Keep your wallets safe, the time of the year when you spend all your money on games you will never play and have to explain to your family why they won't get any Christmas gifts is now here. That's right, it's this years Steam Holiday Sale.
If you haven't noticed Christmas themed achievements have started to appear in games and are most likely related to some event like the ones during previous steam sales. So getting those could be a good way to spend your time while you wait for the sale to start.
First rule of steam sales:
Don't buy anything that isn't a daily deal until the last day of the sale.
Useful sites
http://www.steamprices.com
Use this site to compare price differences between regions. This site is useful if you know someone in another region and and want to trade gifts. You will notice when you visit the site that there are two European flags (one with the number 2 in one of it's corners), that's because Europe is often separated into two regions on steam. The European regions are:
Europe 1: Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland
Europe 2: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Malta, Monaco, Montenegro, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Vatican City
The region lists are not official so not all games fit those regions.

This site can be used to find good deals that are not advertised on the front page. Keep in mind the first rule, although if you find an extremely cheap game or a game were savings is higher than 75% it usually won't be a daily deal.
