Until the 8th October, Sitepoint are offereing 5 books for the price of one (http://sale.sitepoint.com/) in PDF format. This might be a good opportunity to grab some of the books on our reading list at a bargain price ($29.95, around £18.75).

I recommend:
Sexy Web Design (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/sexy1/?SID=af080c27d356a93b732fa020311e70ef)
The Principles of Beautiful Web Design (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/design1/?SID=af080c27d356a93b732fa020311e70ef)
Build Your Own Web Site The Right Way Using HTML & CSS, 2nd Edition (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/html2/?SID=af080c27d356a93b732fa020311e70ef)
The Art & Science Of CSS (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/cssdesign1/?SID=af080c27d356a93b732fa020311e70ef)
Simply JavaScript (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/javascript1/?SID=af080c27d356a93b732fa020311e70ef)

but the choice is entirely yours.

Sadly I think this has now expired. Just tried and it says expiry date 30 September. No discount given at checkout :-(

This just in from Sitepoint:


Apologies for emailing you so soon after announcing our 5-for-1 sale
extension, but it's come to my attention that there was an issue
with our shopping cart.

The bug on this cart is now fixed, and our customer support team
are working frantically to respond to everyone. I also need to point
out that the end date of the offer is the 8th of October, not
September as stated in the original email.

If you tried to take advantage of this deal yesterday and were
unable to, we're really sorry. We do take mistakes very seriously,
so as punishment, Shayne, our Marketing Manager, is being forced to
eat an entire jar of Vegemite.*

If he survives, I'm sure he won't let something like this happen
again.

Here's that link again to buy your 5 PDF ebooks for $29.95:

I bought 5. They are excellent. Only drawback is that I don't like reading them on a screen. But for the price I can put up with that.

HI, yes i see that the offer has now ended.

Hi Andrea, yes I'm afraid you just missed the offer but you can still buy the PDFs or paper versions from Sitepoint. Not quite so attractive now though.
