Hehe, so many indie games for Levi.  Lots of interesting stuff that isn't listed on the main steam page.

Edit: Blarg, it blanked out my shopping cart!

Edit2: Blarg, it did it again.  Maybe I'll wait till its more stable...

If anyone is interested in Toki Tori 2 and wants an extra 10% off the current daily sale price, I have a spare 10% off coupon for it that expires in around 6 hours. Throw me a message on steam steamcommunity.com/id/metalax/ if you want it.

Skyrim legendary is 40% off on flash sale for about the next 6 hours and all the individual DLC's are 50% off for the same time.

OK, gonna have to have someone explain this to me...
What is this 'bioshock infinite summer getaway' card?

It's part of the recent trading cards addition to steam. Essentially, being in a game that has trading cards causes them to drop into your inventory at roughly 1 card every 30 minutes, up to a certain limit, by trading cards from other games that you own or purchasing them from the steam marketplace you can craft badges related to that game. Doing so increases your steam level which enables a larger friends list and more customisation of your profile page. During the sale, crafting a badge for any game will also cause a summer getaway card to drop, again trading or purchasing them until you have a full set will allow you to craft them to provide a badge and other rewards.

What is this 'bioshock infinite summer getaway' card?

It's explained on the main Steam page, but basically: there are 10 Steam Trading Cards for the Summer Sale. You unlock these cards by:

* Crafting badges for other games. (If you crafted a badge in the last week, you got a 'mystery card' that has now been revealed as a Summer Trading Card).

* Spending money. Every $10 spent earns one card.

* Voting for the Community Choice options. Every 3 votes gets you one card, if you have Steam level 5 or higher. This is to prevent people making new free Steam accounts and farming trading cards; if you achieve level 5 before the end of the sale, you get all the cards you should've earned over the sale.


If you collect one of each of the 10 cards in the set, you can craft a badge. This goes on your permanent Steam record for bragging rights, and additionally gets you Steam XP that levels up your account (meaning a bigger Friends list, more frequent card booster packs, etc).

I've made about 20$ on steam cards. All you have to do is leave eligible games on and let the free monies roll in.
