People are rushing to buy Microsoft Office because it's currently on sale for just $50—but the deal only lasts a week. After that, the price could jump back up, so folks are grabbing it while they can.

Editor’s Note: Everyone loves a good discount, especially on something as essential as Microsoft Office. This limited-time offer is creating a sense of urgency, which explains the "panic-buying" vibe. If you've been holding off on upgrading or buying Office, now might be the time to act—before the price goes back to normal.
