Yes, every voucher will have unique exceptions which aren't always easy to find.

There are two sources for them on ITAD. Official and crowdsourced. You can see the source at the bottom of the page for every voucher. For crowdsourced vouchers any user can submit edits for review as needed, FYI.

IsThereAnyDeal @isthereanydeal.com · 10d

Not sure if it's a win for open source... or a loss by promoting more paper and resource waste. Looks neat though.

Since it's also the steam autumn sale, I encourage browsing through isthereanydeal.com @isthereanydeal.com
It's a price comparison site where only official stores are listed. Checking here can sometimes save you even more than on Steam, especially during sale times.

I also recommend checking out IsThereAnyDeal.com ! ;) And if you set up an account with an email addy you can get alerts sent directly to when a game goes on sale for the price you choose at the stores you choose. :) 🚀

So the good news... Steam sale started today! The less good news... that will very likely cause some intermittent issues with the site. We've brought some additional server resources online, but the internet "hug of death" can be a lot in the first few hours.
