40% off Pragmatic Programmers books this week
I wish they'd do something better on the ebook and paperback combo. I really think Manning gets this right. If you give me the ebook as a reward for buying directly from you, I'll buy directly from you. Otherwise I'm apt to just get it from Amazon.
That brings them down to Amazon prices, but without free shipping.
Note: this doesn't include The Pragmatic Programmer: From Journeyman to Master
> We wrote this book before we created our publishing business, and we do not publish it. It’s owned and published by Addison-Wesley http://pragprog.com/book/tpp/the-pragmatic-programmer
I had to log in before entering the coupon.
Otherwise I got "Coupon 'agileweek' has expired."
Any recommendations? Book list is at http://pragprog.com/titles
I have a copy of http://pragprog.com/book/rdbcd/behind-closed-doors -- it was very helpful while I was managing people for the first time a while ago.
Picked up the new CoffeeScript book, the Cucumber book, and the New Programmer's Survival Guide. With the coupon, they were just over $10 a pop - in the 'Sure, why not?' price range for me.
To those having problems with the coupon code: I emailed Dave @ prag prog and they have fixed the issue. I was able to purchase the book I wanted with the 40% off. So try again!
"Coupon 'agileweek' has expired."
I think too many people went on a shopping spree and they cancelled the code.
I'm getting coupon code expired.
I ended up grabbing Designed for Use because I recall people on HN being big fans of the writer's blog on the topic, anxious to dig into it.
What did everyone else get?
Can anyone post a list of books they think are must reads?
Anyone else getting "Coupon agileweek" has expired?
Any opinions about http://pragprog.com/book/gwd/data-crunching ?
The design of these books is awful. I wish they would hire a good book designer and revamp the series.

Now I feel like a chump for buying from them a week ago.
Had I known last week, I would've saved myself 40%.
