Thanks to reader CapitalImagePhotography for pointing out that Amazon has Photoshop Elements 10 for $45.98 with free shipping or download.
I did a post a while back that summarizes my recommendation for upgrading to PSE 10. Basically, don’t bother to upgrade from PSE 9 but if you have an older version that PSE 9 upgrading to PSE 10 is a good idea.
