am waiting for the safari books online subscription deal. Last yr they had a 50% price drop.

On Twitter: "sorry, no big sale this year. Contact us via http://bit.ly/1aK0wMg and we are happy to talk about available discounts." - https://twitter.com/safari/status/798558536905224192

Top discounts by product category: http://blackfriday.semantics3.com/dashboards/RJ7EP446XUIOLEU... Might aid the discount hunting process, if not the decision making process.
