Saw another thread where they talked about doing your research to find the best deals during Steam Summer sale. Hopefully many of you already know of it, but in case you don't, I wanted to introduce my best friend and worst enemy IsThereAnyDeal.

You can login with Steam to sync your wishlist, view historical price information for points of reference and to gauge how frequently a game goes on sale. You can also set criteria of when to get notified when a game lists at or below your target price, and even specify vendors if desired. I definitely recommend it to all my fellow gamers.

I'll second the recommendation for ITAD. It's nice that it shows me the various store prices for a game I'm already looking to pick up. As a nice secondary bonus, it's my understanding that all the sites listed in ITAD are verified to not be sketchy in regard to grey market keys, which I go to great lengths to not support.

Also a shout out to https://gg.deals/

Same purpose of finding good deals and deal alerts, but with a cleaner UI and less ads

I recommend Augmented Steam, it's an extension for browsers that integrates itad among other things to the steam store, so you can see if there are better deals on other stores while you browse.
