A lifetime license for Microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Windows is being advertised for $29.97, down from a listed $219.99, according to Mashable Deals.
The offer, sold through StackSocial links in the promotion, is scheduled to run until July 19 at 11:59 p.m. PT. Mashable Deals says no coupon is needed and notes that StackSocial prices can change.
The deal is for a one-time download on one Windows PC, according to the listing. Mashable Deals says buyers receive access to Microsoft Office Professional 2021 apps including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and more.
The promoted savings come to $190.02 off the listed retail price. Mashable Deals describes the discount as 86% below the usual retail price and positions the license as an alternative to Microsoft 365 subscription payments.
What the deal includes
According to Mashable Deals, the license is aimed at users who want the standard Office toolkit for everyday work and personal tasks, including writing documents, working with spreadsheets, building presentations, handling email and managing databases.
