HarperCollins Publishers has several business titles on sale for $2.99. Apparently, they must be bought directly from HarperCollins to get the lower price (Amazon, at least, is not matching the prices).

Most, if not all, of the titles are high-quality.

Here are the titles:
- Becoming the Boss: New Rules for the Next Generation of Leaders, by Lindsey Pollak.
- Bitter Brew: The Rise and Fall of Anheuser-Busch and America's Kings of Beer, by William Knoedelseder.
- Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything, by Steven D. Levitt, Stephen J. Dubner.
- Getting from College to Career: Your Essential Guide to Succeeding in the Real World, Revised edition. By Lindsey Pollak.
- How to Work a Room: The Ultimate Guide to Making Lasting Connections--In Person and Online, 25th Anniversary Edition (fully revised and updated), by Susan RoAne.
- I Shouldn't Be Telling You This: How to Ask for the Money, Snag the Promotion, and Create the Career You Deserve, by Kate White.
- Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions, Revised and Expanded Edition, by Dan Ariely.
- Straight Flush: The True Story of Six College Friends Who Dealt Their Way to a Billion-Dollar Online Poker Empire--and How It All Came Crashing Down . . ., by Ben Mezrich.
- The Ten-Day MBA: A Step-by-Step Guide to Mastering the Skills Taught in America's Top Business Schools, 4th Edition, by Steven A. Silbiger.
- What Would Machiavelli Do? The Ends Justify the Meanness, by Stanley Bing.
- Welcome to the Real World: Finding Your Place, Perfecting Your Work, and Turning Your Job into Your Dream Career, by Lauren Berger.

Now, the bad news. These ebooks can be read only with HarperCollins' proprietary reader app. Then the ebooks can be read on iPhone/iPad, Android, and Kindle Fire.

All information can be found here: http://www.harpercollins.com/weeklydeal. Be sure to note that you must use promo code BUSINESS299 to get the reduced price, when you check out.

I'd like to have several of the titles but, unfortunately, the lack of availability of the ebooks in a standard format (mobi, ePub, pdf) is a dealbreaker for me.
