Microsoft is having a one-day sale today, with big savings on Surface Pro 4, Xbox One S, and many other products. And yes, that big Groove promotion that Brad mentioned last night is part of this sale.
Technically, the “one day” sale is closer to two days. It began last night at 9 pm ET and runs through midnight tonight. Savings vary by product, but they will range from 27 to 50 percent. Except in Groove’s case, where the savings are closer to 86 percent.

In case it’s not obvious, Microsoft’s one day sale is timed to Amazon’s annual sale for Prime members, which requires a $100 annual subscription fee. Google and others are having similar sales as well.
