Buying Steam games and hardware without involving credit cards or bank accounts is only possible by buying gift cards with cash in a local shop. What do you mean the only winner is the company? This is a real value for me, so am I not a winner in that sense too?
Comment on Steam is ending the physical Steam Gift Cards at retailers!

“Let me give this company a fixed amount of my money so that my niece can either use a portion of it and while the company keeps the remaining balance, or spend some of her own money on top so it doesn’t go to waste.”
