The break even point would be at a balance of 23.08$. However, if the account balance doesn't expire, buying your own game to put you over the threshold would be checking the couch cushions for loose change level of desperation.
Oh, it's petty cash to be sure. If you have $100-ish bucks to throw around, you probably aren't going to miss much by not doing this. Unless, of course, letting someone else take even one dollar from you in this way is against your religion or something (i.e. the principle of the thing). Conversely, if you need the handful of dollars this makes, you probably don't have that kind of walking-around money in the first place.
