Sometimes we come across deals we think are too good to be true, looking for a clever catch in the fine print. While, in some instances, our instincts are spot-on, other times we’re left full of regret for missing out on the kind of limited-time sale that only comes around once in a while.
Don’t let the latter happen to you. The Official Cyber Monday Mac Bundle Ft. Parallels Pro & Luminar 4 will change the way you use your Mac, and is only available for a limited time. Featuring 12 hugely popular apps, there’s something for everyone, and will ultimately make your Mac run better.
The star of this bundle is definitely Parallels, which normally costs more than this entire bundle does. It’s widely known as the best software for running Windows on a Mac, so you can enjoy the best of both operating systems. If you use one OS for work and another for play (it’s great for gamers!), expect a smooth user experience. It's trusted by over 7 million users, and is a top-15 grossing app in the Mac App Store.
Luminar 4 is another highlight. The world’s first AI-powered photo editor, the software has won numerous awards and was most recently named Outdoor Photographer Editors' Pick EISA Award: Best Photo Software 2019-2020. Photographers of any skill level can easily perfect their portraits, replace dull skies, polish images, and more.
The bundle also includes productivity apps like PDFpenPro (the simplest way to edit a PDF), MindMaster (a professional mind-mapping tool), and BusyCal 3 (an enhanced calendar app), with the added perks of two lifetime subscriptions. One is GooseVPN, which ensures privacy and security as you surf the web – plus, it has 4.7 stars in the App Store and 5 stars on CNET. The other subscription is for uTalk, the language e-learning platform featuring 140+ languages, 30 million users, and 4.3 stars in the App Store.
There’s truly something for every Mac user in this highly rated bundle. To put it in perspective, last year’s bundle raked in more than 100 5-star reviews, and over 17,000 were sold. The clock is ticking, so move fast – this incredible deal is only available for a limited time.

The crypto industry is still reeling from Terra's recent crash. The company's blockchain was temporarily halted earlier this month after the collapse of its cryptocurrency Luna (LUNA) and its stablecoin TerraUSD (UST), which led to almost $45 billion being wiped from the tokens' market caps within a week. Now, many are left wondering what Terra's struggles mean for the broader crypto market. Reeve Collins, CEO of the NFT platform BLOCKv, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell from Davos 2022 to discuss.
China's largest ride-hailing company will no longer be listed on the world's largest stock exchange. Didi shareholders voted on Monday to delist from the New York Stock Exchange, less than a year after launching a $4.4 billion IPO with the most significant U.S. share offering by a Chinese company since Alibaba debuted in 2014. Since going public in June of last year, around $70 billion has been wiped from Didi's market value and shares of the company have dropped nearly 90%. Now, Didi is expected to begin preparations to list in Hong Kong. Kevin T. Carter, founder and Chief Investment Officer of EMQQ Global, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell to discuss.
Ahead of the Meta shareholder meeting, more than five hundred doctors have jointly sent a letter to investors to hold the Facebook parent accountable for the risks its platforms have posed to the public and mental health. Dr. Rob Davidson, a West Michigan ER physician and executive director of the Committee to Protect Health Care, joined Cheddar News to discuss how medical professionals are coming together to highlight the social media giant's spread of misinformation, especially during the pandemic. "We've seen the direct impacts of misinformation and disinformation that spreads like wildfire on the social media platforms," he said. "Our goal with this letter is to try to get the shareholders of Meta to convince leadership that they need to do a better job."
Snap downgraded its earnings and revenue expectations for the second quarter, saying the "macroeconomic environment" has deteriorated faster than the company anticipated. The warning sent shockwaves through the digital ad industry, dragging down a handful of other tech stocks, including Pinterest, Meta, and Twitter. Daniel Cobb, CEO and Chief Strategy Officer of Daniel Brian Advertising, joined Cheddar to discuss the reason behind this warning, and why it's bringing so many social media stocks down.
