Today’s the last day that Amazon’s offering the 2k Strategy Pack for $20. This is an amazing deal because it includes Civilization V (with all the Game of the Year downloadable content), which is still selling on Amazon, Steam, and the Mac App Store for $30. That by itself makes this a good deal. But Amazon also throws in several other cool games, like the Gods & Kings expansion, Civilization 4, and the Stronghold Collection by Firefly Studios. All of the games activate on Steam, and Civilization 4 and Civilization 5 even work on Mac.
The cool thing about picking up Steam game deals when you find them is that when those fabled Steam Boxes finally come out, you’ll already have a game library (unlike every other console you’ve ever purchased.) [Amazon]

Clif Bars may be the perfect foodstuff to purchase on the internet. They’re not perishable, Amazon will ship them for free, and when I checked my corner store at lunch, they were retailing for $2 a pop. Today from Amazon, you can buy 10 Clif “Crunch” bars for $4, which comes out to 40 cents a bar. Pretty excellent. [Amazon]
