You’re probably familiar with the Microsoft Office suite of apps through either work or school, but the software is incredibly useful to have on your home PC too. Amazon is offering a neat way to make it cheaper to do just that with a one-day deal on a year of Microsoft 365 Family. Regularly $100 for 12 months directly at Microsoft, Amazon is throwing in a free $50 Amazon gift card with the purchase today which is as good as a $50 discount if you shop at Amazon regularly.
This family plan for Microsoft 365 (the new name for Office) includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and more for up to six people. You’ll also get 1TB of OneDrive cloud storage per person for backing up your photos and files. Microsoft Defender and Family Safety apps are also included to help keep your family’s devices secure and safe for everyone to use.
It’s worth noting that the Microsoft 365 Family subscription will be set to auto-renew at the regular price of $100 after your first year is up unless you opt to cancel it before then. The $50 Amazon gift card will be sent to you by mail.
If you’d prefer a direct discount on your subscription instead, you can currently save $10 on the Microsoft 365 Family plan without the included gift card. Alternatively, Microsoft 365 Personal is cheaper at $70 if you buy it for just one user, or you can get an Office 2021 license for just $40 right now if you only want the essential apps.
