Usually, when buying courses from The Great Courses, the least expensive option is to go for the audio download, then video downloads are usually the next least expensive. Finally, if you order a CD or DVD, the prices are about half again more than the audio or video downloads. Something special that they are doing with this promotion is offering
all of the formats at the same price of $9.95. There is a shipping charge for the physical (CD and DVD) formats.
If you're familiar with The Great Courses you know that most of their courses, even on sale, using discount codes, and choosing the least expensive format start at about $40 each. The courses above are
$9.95 each!
Too, again if you're familiar with The Great Courses you know that the courses are generally of outstanding quality. I have bought several of them myself and can vouch for that. Also, each course has a customer rating, on a 5-star scale, so you can try to choose the better-quality courses.

While I am on the subject of The Great Courses courses, I want to share another piece of information that can save you some money. I've noticed that Audible (
http://www.audible.com) offers some (maybe all) of The Great Courses' courses. If there is a course that you see at The Great Courses website that you want, check at Audible before you buy; the course will usually, if not always, be cheaper from them.
