#MacStoriesDeals: 20% Off Hazel Screencast & Superstorm Sandy Donations

#MacStoriesDeals: 20% Off Hazel Screencast & Superstorm Sandy Donations

Last week, I linked to Mac OS X Screencasts’ Hazel tutorial, a 1-hour screencast detailing several Hazel features:

I have watched the entire video, and, indeed, I think it’s one of the best resources you can buy to get started with Hazel and understand all of the its potential. Screencast quality is good, with on-screen guides and labels, zoomed views on specific sections and menus, and clean transitions. The voiceover is concise and to-the-point. The video lasts an hour, but it passes quickly thanks to the provided examples and explanations – it’s definitely not boring, as most video tutorials can be nowadays.

Should you get it? Yes. If you’re new to Hazel, this will get you up to speed very quickly. And, even as a long-time Hazel user, the screencast refreshed my memory on several aspects of Noodlesoft’s app.

Thanks to Mac OS X Screencasts, we can offer a 20% discount off the Hazel screencast (regular price €10) with the coupon code MACSTORIES-IS-AWESOME. The coupon code is valid from November 1st - 18th. Simply head over to Mac OS X Screencasts’ website and paste our coupon code to receive a 20% discount.

But there’s more. For every screencast sold with our coupon code, Mac OS X Screencasts will donate €1.50 to American Red Cross to help people impacted by Hurricane Sandy in the United States. If you purchase the Hazel screencast without our coupon code, Mac OS X Screencasts will donate €3 to American Red Cross for every screencast sold.

The Hazel screencast offer is available here. If you’d like to donate to American Red Cross without having to buy the Hazel screencast, we recommend Apple’s own donation page available on iTunes.

UPDATE: Together with Mac OS X Screencasts we’re giving away 5 free screencasts for this Hazel tutorial. To enter, tweet to @macstoriesdeals with the hashtag #macstorieshazeltutorial and we’ll pick 5 winners later today! GOOD LUCK!
