Clever. For me simply not being interested in buying stuff is sufficient.

…I gave into steam this time :(
At least I kept it under 100 this time ..
Sometimes, you gotta live your life and do some purchasing.
Yeah, me too. I also kept it under 100 new games this time around.
Me when steam sales
Me when steam sales from like 2010-2016. Since then, all the good old stuff I bought a decade ago and all the good new stuff still costs more than I could pay for it elsewhere.
For those not familiar, this is a spoof on a quote from the book Dune by Frank Herbert: https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/3634639-dune
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
Frank Herbert, Dune (Dune, #1)
it would be nice if I got to keep money I didnt spend, but it gets taken from me anyway, so why not buy another plushie
You could just save money that doesn't get arbitrarily taken from you.
For those who actually like to be able to cut and paste text (cursed screenshots...always with the white background).
I must not buy. Buying is the purse-killer. Buying is the little-dopamine that brings total bankruptcy. I will face my wishlist. I will permit the limited time sale to pass over me and through me. And when it has expired I will turn the inner eye to see it's impulses. When the mania has gone there will be nothing. Only $ will remain.
