So might i be able to upgrade my account once more/again with GR? I have the pre-purchase of GR...

... it just occured to me that Cyber Monday may well indicate that only the Tech/Science packs are getting discounted.

wow. That took me way too long to consider.

(I haven't bought the party pack either... but at half price, I'd consider it.)

Figures- just bought 3 boosters last week.
Yup, if the Party Pack goes half off, this will be the time I buy it. I absolutely balked at paying that price for that content, even having bought every other booster.

I really wanted the airguitar though, lol

This would be the time to get the booster packs. Wow, what a great deal!

I'm hoping this is not the case. Those two were already rather popular, so I don't think they really needed the boost. The only boosters I'm missing are the Wedding pack and Party pack because they didn't seem worth the price to me but if they go on sale, I will definitely grab them. It seems like a lot of other people here are of the same mind about the Party pack in particular so I hope that one does indeed go on sale.

... Seriously, yeah, half price I think it'd be worth it.

What bugs me is that the transaction cap means I can't do things like, say, get that second account I've toyed with the notion of, and get all the boosters for it.

How do you see exactly what boosters have been applied to your account? As far as I can tell, I can only see the serial code and a fat lot of good that does me.

I'm all over the wedding pack at 50% off.

Maybe the Mac Pack for the power, the Valkyrie stuff still doesn't appeal to me.

Thanks to Angel Red for pointing out the packs have been confirmed.

Say hello to:

  • Cyborg Pack
  • Magic Pack
  • Science Pack
  • Good vs Evil Pack
  • Wedding Pack
  • Mac Item Pack
  • 30-Day Jetpack

Good for them, but I don't think there's one on there that I don't already have that I truly want. Still, hope there's something on there for you!

Geez. The only one I'm missing is the Mutant one with the fox tail.

ok, so chase, lisar and gg all thought the same as me. quite a cross section. as for me..well, i have all the packs outside of the party pack, and on principle i would not take that one for free.(UPDATE)of the list, i have every one of those. the jetpacks are neat, but with ninja run, im good. so its good that it will get people up to speed, my little brother will be coming on soon, might get him set up now for a more economical cost.

So the ones released this year aren't part of the sale. That makes sense. To bad though, the only one I'm missing is the Party Pack because I found it to expensive. I would've gotten that one for €3 though.

Ah well, maybe next year.

So we know what you four will be doing that Monday

I'll finally pick up the wedding pack, which is the only one I don't have yet I've even considered getting.

Good point. Does the store block your card for 48 hours after the first purchase?

Perhaps a future sale for both of those would be called the Mutant Party.

Cyber Monday is the first Monday after Black Friday. It's the Black Friday of web shopping.

...And a bogus totally media-made myth with not a single one of the explanations given for it standing up to any scrutiny. Of course, that virtually guarantees that it'll catch on in America as bible truth.

What part of online stores putting up big sales on the Monday after Thanksgiving is a myth?

You ever wonder why in many towns you'll find many of the major car dealerships all right next to each other? The basic idea is that if you're shopping for a car you'll be more likely to actually buy one if you can do all of your shopping in one place without wasting any time driving around to separate locations. The dealerships are actually helping each other by being all in one place.

This is essentially the same thing that has evolved with Cyber Monday. By having many websites offer sales all on the same day potential shoppers are more likely to buy from multiple websites while they are sitting during one session to get it all done at once.

There's really no -myth- about it at all. It's just basic good business.
