Adobe Coupon: Extra 80% off select education software Adobe cuts an extra 80% off select education software via coupon code "SAVE80EDU".

Shipping starts at $5.95, or choose download delivery to avoid shipping charges. Deal ends March 3.
I bought a Photoshop for $49 shipped. And also bought a web design suit for $95 shipped.

BTW, the coupon is a little tricky. I input SAVE80EDU , then the Apply button not work. So I input SAVE80EDU00 , then the Apply button appears to be workable, then I delete the 00, and make it to SAVE80EDU , then click Apply button. Then it works.
Good luck guys.

Copy/paste coupon didn't work, but typing it in worked. Great deal! Thank you.

Don't you have to provide proof you're a student/teacher?

my wife has a college student ID. You can just scan and send to them for verification. The order will only go through if the Student/teacher verification process went through.
Products ordered: Qty Product 1 Adobe Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (Windows,English) Total purchase amount: US $49.75
Products ordered: Qty Product 1 Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Web Premium Student and Teacher Edition (Windows,English) Total purchase amount: US $104.12
I am in California, so added some tax.

Yeah that you have to. However if you are a student, Masters Collection for $180 is a steal.
Ken's trick worked for me. Master Collection for $180 is truly an unbelievable deal.

GOT IT! Masters Collection for $180 IS a steal! I just couldn't afford the previous "discount" which was was way to steep. I actually buy all of my software & look for deals like this when I am taking grad. classes. I encourage anyone who does not have a legit version to buy it at this price. I think we should reward companies for offering deals to students & teachers. We take the software preferences into our work places they buy for the whole office/studio.

Design Standard for $59 is the sweet spot. Loses the 3D and motion tools of Extended version of Photoshop, but the standard is more than sufficient for most everything else. Comes with Acrobat, Illustrator, and Indesign.

Just curious - why did you order PS if you were also buying Web Premium which includes PS?

Companies sometimes do this to clear inventory, get you using their product,etc right before they release a new version.
I suspect CS6 is right around the corner. I know they said "sometime in 2012"

Is there any difference between "Education" version and "Regular" version? When you install the "Education" version, do you need to provide same information as you placed the order? Or They are just identical, but just price difference? Thanks...

Best post ever! Looks like I need to cancel my PS/Premier Elements order from Amazon Gold Box since I'll pick up a Master Edition!
Man, that Adobe site is totally messed up. Chrome goes all wiggy, and I accidentally chose "student" instead of "parent of student" and the cookie won't let me check out no matter what, even when I log in with a different ID. In IE, the cart fills and empties seemingly by magic, and would only allow the coupon to be applied to a single item, but now it wont let me checkout a second time. Luckily, though the first order went through (but didn't verify), I got an email confirmation which had a link for verification docs to be sent.
I know CS6 (asd PS6) is just around the corner, but I can live with 2 year old software in this case.

If it lets you complete the order, great. If not, clear your cookies & cache, then resubmit. It may look like it fails and kick you back to the home page. Check your email...you'll get a pre-confirmation with your order number, then go to https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/support/index.cfm?event=opencscase... and enter your order ID and upload your eligibility docs.

That site has given me trouble before. After trying to resubmit and backtrack several times, I finally lost the page. I ended up clicking the customer support link on my Adobe order confirmation email and submitted my validation there.

Seriously, this. A deal like this is better than crossing your fingers on a usenet or torrent. You get full support plus bug fixes.

A great find OP!
I've been using Adobe apps professionally for a long time. The first one was Pagemaker (precursor to InDesign) which used a runtime version of Windows 1.0 if that gives you an idea. This was a few years before scalable type was introduced and almost everything else was being run from the DOS command line.
There's a steep learning curve for Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator, the apps I know best, but it's well worth the time and effort if you're interested in graphic design, page layout, photo manipulation, etc.
I ordered the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium as a parent with a student in college which will update the apps I have at home.
Maybe we'll see some great designs for the next Fatwallet Black Friday Tee shirt competition thanks to Adobe!

Yep. I had to open a support case too. It looks like they take 1-3 business days to close the support case and complete the order.

The online verification website appears to be down.
EDIT:
Finally got through. How long did the verification take using an email address?

I successfully used the SAVE80EDU code at about 7:20 CST tonight, but I've been unable to submit proof since then. Chatted with a CS and they said that they were aware of a "broken link" with identit-e and were working to resolve. He said to try again in an hour, and it still isn't working. Hopefully it'll open up soon.
