating site a try, eharmony is routinely at the top of our list for the best dating apps for those looking for something with a little more substance than a fling.

For a short time, you can save 60% off on all of eharmony's Premium Memberships — a super limited deal that we may not see for a bit. Choose from the following:

• 6-month Premium Light plan: $26.36, down from $65.90 per month

• 12-month Premium Plus plan: $18.36, down from $45.90 per month

• 24-month Premium Extra plan: $14.36, down from $35.90 per month

The deal runs through Oct. 29, so snag some savings while you can.

Each membership tier comes with different perks, from unlimited photos and messaging to the ability to do distance searches and see who's been viewing your profile. But is investing in a premium plan even worth it? Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart thinks so, calling the free eharmony option "pretty worthless" in her review of the site.

The service was established on the slow and steady build-up of finding how you and your potential matches align. It may take a while to answer all of the personality questions and create a useful profile to meet your match, but Stodart called eharmony your "best bet" if you're looking for a serious relationship. So if you're looking to date someone long-term, and your mind is set on marriage, eharmony may very well be a good investment, especially at this price.
