BLACK FRIDAY SOFTWARE & PLUG-IN DEALS
24 November 2016
Though it’s a bigger deal in the US, Black Friday sales are still plenty popular here in Aus. And thanks to the buy-online nature of plug-in sales, we’re able to make the most of the enormous markdowns that accompany the Thanksgiving season each year.
Since all of us could use an extra plug-in (or two, or 17), we’ve taken the liberty of compiling a list of where you can find the best deals. And we’ve thrown in some other software specials that are too good to miss. So pull out your wallet, be thankful for what you’ve got, and treat yourself to some more.
