TL;DR: Get Microsoft Office for life on sale for only $39.97 (reg. $229). Sale ends Oct. 19 at 11:59 p.m. PT.


Have you seen how much Microsoft 365 costs now? And who can say when the next price hike will come.

Software subscriptions are a subtle way of massively overpaying for apps you used to be able to own. If you don’t want to pay $99.99 per year, every year just to use basic Microsoft Office apps, it might be time to switch to a more budget-friendly option, even if it costs a little more up-front. Right now, it’s only $39.97 to get Microsoft Office 2019 for life. That’s marked down from $229, but that price won’t last much longer.

This version of Microsoft Office comes with:

  • Word

  • Excel

  • PowerPoint

  • Outlook

  • OneNote

  • Teams Classic

You can install each of these apps on one computer for life. After that, there are no subscription fees or hidden payments to worry about. You also don’t have to deal with a sudden update from Microsoft completely changing how you work (or those frustrating AI tools constantly interrupting you).

This version of Microsoft Office is a little older than the apps you get from Microsoft 365, but they still work great for everything from school to the office, and you don’t need internet to use them.

This license is for 1 Mac, but Windows licenses are also still available for now.

If you want to stop paying for Microsoft apps every month, then get a Microsoft Office 2019 lifetime license while it’s on sale for only $39.97.

Sale ends Oct. 19 at 11:59 p.m. PT. No coupon needed.
