Yeah, so the key is to stay on your toes and set up alerts. I use a price‑tracking site and a Discord bot that pings me when a bundle hits my target price. For pre‑orders, I usually wait for the launch day or the day after—those are the sweet spots when early bird bonuses get cut. If I’m really on a roll, I’ll hop into a community Discord, grab a buddy to split a bundle with, and we use the split‑payment trick on the platform that allows you to pay in installments. That way I get the bundle at a lower effective price, and we both keep our wallets from bleeding. Just don’t get stuck scrolling for hours—set a timer, grab your coffee, and go.

That’s solid—my own alerts usually just hit the fan with a pop‑up, so adding a hard timer keeps me from the scrolling trap. I’ll also start checking the fine print on those split plans before I click, because who wants a surprise fee at the end of a loot‑drop? Coffee in the fridge is the real MVP, I swear I’ve gone 15 minutes on a sale because I thought it was still “waiting.” Thanks for the tweak, it’ll keep the math clean and the brain sharper.
