@VolvoGirl do you know if they ever have sales before Dec 31? My purpose for buying it early is to estimate my taxes so I can make last minute decisions like IRA withdrawals or conversions that have to by done before Dec 31. This year I bought it early at full price, then was annoyed when later I got a dozen emails offering it at a lower price. If I'm aware to look for sales before the end of this year I might get lucky and buy it cheaper.
