Why go out drinking on a Friday when you can just free-stream Creative LIVE ON AIR classes starting at 12pm ET? Today’s round includes vlogging, Illustrator CC, Screenwriting and Etsy among others.

Today is the last day of the B&H Photo MEGA deal ZONE running until Thursday at 11:59pm ET or earlier if sold out. we “lost” a few more items to sell-out, now we have 1493 available for purchasing.

Some different ways to browse all these offerings:

+ sorted by BEST SELLERS

+ sorted by Biggest Percentage DISCOUNT

+ sorted by LOWEST PRICE

MEANwhile starting on Thursday at 12pm ET at Creative LIVE ON AiR we have “speedlights in the studio” with Marc Wallace, Adobe InDesign, EQ (audio), and repeat sales.

Day 2 of the B&H Photo MEGA DEAL zone is here and we “lost” nine items from yesterday, we now have 1506 participating. “Lost” as in they have sold-out an became un-orderable.

As a brief recap of yesterday’s post, here are some pre-filled views into the 1506 offerings:

+ sorted by BEST SELLERS

+ sorted by Biggest Percentage DISCOUNT

+ sorted by LOWEST PRICE

MEANwhile starting on Wednesday at 12pm ET at Creative LIVE ON AiR there’s a “using layers in photoshop” class along with a type design in photoshop, embroidery, becoming a better presenter (not a bitter presenter!) and such.

Yes dear readers, we have an all-star game! The B&H Photo MEGA DEAL zone is back! This is like an all-star game of previous daily deals. As of the time of writing 1515 of previous daily deals are running, in progress and in parallel. You can buy as many as you like! If you missed any good deals previously on, this is your second chance!

These typically run in 24 hour increments, just like the daily deals. If I recall correctly these typically start at Tuesday early AM and run until Thursday at 11:59pm ET.

You can also sort the 1515 offerings in different ways, for example by BEST SELLERS where we see that Sandisk memory cards lead the way, there’s a $400 Lenovo 16″ laptop in the top 10, and the first camera-lens item is the Vello Auto Lens Adapter for Canon EF/EF-S lenses to Canon RF bodies for $43.

Another way to look at them is sorted by the Biggest Percentage DISCOUNT. The leader of this pack went from $30 down to $2. No, it’s not a cleaning cloth 🙂 It’s Sunpak Action Camera Accessory kit with head mount, suction cup mount and tripod mount. That’s 67c per accessory 😉

Another practical way of looking at them is sorted by LOWEST PRICE where we find a $2 Joby Action Grip, a 5pk of Vivitar lens cleaning kits for $5 (that’s $1 per kit), $5 is also the price of a 64GB Kingston USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 flash drive. Or $7 for the 128GB variant (on the same root listing).

I could go on for hours and hours but you get the feel for it. There are many different ways you can sort and filter the 1515 options of the MEGA DEAL zone. So much so, you have yourself a new hobby for the next three days at the office 😉

AND IF you tire of deal-hunting, how about some free e-learnings? Starting on Tuesday at 12pm ET at Creative LIVE ON AiR is a “crafts photography fundamentals” class and also a “quick home photo sessions” class.
