Add to that my weekly blogs here, and three times a week on cert topics for IT Career JumpStart over at TechTarget, and that's a whole lotta blogging. And because of that, I've returned repeatedly to a free, book-length resource I created for this very own site about two years ago now.

Ed TittelWhoa! Killer Deals on eBook/Practice Test Bundles

In general, when shopping for cert prep materials, it's a good idea to shop around for such deals as may be available. One good way to save money on such stuff, in fact, is to look for bundles related to specific certification credentials, particularly for certs that require candidates to take and pass more than one exam to earn them.
