This deal is without a doubt one of the best Microsoft Office deals we’ve seen all year. Microsoft Office is the industry standard when it comes to productivity software and that has been the case for decades. As part of this software package, you’ll gain lifetime access to the essential Microsoft Office classics: Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint. The one-time purchase comes with one license that can be installed on one device, but can be transferred to another device should you decide to upgrade your computer in the future.

With the Microsoft Office 2021 Home & Student Edition, you will be able to do all of your word processing tasks with Microsoft Word, from preparing papers to creating labels, signs, and brochures. Microsoft Excel creates spreadsheets and organizes data like no other program on the market, and Microsoft PowerPoint gives you the ability to create stunning visual presentations right from your laptop. This is the collection of programs that every student absolutely needs and will use for many years to come.

For most of the year, Microsoft Office 2021 Home & Student Edition is $150, but right now you can save $50, or 33%, on this software staple and own a lifetime license for only $100. Microsoft Office is the standard across universities, businesses, and homes all around the world, and this is your chance to get a license that will last a lifetime at a truly unbeatable price.

Every day Best Buy has a "Deal of the Day," which is exactly what it says on the tin, but they also have bonus deals of the day if you look harder. And both the Microsoft Surface Slim Pen 2 and the Surface Pro Flex Keyboard are included in these bonus deals today. You can save $26 on the pen (taking it from $130 to $104) or $70 on the keyboard (taking it from $350 to $280) if you take advantage of these deals before 1:00 a.m. ET. That's a combined savings of $96. Tap the button below (and scroll down) to see today's bonus deals or keep reading to see how these accessories are a big bonus for your tablet.
