Just purchased Divinity: Original Sin and Don't Starve. I go on vacation the week after next, good thing I have a good bit of money saved up.
So far I've purchased Octodad: Dadliest Catch and State of Decay. Nothing today has caught my eye though!
XCOM: Enemy Within, The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, Shadowrun: Dragonfall and Borderlands 2 Headhunter 5 DLC so far.
Keeping an eye each day for any reductions on my wish list and so far doing good resisting impulse buy temptations.

I should have posted this earlier, but Sleeping Dogs is almost definitely being ported to the Mac, and probably by Feral. It's $4 right now, but only for another 40 minutes. It'll probably be on sale again, though.
Picked up that, Wolf Among Us, and E.Y.E (the latter for 90 cents, and with cards, that practically makes it free!). That'll probably do it for me this sale. My restraint has improved...I think.

So far:
Divinity: Original Sin
Don't Starve
Surgeon Simulator 2013
The Wolf Among Us
Tomb Raider
I'm sure there will be more.

Underwhelming
I'm not sure if others agree but, I find this summer's steam sale to be very underwhelming compared to other sales they have had.

I agree! I usually went crazy with impulse buys. There just isn't that much I want or see appealing on it.
Nearly everything ends up on sale. How is it more boring than prior sales unless you already own near everything you want, likely from prior sales?
Not many good games that are "must haves" this year. Also the games I want Wolfenstein & Age of Wonders 3 aren't really on sale yet due to being too new.
No mac ports yet either, and the others I want are only 25% so I'll easily wait.
Wow. I hope that turns out to be true. That would be great.
Picked up The Wolf Among Us, Tomb Raider GOTY Edition, Metro Last Light Complete and The Last Remnant yesterday.
I know Metro has issues at the moment but the fix being delayed is understandable considering the developers were based in Ukraine. I read someplace they are currently relocating and the game is going to be fixed. I can easily wait anyway with so much to play.
I couldn't resist The Last Remnant which was only $2.50 and is rated Platinum with Wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=28566
I'm having a good time with this sale so far myself.
Also Metal Gear Rising folks, it's coming to Mac. It accidentally went live last month on Steam.
Another to pick up now during the sale if you're interested.

Picked up some PC-side games in preparation for my new system: My old friend Evil Genius and SimCity 4 (now with Mac client!), which were the last games I owned that still needed the CD inserted to play. Also the Dragonborn expansion for Skyrim.
Also went for the whole Farcry franchise because heck, why not? Also Gone Home, and Don't Starve.

Hitman: Absolution is on flash sale for $4.
I've resisted buying anything so far, but I am seriously tempted by Lego: The Movie: The Game.

Must have! I jumped on the Absolution Elite pack which includes all DLC.
I'm hoping there's some additional updates when it goes live on the 30th. That's one reason I didn't get Wasteland 2 because the release date isn't until December.
My one pet peave is that you can't zoom out farther. I'm sure there's probably a way to do this in an option file somewhere as in Rift it had a zoom limit that hindered raid bosses, but with a little .ini editing the problem was easily fixed.
I ended up ordering the Boxed version of Divinity Original Sin, and I'm really looking forward to it.
The devs are currently not even responding to social media or press as they're working non-stop on the game to get it ready for lunch.
Also up until recently each update changed so much they wiped previous saved games, so that'll probably happen again with the final update before Launch. As such I don't want to get stuck in until it's out.
