Still marveling over that glorious mess of gift wrap, old photo albums, full Tupperware containers and other signs of a successful family holiday celebration? Well, it’s time to get your act together, because a new year is on the horizon.

Amazon’s giving you no excuses. They’ve knocked $50 off the most popular software package on the market and thrown in a free $50 Amazon gift card to sweeten the deal. Until midnight, a one-year subscription to Microsoft 360 Family for just $100. Essentially, it’s the entire Microsoft Office suite for up to six users on up to five devices at once!

$100 $150 at Amazon

Microsoft 365 Family is the same Microsoft Office 365 Home you’ve come to know and love, but it was recently given a new name. It still has all the crucial applications you need to keep your entire family’s affairs in order, like Word, Excel and PowerPoint. But this deal also includes a unique safety feature: 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage for each person on the subscription.

OneDrive lets your family members securely store all their important documents, files and photos — and share them across all their devices.

Microsoft 365 Family: A one-year subscription for up to 6 people, plus a free $50 gift card — today only!

Being productive in 2021 is key, and this software suite certainly gives you the tools. But we all know a new year is all about organization, too. Microsoft 365 Family has up to six people covered on that front, too. Each user also has access to Outlook, where they’ll get email, a calendar, an address book for contacts and a place to create to-do lists. Everything is unbelievably easy to use, even for the least tech-savvy member of your household.

If safety is your concern, then this is the software subscription for you. Not only does Microsoft have advanced security features to keep everything private, backed up and protected, but it also offers a Family Safety mobile app. This genius feature includes screen time limits, content filters, GPS-powered location sharing and driver safety insights, so you can keep track of loved ones on the road.

Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, secure cloud storage, an app loaded with safety features for up to six people and a $50 Amazon gift card? That’s like getting a one-year Microsoft 365 Family subscription for just $50 — and it’s typically $10 a month, so this is money well-spent. Plenty of five-star reviewers agree.

“For $50 and always having the latest version of 365 for 6 people and multiple devices for each and with 1 TB of OneDrive of storage, this is a bargain,” wrote one.

“We moved to Office 365 a few years ago because we wanted cloud back-up service & it turned out that Microsoft's cloud back-up was VERY price competitive,” added another. “In fact, if you make good use of OneDrive, it may well be a better deal for an individual to purchase the "Family" version of MS 365 over the individual version — simply for the added cloud storage space.”

This Microsoft 365 Family subscription with a free Amazon gift card is a one-day deal, so the time to set the tone for a productive, organized, safe and happy new year for your family is now. Get all this peace of mind at a best-of-the-year discount. We can’t control how the year will turn out, but we can sure set ourselves up for success.

  • Curious fisherman drops camera to see the fish he can't catch

    When the fish were not biting, these fishermen believed it was because there were none to be caught. But this father decided to attach a camera to his hook to see if his sons' claims were correct. When he looked at the footage, he was surprised to see not only a bunch of fish, but that he nearly bonked one on the head when the camera hit the bottom. This father and his sons are fishing in a remote lake in Ontario, Canada. They have chosen a spot in front of a beaver lodge, usually a sure place to catch fish. But as the fish are reluctant to bite, it became difficult to believe that they were there. The camera shows that it was skill, not a lack of fish that made them go back to the cottage empty-handed. The bottom of a lake is a mysterious place and a camera on a string reveals that there is more going on than meets the eye. These fish were actually more curious about the camera than they were about the bait being presented. The lesson in this might be that persistence will pay off eventually and that they shouldn't give up, thinking that nothing lurks below.
