The blackout BQ is a great deal. It comes with extra chips to make it an atmosphere or trem pedal. Or you can buy the chips if you already have one. I think I remember uglycasanova made a video doing something similar and it was cool.

Paying $40 to make a BitQuest into two new pedals is a nice deal.
There's still some nice sales going in the plugin world.
Glow (granular) and Recurse (degrader/aging) are 40% off, along with Lese's other reverb and gestural plugins. They offer free demos, but bear in mind that they mute quite frequently. If you're looking for interesting textures, it won't long to make a decision on these.
(the cart refreshes often, so you may need to logout and resubmit your cart with the discount code. their blog doesn't mention when the sale ends, so I wouldn't wait too long.)
Recurse is for unique delays.
Without a better explanation; Recurse is a recursive processing audio plugin, where effects can be applied to incoming audio over and over again as time goes on.
At the heart of Recurse is a reorderable multi effect system, where two “Loop” effects determine at which point the incoming signal is sent into an internal delay buffer, and at which point the internal buffer is mixed back into the audio signal.
Inspired by musical acts such as The Caretaker, Tim Hecker and William Basinski, Recurse features a “Degradation” processing unit where multiple smaller effects work together to simulate various forms of degradation caused by physical phenomena.
...there's no sale right now, but if you're looking for more granular flavors, Autochroma is one of my favorite plugins for this area, and it's only $40 for your desktop.
