Just wanted the basics like word and PowerPoint for my mac. Was wondering where would be the cheapest place I can get them?
Cheers

Or if you are a start-up ISV specialising in Microsoft platforms, then they will give you any of their software for free.. Conditions apply though.
Free OpenOffice here: http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/faq/installing/ooo.htm…
Free LibreOffice here: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/?type=…

Depends what you are using in the package, but office has a free online version: http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/online/
It may have some restrictions and requires an M$ login/OneDrive.
Excel/Word worked quite well for me and I didn't have to fix the formatting like I do in LibreOffice & OpenOffice before emailing them out in their relative M$ formats (funky paragraph and page break issues).
If your employer is part of the Microsoft Home Use Program you could get it for $15.
