If you're quick you'll notice the price keeps fluctuating. Capcom have a bit of history with pricing errors on steam sales (Devil May Cry 4 was miss priced last crimbo and SFIV was cheaper in the summer sale.) The publishers catalogue says 25%-50% off Capcom titles during the sale but I've just bagged Lost Plannet: CE @ 70% off and Lost Planet 2 @ 67% off.

Its not just Capcom. http://store.steampowered.com/sale/holiday2011_Portal
Portal and Portal 2 are jumping between 50 and 75% off, every minute or so it changes XD

I got a 50% off voucher, not that I'd use it on any of the rubbish they are trying to pimp .

Is it just me or are all of the deals rubbish so far? One or two of the publishers packs look OK.

It's getting absolutely mullered.

Managed to get Dead Island and DLC into my cart for £6, then went to pay and its back up to £25...

*le sigh*

Same

I just gave up...

Everyone always says this. It all depends on what you want from the sale...

Just got a 25% off code and a giftable Men of War: Vietnam.

The games were cheaper in the Autumn sale and earlier in December. They've pushed the prices higher and then discounted it so it ends up more? What a joke ...

 

[RobSmith]

Completed two objectives so far and haven't received a gift or coal(?) - not quite sure how I check to see if I have coal, anyone?

What ones?

The packs are more expensive, but then they have more games in them I suppose.

Check Steam inventory. It's under heavy load though currently.

One example out of the pages that are loading at the moment, Footy Manager 2012 has it's RRP set higher, with the "discount" it's the same price it was before the sale.

This is starting to give me flash backs of the 56k dial up days.
