Oh no, they lower prices sometimes. Whatever shall we do except buy, buy, buy!?

Right. Because valve puts games on special just because they are good people. It’s absolutely NOT so people will buy more games than they otherwise would have. Definitely not. Nope

So don't buy games outside of your means? I never said they do it to be 'good people' but the fact that the game is on sale doesn't force you to buy it. Be a responsible adult.
