The Steam Summer sale was kinda meh, but I picked a few things. I think all for about less than $20.
I picked up Morrowind for $11. I had played the crap out of it before on my Xbox, but felt the need to play it again without puling out the old giant black box.
DLC for Crusader Kings 2 for $5
&
Galactic Civilizations II : Ultimate Edition for $5
Whats interesting is that with how frequent the huge steam sales come and now that its been a few years since the start, I don't feel compelled to lay my money down. I'm sure the fact that I'm still chugging through games purchased from sales years ago has something to do with it.
I've put in just under 2 hours with Galactic Civ 2. Around 20 minutes in I was feeling dissapointed, about an hour later I started to see why it's still talked about.
Othello
Atom Zombie Smasher and Cave Story.
Most of what I wanted I already had. Steam Sales just don't mean that much to me anymore.
Steam Sales are a great way to pick up games I normally wouldn't because they aren't appealing enough for the full pricetag.
I picked up:
Jade Empire Special Edition
F.E.A.R. Trilogy
Mirror's Edge
Fallout: New Vegas Complete
Frozen Synapse
Trine 2
Dear Esther
Evochron Mercenary
Total was around 45 bucks.. got enough to keep me busy until FE is released (and beyond)! I held off on a few games I wanted but weren't discounted enough (Witcher 2, Civ 5, Anno 2070). I'm sure they will sometime in the future.
Warlock: Master of the Arcane (very much enjoying)
Crusader Kings 2 (haven't played yet)
This was a great summer sale for me. So many games super cheap.
Crusader Kings 2 latest DLCs for $3.50 or so.
The Witcher 2 for $16 (AMAZING game by the way)
Legend of Grimrock $6
Tropico 4 bundle for $16 - Been waiting for this sale for a long, long time.
Oblivion GOTY Deluxe and Morrowind GOTY - both for $11.23. I have them on CD but for this cheap I'll take the digital versions.
Sim City 4 Deluxe for $5. Why? SC 5 will require Origin so it's a non-sale, Cities XL (all versions) no matter how much I want to like them just plain suck and my CD copies just won't run in Win 7 64bit no matter what I do. The Steam version runs fine with a couple command line tweaks.
I got Fallout 3 GOTY for $4.99. I already owned Fallout 3 and all the DLC (from GFWL) but didn't feel like bothering with discs and GFWL anymore, so I bought it again.
Crysis 2 Maximum Edition
Deus Ex Missing Link
Hard Reset
Just Cause 2
Metro 2033
Plants vs Zombies GOTY
Psychonauts
Renegade Ops
Saints Row 3
Splinter Cell Conviction
Trine 2
Warlock Master of the Arcane
Witcher 2
I really should have done this too.
From amazon:
All games and dlc have steam keys!
From steam:
Sins trinity
F3 Goty
F NEw Vegas UE
L4dead 2
Jagged Alliance BIA +dlc + this mod http://boards.jaggedalliance.com/index.php?/topic/1845-mod-combat-evolved-released/ JA BIA looks like old good JA2 !
Dungeon Defenders few dlc
Civ III
Burnout Paradise
Blood Bowl Legendary Edition
Beyond Good & Evil
Mirror's Edge
Unreal Tournament 2004
Borderlands GOTY (even though I bought retail copy on day 1)
The only game I wanted to get but didn't go on a 75% sale was King Arthur 2.
I wanted the newest version of Skyrim but I missed out.
I did get Wargame: European Escalation.
Defense Grid - The Awakening
Rome Total War with all expansions
Medieval Total War with Kingdoms
The Infinite War Battle Pack for Supreme Commander 2
X3 Albion Prelude (with cumulative discount I think, because I also own Terran Conflict)
The Total War games I got mostly for the Europa Barbarorum Mod, since I can satisfy my needs for historical play with the Paradox titles I own (Rome Gold, EU3+all expansions and Victoria + AHD).
I was tempted by Warlock - Master of the Arcane, but I'll invest my money in Fallen Enchantress, it'll sure be the best fantasy 4X out there.
Some of the best games I already own and others are just not my type, like The Witcher... meh. I love Skyrim though 
Still... a sale is always welcomed.
I got the same packages from Amazon + the 2K Strategy Pack (which includes Stronghold and Civ IV/V). Only thing I got from Steam was the Korea/Wonders combo pack.
just dcuo dlc.... mind you.. i don't even play it that much. (might have touched it for an hour in the last few months) 
That Amazon/Paradox package for under 13 bucks, valued at 135.94 is a serious deal...

Entirely too much. I dont understand how steam manages to make me buy games I already own for a console and that I know I will probably never have time to play...
Picked up medieval (despite owning a disc copy) to mess around with that Third Age mod.
Alan Wake franchise, Fortune Summoners, Wizorb, and Noitu Love 2
Noitu Love 2 is great, the other indie games were definately sale fodder
I would like to second the poster that answered "Way too much."
Let's see what all I got:
One of the Indie Bundles (contained Avadon, QUBE, Vessel, and Dungeons of Dredmor)
Orcs Must Die
Geneforge Saga
Avernum: Escape from the Pit
2nd Avernum Trilogy (4-6)
Deus Ex HR DLC (Missing Link)
Portal 2
Mount and Blade: Fire and Sword
Psychonauts
Bastion
I think that's it. And I paid just under $50 for the entire lot, once it was totalled up.
