Steam's Lunar New Year Sale is live, and it'll give you $5 off a $30 purchase

Another Steam sale is upon us, and you can enjoy some bonus discounts for decent-sized purchase

The Lunar New Year is upon us, and with it, another Steam Lunar New Year sale for 2019. You're getting the usual wide array of discounts across the Steam catalogue, but this time Valve is offering an additional discount on big purchases – along with the opportunity to pick up more coupons and tchotchkes along the way.

You can to Steam and see the discounts right now, and the sale is set to last until February 11. You'll get an automatic $5 discount on a purchase over $30, which Valve notes is "limited to one cart purchase per " – and which will, of course, translate into your equivalent currency. Not a bad way to get some extra savings.

This sale also brings back bonuses for spending money, so that you've got just a bit more psychological pressure to keep the purchases coming. You'll get tokens as you buy games – 100 tokens per $1 – that can be redeemed at a 'rewards booth' for additional $5 discount coupons, as well as new profile page styles, badges, and other such digital baubles. (Please do the math before you spend $150 for a $5 coupon, though.)
