Consume it?
Yes, while in doubt, I'd say it's a very good advice.
But does this also apply to boots?

I got everyday socks, so.... I can't imagine that consuming those will be pleasant.

find them in your steam inventory
for 1 use- u get 1st lvl badge
for every other use badge level up, thats it ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Every consumed item adds 25xp
From looking at https://steamdb.info/badges/ badge images change at 1+/10+/25+/100+ ... up to 1M+
Comment has been collapsed.
I wonder what the highest lvl will turn out to be ... 1M+ just sounds absolutely crazy and stupid expensive to me ;)
but you never know...
Comment has been collapsed.
It's like 5-6 cents for 25XP... which is probably cheaper than most badges (100XP for 5 cards minimal)
Comment has been collapsed.
At the start yes, but 5th usage already gives only 20 xp, then eventually 15 and so on. It doesn't make sense past some point, just like leveling on Steam.

Fortunately I only got 2 from the market (at 0,03) before finding that out, some other seems to have bought thousands without knowing about the dropoff :/

yea i got screwed i bought over 300. valve should have had the values in the knick knack description and on sale faq
Comment has been collapsed.
Bought a bunch of these out of curiosity.
First 4 were 25 XP each (reached 100 XP)
Next 4 were 20 XP each (reached 180 XP total)
Then it dropped to 15 XP for the next 2 (total of 210 XP)
Then 10 XP for the next 4 (total of 250 XP)
After that each consumable only gets 1 XP, so it's not really worth levelling that badge up beyond that point
Not that it's actually worth levelling any badge up, but in case anyone else was wondering …

Well, there goes the plan to get 25XP per... no wonder they are going that cheap.

It's a different badge, Winter 2018 knick-knack collector.

I got a bag a coins, consumable coins, then steam made the obvious joke that they were thankfully chocolate coins.
I sometimes question what the guys at valve are doing instead of games with a 3 on their names.
Comment has been collapsed.
They are doing lots of weapon skins and hats. And now card art as well for the advanced employees. This pretty much sums it up.

I ate it and got a lvl 1 badge. Although my knick-knack was different than this. I find this to be the weirdest steam sale badge to date.
Comment has been collapsed.
there is no difference what will be used
1 use= 1 level ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, I gathered that much. But there seem to be tons of different (equal in usability) knick-knacks out there.
Comment has been collapsed.
This might be the best option but then again those few cents are not going to make much of a difference :)
Edit: Sorry if this reply seems confusing, it was meant as a reply to mewdego. No clue why it ended up here

Go here, and click on the outlined 'door' (new door available each day, you can open missed ones from previous days at any time). You'll get three items for doing so (seems to be one background, one consumable, and one emoji).

There's a link to the cottage from the main store page too.

Thanks, but my door from yesterday had only 2 items - a Team Fortress 2 background and a Warframe emoticon. There was no consumable.
Comment has been collapsed.
Mine was 2 items at first, but then consumable appeared in my inventory some hours later.

Huh! I will have to check my Inventory again. I know I looked earlier today, and even though it said I received a total of 6 items (from yesterday and today), I could not find any consumables.
Comment has been collapsed.
I looked at your inventory, sort by consumables, there are 2. Candy Cane and Gold Coins, Cheers~
Comment has been collapsed.
Gasp! You looked at my Inventory?!? Couldn't you at least buy me dinner first? I seem to have a candy cane and some gold coins, after all!;) LOL!
In all seriousness, thank you for pointing them out for me.:)

Oh, I am sorry! Where are my manners. Pardon me. And welcome, hope you're enjoying the Cottage Event, I know I am :)
Merry Christmas and Cheers, Cruse~

For anyone reading this, Valve fixed the problem. Anyone who was missing an item can now go back to the cozy cottage page and re-open the door in question, and any missing items from the first time will now be given to you.

When my GF opened a door she had "2 items"... the inbox showed 4 items... the 'missing' item was a ETS2 (I think that's the abbrevation) cakehouse thingie ingame... was 3 items after all.
Myself I got 2 backgrounds rather than bg+emoticon yesterday.
Lazy shack can be odd sometimes eh?

When my GF opened a door
Briefly, I thought she opened a real door . . . >_>" Yes, the servers arent the best after all these years. I usually start the Explore Queue at least 1hr after the reset as I keep getting blank pages and I hate to miss out on an item on the Queue. 15,252 viewed dividable by 12 which are the number of items in a queue ^^
*Side note - I read your comment on Subnautica on Epic, yep I got it there or at least I claimed it. Thank you. Also the forum can be weird at times when there are alot of threads comments. I also experience hitting the 1st page instead of the last. Cheers and Merry Christmas ^_^

Yeah, the forum plants you back at page 1 when the topic title is altered.
Atleast they seem to have finally fixed the bug where crafting a badge giving you card #1 didn't actually show it... AFTER 3 YEARS.
Comment has been collapsed.
I am wondering, am I missing anyinformation about the items that drop? Are they good for anything? All of them have a "cozy" in their name (speaking of emotes and backgrounds). And why do they grant a 100 gems each? Why is anybody selling them if they can make nice sacks of gems? I can't get rid of the feeling that I'm missing something obvious...
Can anybody please shed some light for me?
Comment has been collapsed.
1) Some people might like to use certain bg and emoticons. Since you get 2 from a random group you need to buy/trade/alt the missing ones.
2) Not everyone knows gems well and just go the market route.
3) They grant 100 gems since Valve and Valve likes giving their own items the biggest value to give the biggest buck over everyone else.
Comment has been collapsed.
It just doesnt make sense selling them, you sell 1 for like 4 cents get 2 cents times 10 you get 20 cents. A bag of gems right now goes for 24 cents giving you 21 cents per bag and this is now and as record shows bags of gems once sold for 3.94 a bag getting you 3.43 per bag
Comment has been collapsed.
This was exactly my thinking, hence the question. Thanks for confirming.
Comment has been collapsed.
I calculated just the other way round, since sacks of gems, being at their all time low, still give 25 Cents each. Ooookay, you probably reuced it by their fees already. Which would make your statement true.
Thanks for your input!

I'm not sure what they do, but I used them anyway. Steam told me to wear the socks. I had no idea this was an option xD

Is anyone getting problem with the card dropping from the discovery queue today? I got 0 cards and I finished 2 queues and it keeps saying you have 3 more cards to get and nothing is dropping O.o
Comment has been collapsed.
today is the last day and will be disappeared or we can still use it tomorrow ?
Comment has been collapsed.
Just a reminder to everyone that the Steam Awards consumables/knick-nacks and Award cards expire later today. Use them, craft the budges, sell them or turn them into gems before they expire.

How do I consume them????
