Hi SMUGERs!
I just got this from Adam Engst at TidBITS for all who are interested:
~~~~~
Happy holidays to all!
To celebrate the holiday season, we're offering all our ebooks - Take
Control titles and the Macworld Superguides - at 50% off. This is a
great opportunity to stock up on tech reading for the new year or
update your collection of Take Control ebooks quickly and efficiently
with a single trip through the cart.
To get started, use the coupon-embedded link below to browse our
catalog page and jump off to any of the other pages on the Take
Control site. The coupon code - CPN91211HOL - should appear
automatically on the first screen of the cart. (The sale is only for
ebooks, not our at-cost print-on-demand versions. Bits are easy,
atoms are hard.)

50% off is the best deal ever for books. Like EVER.
Note that the sale is through December 31, 2009. When it strikes midnight on New Year's Eve, the sale turns into a pumpkin. So buy now now now now now, now. ;-)
Example suggestion:
Macworld Total Snow Leopard Superguide
104 pages, usually $12.95. Now 50% off at $6.48.
--> Read this ebook to learn the answers to questions such as:
- How do I streamline editing an iCal event?
- How do I set the default Spotlight search location?
- How do I add comments and editing marks to a PDF in Preview.
- In Safari, how do I open a typed URL in a new tab?
- What's the best way to read RSS Feeds in Safari?
- How do I set up and work with tabs in Terminal?
- How do I send a video from QuickTime X to iTunes, MobileMe, or YouTube?
- How do I store my passwords under a more complex password than my easy-to-type login password?
- What are some whizzy ways to access my files? (hint: Snow Leopard introduced some fun changes to Exposé, the Dock, and Spaces)
Most of the Take Control books are $10 regular price. $5 on sale!
Personally, I'm waiting to buy until after I count up my Christmas loot. ;-)
