Adobe discounts Photoshop & Premiere Elements 11 $30 off for Father’s Day (+ Giveaway)

Site default logo image

Adobe spent some time with us at recent workshop showing off features of Photoshop and Premiere Elements 11 perfect for Dads that might not need access to the company’s full Creative Cloud suite of products. On top of the super easy-to-use UI, Adobe made a point of noting integration with Adobe Revel, allowing anyone to easily sync and edit photos across devices such as iPhone, iPad, and on the web. With Father’s Day right around the corner, Adobe is offering huge discounts on the products and we thought it was a perfect opportunity to team up with the company to giveaway copies of the software to 9to5Toys readers.

Photoshop Elements 11 and Premiere Elements 11 are also great to create gifts for dad: create a photo book, calendar or personalized card using built-in templates or develop a montage of warm moments complete with a CD cover to slide into a blank jewel case.

While we’re giving away the bundle to one lucky 9to5 reader, Adobe is also offering some big discounts on the products with $30 off the standalone apps and bundle using coupon code SUMMER30″:

Father’s Day Pricing: Valid June 2 through June 15
