Strategies

Some people approach the sales with a strategy, like Malorajan who shared his wisdom with Reddit users.

Unfortunately, I dive into the sea of bargains, forget I need an adult and promptly drown.

Will I play all the games I buy? No. Probably not. But maybe I will! This fiction of probabilities sustains my fervent shopping spree.

But I am not totally guided by wild QVC-whoreism. I have two questions that I ask myself before I click that “Purchase for Myself” button:

“Is the game less than $10?”

and:

“Do you really, really want to play this?”

If the answer to both is yes, I buy it. If the answer to the first question is no, then I tend to wrestle with my conscience before giving in to the darkness and forking out.
