I recently got a Wal-Mart Moneycard, but it takes 7-10 days for a personalized card to be received.
The NoDRM sale is going to end on July 5th, and I'm not sure I'll get my card in time to buy the games on sale.
So, is there anyway to hold the games at the prices of the deals right now until I get my card?

Also, can Wal-Mart Moneycards(personalized not temporary) be used to purchase games from GOG if i live in the USA?

Thanks.

Well the first question will depend on what other forms of payment you can make such has paypal.

I do believe you can use the Wal-Mart Moneycard on gog.om according to Wal-Mart Moneycard's website

I don't use Paypal, and thank you for the info.
However, I still need to know about buying/holding games at their sale price, since I don't have my personalized card or any other way of purchasing the games currently.

Will keeping it in my shopping cart list work?

No, there is not. If you want to get the discount prices, you need to try to find a way to buy them during the deal. If I were you, I'd ask close friends or family if they could buy the games/packs for you while they're on sale, then pay them back in a couple weeks when you get your card activated. Other than that, nothing comes to mind. You're unfortunately too new and unknown for even the generous members to be inclined to float you a loan like that. Sorry.

You won't be able to hold sale prices past the expiration of their *current* sale but chances are good there will be a blowout sale again on the last day. Probably not exactly the same as what we saw this past Friday but probably close to it so many of those same 75% or more off sale prices should be back on the last day,

I see.
I guess I'll just have to see what chance brings around the time I get my personalized card...
Well, thanks for all of the help anyhow.

I hope that there will be.
