I wouldn't worry that those thanks messages get overlooked when you post them in the description. I'm personally fine with that and always see those.
If you "fear" that people may not see your words of gratitude, just make the thank-you-message a bit more expansive, like: "hey thanks for gifting me (eg.) Bad Rats" (or whatever game you've won).
In the end you can't really know, what people expect you to say after you've won a gift. I guess the majority is totally fine with a little thanks in the comments section. Just do as you find appropriate!
Apart from this, I do it exactly like madnessnewb.

If the game is a gift, that'd mean I will be friend with them in steam when I receive the gift, so I'd thank them via steam chat.
If the game is key which appear in won page, I'd thank them via giveaway comment.
One of the winner in my giveaways even reply my gift which I sent via email with thank you message.

I always leave a comment in the giveaways that I win, but I might also thank the person personally on Steam sometimes.

Most people will write a thank you note in the GA and I always see it. You get a notification and by that time the GA's over, so yours will be the last message on the GA's page. I don't see how it could be missed, but that's just me. I really do appreciate it when winner say thank you cause it make me feel like I gave someone a little joy <3

I often ask myself how to thank people properly when I receive a game. If they send it via chat or mail I can tell them directly but otherwise I'm stuck with submitting a comment directly in the giveaway. Unfortunately the gifter might not even see it within all the other comments in all their giveaways. On the other hand I could send them a message via steam chat but I'm thinking that it might be considered obtrusive. How do you say thank you?
