Buy a couple of games, then spend the rest on something better like clothing, shoes, etc. Your purchasing too many games :P

To have to save money for Steam's sales is like watching random TV shows to get ready to watch the Super Bowl. Completely uneccessary. 8)

I need to finish the games I bought in the Christmas sale in 2008 let alone those I bought in 2009 first :P So I probably won't be saving much, but I'll still purchase a couple regardless :P

I use a pre-paid credit card, i'm certainly going to make sure there is at least a couple hundred in there. :D Don't need to save up though as I'm working and don't have much to spend money on. :P

I'm bound to have some kind of money. I don't think I'll need that much either because the deals were so damn cheap.

I'll put 100 away for the sales, but I really doubt I'll spend that much.

There might be a full list out there, but some games were as low as 80% off. Even the newer and bigger games were anywhere from 30-50%.

One of the biggest steals imo was Torchlight for $5.

My laptop can't run new games but I'll probably buy some 5 or 10 dollar games that came out years ago.

Games I still want to buy on Steam: - Worms Reloaded - Counter-Strike Source. Games I might buy on Steam: - Dead Rising 2 (but I'm more interested in buying it for the 360) - Civilization 5 (I have the demo since it launched but still haven't found the time to play it. Love Civ Rev though) So yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to the Holiday sales but I'm not saving up or anything. Yet.

No need to save. Just reduce the amount I'd spend on other things that month and use it for Steam instead. I bought 50 games during the summer sale. There's still plenty to be had. It just depends on how good of a sale it is and how much I want the game(s), but since I don't know what those games or the prices are yet, it's hard to say.

Black Friday had better sales I think. I'll probably buy a bunch, but I already have a huge selection and I don't really want that much more lol.

Buy Civ5, it destroys Civ Rev in every way.

and this is why steam can stay free, people will mass buy games on sale, and probably not play them, or play like a hour of 2 of it, like my friend who keeps buying games at every sale, i've wasted to much money on games during sales
