Cyber Monday is a new tradition—the day that online retailers offer deals to match or surpass the deals offered by retailers on Black Friday. I have been keeping tabs on various online stores and ministries looking for deals that will be of particular interest to Christians.
Here are some excellent Cyber Monday deals:
Amazon [2] always has great Black Friday deals. You pretty much need to visit the site to see them all. Start here [3], then go here [4]. (Also, Mark Driscoll book’s Doctrine [5] is on sale in Kindle format for $3.99)
Banner of Truth [6] has some fantastic deals on sets and some individual titles. For example, you can get John Owen’s collected works (16 volumes) for $198, the two-volume biography of Martyn Lloyd-Jones (written by Iain Murray) for $39 or Dallimore’s two-volume life of George Whitefield for $40. The complete Puritan paperback series (45 volumes) can be had for $235. And so on. There is lots more. If you’re having trouble spotting the deals, click on the “Book Catalogue” button at the top of the page and then look to the sidebar.
Centricity Music [7] is offering all of their albums at $4 for downloads or $5 for CDs for the whole weekend. Artists include Andrew Peterson, Downhere, Matt Papa, Me in Motion, and others.
Christian Audio [8] is offering hourly deals on audio books. Your best bet is to track them on Twitter [9] throughout the day.
Crossway [10] has a long list of deals today only. They include Bibles, reference works and books.
Cruciform Press [11] is offering bundle deals. You can buy bundles of ebooks at $25 for 7 books (there are 2 bundles, each with 7 different books). If you prefer printed books, you can get subscriber pricing rather than regular pricing if you buy 5 or more titles.
Cumberland Valley Bible Book Service [12] will be offering an across-the-board 10% discount. This will take many of their prices below what you’ll find anywhere else.
Desiring God [13] has several of John Piper’s books marked down to $5: Filling Up the Afflictions of Christ; Spectacular Sins; Think: The Life of the Mind and the Love of God; Contending for Our All; The Power of Words and the Wonder of God; What Jesus Demands from the World. The offer ends at 3 PM CST.
Eternal Perspectives Ministries [14] has some of Randy Alcorn’s bestselling books on sale. Included are Courageous at $6.99, Heaven at $9.99, The Treasure Principle at $3.99 and The Resolution for Men at $6.99. You’ll need to use the code blackfriday and will need to ship to the continental US.
Family Christian Stores [15] has a long list of items on sale both in-store and online. You can browse their brochure [16] to find particulars (check pages 4-11).
The Good Book Company [17] is selling their popular Good Book Guides [18] at 50% off. Also, many of their bestselling paperback books, along with their books for teens, are 50% off.
Grace and Truth Books [19] will have several substantial bargains. They include this 2-book edition of Pilgrim’s Progress and The Holy War [20]; Reformation Study Bible [21]; The Valley of Vision [22].
Indelible Grace [23] has a bunch of deals on their music: Matthew Smith CDs for $7.99, a 3-pack of Even When My Heart Is Breaking for $9.99, or all 6 Indelible Grace studio CDs for $64.99, plus other great deals.
Lifeway [24] has quite a long list of items for sale in-store and online.
Logos [25] is selling 3 new resource bundles as well as 12 great commentaries and standalone references at good discounts. Base packages are discounted 15%. They are also giving away $250 dollars of Logos credit to 5 winners.
Monergism Books [26] has a series of coupon codes that will drive down prices on all of their products. Use coupon code EXTRA5 to take 5% off your order. If you spend more than $75, use coupon code EXTRA10 to take an extra 10% off your purchase and to get free shipping. If you spend $350 or more, use coupon code EXTRA15 to get an extra 15% off your order. These offers will be valid from Friday until Monday.
