My limit is $30 and I know I've already blown through most of it.

Legend of Grimrock - $5.99

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II - $4.99

Sonic Generations: $10.19

Sonic Generations - Casino Nights DLC: $0.53

Binding of Issac: Wrath of the Lamb: $0.74

Spent: $22.44

I still want to get Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, which should be $2.50 at some point, any idea what I should do with the other ~$5?

Maybe you can buy ArmA II : operation arrowhead if you like the DayZ mod when it gets a franchise sale ?

I doubt that'd happen, the official site is have a "massive" sale for 25% off, plus they're already making bank like hell off of steam, why would they put it on sale?

To make even more money. Sure there are a lot of people who will buy it for what they're charging now but many of those people have purchased it already. There are many more people that will not under any circumstances pay $24.74(25% discount from developer) or even $23.99(20% discount on Steam). If they want my money then they'll have to give me a better deal.

If they can sell it as a top item on Steam for the current price, why drop it? Milk it now while it lasts, DayZ might go standalone in the future and Arma 3 is on it's way.

I'm going to keep an eye on the sales though. Ya never know.

Fable: The Lost Chapters, Magicka and GTA Complete Pack if it'll go for 7,50€. Maybe Legend Of Grimrock if it'll be discounted -75%, but I don't believe that.

I'm planning to try to stay under $10 total. Down $4.50 yesterday on Dark Messiah, SpaceChem DLC, and Darksiders from GMG (using some leftover credit). Still planning on getting the 2 HL1 expansions, and probably whichever one of Universe Sandbox, Prince of Persia, or Indie Game: The Movie gets a 75% off sale first. Or maybe Trine 2 if that gets an encore sale.

Trine 2 already was 75% in the community vote.

I know, that's why I said if "if that gets an encore sale." In past sales, Steam has had a day at the end (or sometimes two, with the second at the mid-way point) where they re-run the most popular individual deals from earlier in the event.

My funds are super low this year (only 10 bucks D:) but I'm thinking either L.A. Noire, 40K Space Marine, Batman: AA, or maybe Darkness 2.

For the other 5, the ones currently there I'd say that Terraria is fantastic, the Penumbra games are great (by the same devs who made Amnesia), Payday is an okay game with friends and over at Greenmangaming they have a sale going on. I just got Metro 2033 for free from them with trading in games. :)

Well I have 100 € saved, but I won't be using all. Today I just bought Darksiders, still nothing interesting like Dead Island or Arma 2, and sadly they won't put Amalur on sale, since it's published by EA. Guess I won't be spending too much cash this sales.

I've decided to adapt to the hole in my account after the sale is over. So far I've spent 28€, on Indie Bundle I, Super Street Fighter IV: AE, Space Marine Complete and Sonic Generations Casino DLC. Even if it takes months to regenerate, this happens once a year.

I've realised that the act of buying and collecting games is more fun than actually playing them, so I'm trying to hold myself back this time. Haven't set myself an allowance per se but rather a list of certain games I'm going to grab off daily sales: Portal 2, Witcher 1, Grand Theft Auto Complete Pack.
Other than those three, perhaps a couple of wee cheap games, indie or otherwise. Making it to a total of €20 or so.
Look at me being all responsible a consumer.

Haha agreed, I was about to get the Alan Wake pack even though the only thing I know about it is that it got a bunch of publicity...Must resist ;)

Now, Alan Wake is actually a good game and a good PC port. If you are actually going to play it, I'd say buy it.

About $25. Didn't get much from the Christmas sale, and I'm expecting some decent deals over the coming days.

I think as long as I have spent less than $20, I can buy whatever I think I will enjoy. That means if I have spent $15, but there's a really awesome game on sale for $7, I will still buy it. But once I've passed $20, I'm done and can only cry at future deals.

I think allow myself to spend around 50-60 euro, depending on what goes on sale etc.

MP3 seems like a good buy.

I've allotted $50 for summer sales in general, so far i've spent:

$7.50 NBA Jam On Fire Edition (PSN) and $3.00 LOTR:WOTN (GMG)

...so i'm in pretty good shape to get what I want from the Steam Sale.

75 dollars, spent 25 already on the first day, good thing today's deals have nothing I want (except for maybe PAYDAY, but then I feel like I'll waste money on a game that would only last me a short while)

Not strictly Steam related but it's on offer for €4.98 over on GreenManGaming. Traded in Commandos for €1.50 and the voucher from the Hacker Evo games brought it down to €2.50.

It's a Steamworks game so don't really care about not buying it on Steam.
