PPI2PASS Discount Code

PPI2PASS Discount Code

Note: This code is good until forever. 

To receive a discount on your ppi2pass purchase, enter discount code (See below to save more than 30%!) before you checkout. This discount code applies to almost anything published by PPI.

Reasons to buy from Amazon and not from ppi2pass: 

1.) Prices are cheaper on Amazon. Amazon policy forces every seller to sell at or lower than any price anywhere else, even on the publisher's own site. 
2.) Amazon gives free shipping on orders over $35. PPI waits until $350 for free shipping.
3.) PPI ships 10-day slow. Amazon has faster options, such as 2-day shipping. And, if you are a member of Amazon Prime, 2-day shipping is free. Follow the link to get a free 30-day membership, and you will receive 2-day shipping for FREE. Sign up for the free 30 days. You get a free ebook loan per month; free 2-day shipping with no minimum;  instantly watch 40,000 videos and tv episodes. Cancel after 30 days with no cost.
4.) Even if you buy one of PPI's bundles, you still pay more than if you buy on Amazon.


Enter the promo code during checkout to receive discount.

PPI2PASS discount code: ff1212

Compare total cost for Civil Engineering Reference Manual, 2015:
Amazon: $274.89 + (shipping = free) = $274.89
PPI: $275 less 20% discount = $220 + (shipping = $20.63) = $240.63

So, this is a big surprise. Sometime in the last year or so, PPI massively reduced their prices. This is good news for PE examinees. For now, it appears you can get good prices on the PPI website. However, Amazon's policy still requires that sellers not sell lower on their own sites. This will end some future time, when Amazon learns about it. But, for now, you can get better prices at the publisher's site. Enjoy. 

How to Save More
Most of the books published by PPI (maybe all) are also for sale on Amazon.com. I compiled the best PE Exam review books on a collection of pages, all located at the other end of the in-text link in this sentence. You will find the books organized according to specific PE exam specialties. There are pages for:
Mechanical PE exam
Electrical Engineering PE exam
Civil: Structural
Civil: Geotechnical
Transportation
Environmental and Water Resources
California Special Surveying Exam
California Civil Seismic Principles Exam
PE Sample Exams

 and just about all the various exams. Each page lists the best-reviewed books first, then in descending order. Only current editions are listed.

Reasons to buy from Amazon and not from ppi2pass:

ABSOLUTELY BE SURE TO PURCHASE: 
Pass the PE like a Pro

If you plan to pass the PE exam, I highly recommend this product:

1. Civil Engineering Reference Manual, the Lindeburg book - Buy Civil Engineering Reference Manual.


Purchase your books early. Learn what they give you. Acquire two calculators, here's why: PE Exam Calculators, why you need two, and how to choose them.
