I already called out Amazon as the “go-to” place to buy Office 2011 for Mac OS X, but when the official Office for Mac blog spilled the beans on Black Friday deals, I had to take a look. Sure enough, Amazon.com is still the cheapest place to get Office 2011:
| Home & Student 1-pack | Home & Student Family Pack | |||
| Today | “Black Friday” | Today | “Black Friday” | |
| MSRP | $119.99 | $149.99 | ||
| Amazon (US) | $114.99 | $79 | $124.99 | $109 |
| Best Buy | $119.99 | $99 | $149.99 | $129 |
| MacMall (US) | $114.99 | $99 | $124.99 | $129 |
| OfficeforMac.com (US) | $149.99 | $129 | ||
| Apple Stores (US & Canada) | $149.95 | $129 | ||
It’s really surprising that so few retaillers offer any discount at all on this (high-margin) software. You’ve got to get it from somewhere like MacMall or Amazon to save much of anything!
