OH MY GOSH!! This is my first Steam Summer Sale and my god there are soo many good deals! :D I just feel so overwhelmed right now, I'll probably impulse buy like 15 games if I don't get myself away from this computer

A rule of thumb in Steam Sales is to only look at the daily and flash sales. Any game that's not part of that can get a bigger discount during the sales.

Unless it's a new release, of course.

Don't forget the new refund system. They spefically allow for the scenario where you buy a discounted game, only to have it discounted even more later on. You can get a refund on the orginal discounted price, then repurchase it at the new discounted price :)

True, but with how big the sales are, Valve may be overwhelmed with users asking for refunds and it could end backfiring you.

Just for safety purposes, I wouldn't rely on it.
