Parallels Desktop for Mac always goes on sale at different points, sometimes in bundles.

Does anybody know of one that's currently running, in a bundle or on it's own? I have a previous version I can upgrade from if that makes a difference.
 
The upgrade price is $49.99, $30 off the regular price. For an extra $29.99, you can bundle it with Roxio Toast Titanium, which is regularly $99.99.
 
It goes on sale two or three times a year. Give it a few months, it'll be on sale. A new version usually comes out when a new OS X is released, so Parallels 11 will probably be out in September anyway.

If you can't wait a few months and money is tight, use VirtualBox instead. It's pretty good, but last time I checked it didn't support Windows Aero.
