I can hold out until it’s $19.99 – this is normal for me.

I bought it for less than that from a pawn shop during the peak hate. I remember the pawn guy being like "that ones got real bad reviews" and I said "I'll try any game for $14".
I tucked it away for a year or so and then loved it.

I bought a used PS4 copy of No Man's Sky for 5$ before the Next update came out.
