Has anyone seen any good outliner or writing or productivity deals yet? I’ve got a few apps and subscriptions on my wishlist but have not seen anything pop up yet.

The Affinity products, Affinity Publisher, Affinity Designer, and Affinity Photo, are 50% off for black Friday.
For about the cost of one month of Adobe Creative Cloud, you may find you can have everything you need on a permanent license, no subscription.
All three Affinity products have a learning curve, but it’s not bad.
Desktop publishers are not word processors, of course.
For pamphlets, I like to write in a word processing document. The Outline or Navigation pane in the word processor lets me keep track of what text goes in which article in the pamphlet. That way I have one file with all the “copy” for the pamphlet in one place.
My preference is to copy plain text into Affinity. If I paste formatted Word text, Affinity picks up the styles from Word. Nice, if that’s what you want to do. I prefer to let Affinity handle all aspects of styles.

Standard Notes is currently offering a 50% discount on their annual plans:

They say that the discount will be permanent as long as one remains subscribed:

By way of reference, I recently mentioned Standard Notes here:

I hadn’t realized that they’ve been acquired by Proton, although they say they are continuing full steam ahead as a separate product:
