TL;DR: Replace Microsoft 365 with a lifetime of Microsoft Office for Mac for only $39.99. Sale ends January 12 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
Not everything has to be a subscription. Sure, you might need Microsoft apps like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for work or school, but Microsoft 365 isn't the only way to get them. It's definitely not the cheapest way in the long term.
If you want to ditch the subscription, there's a sale going for a lifetime license to Microsoft Office Home and Business for Mac, and it's only $39.99 (reg. $229).
This license comes with:
Word
Excel
PowerPoint
Outlook
OneNote
Teams Classic
You can install each app on one computer one time. Hardware requirements are pretty minimal, but make sure it's a computer you're going to have for a while. That ancient beater laptop still running Windows 7 might not be the best idea, and not just because this version of Office only supports Windows 10 and Windows 11.
So why are these apps so cheap? Because it's the 2019 version (and the sale helps, too). That's not really a bad thing, though. You could still write resumes in Word in 2019 and Excel was still the pillar holding the entire professional world on its back a few years ago.
A lifetime license for Microsoft Office Home and Business 2019 is just $39.99 until January 12 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
