Too bad, because I probably would have went with the champagne trio .

Interesting that there are different offers for different members!

Could you post the link they give you in the email?    Those were the only polishes I wanted from this month and I am willing to splurge on that one for the price.  I got a different offer.

The Buy Now link goes to this page:  http://www.julep.com/collections/garden-party-collection/nightshades.html but it doesn't work yet.  Maybe it will in a few hours.

I think it's related to the reason you put for skipping this month.  This month I said I was skipping because I didn't like the colors and they sent me the offer for the champagne trio whereas last month I said I was skipping due to cost and the sent me an offer that was less then the usual 20$ price.

http://www.julep.com/collections/garden-party-collection/the-champagne-trio.html is the link they sent in the email to buy the champagne trio for 20$ but it's still showing up as 33$ for me now.  I'm not going to purchase this either because I've spent enough on beauty stuff this month even though I do like the colors.

I got the same e-mail, and the same $33.60 prices pops up for me, too, even when I'm signed in. It says that's the Maven price. Hopefully they'll fix it later. It's already under the "curated sets" section of the website: http://www.julep.com/gifts/the-champagne-trio.html at the crazy price.

That makes sense since I did say it was a money issue this month.  I really do like Lacey as well and would have considered the Bombshell box, but my money issue came from knowing I would want to add the champagne trio which would make it pricey.

I will give them till the end of the day to get it straight on the price, then I will email.  I'm guessing time zones have something to do with it since the link they sent in my offer still doesn't even work.

Wow. I skipped bec I didnt have enough money and didnt get that trio email. I got the double email off for $20. Kinda lame

 

[Lulubelle107]

Good to know that the offers are related to the reason you selected for skipping.  Knowing that means it will probably influence what I select for future skips, however, as the 3 polish deal is better than the 1 at $9.99, even though it's less money.  I selected the "didn't  care for the colors" option this month.

I'm guessing the links are time zone dependent at well.

Yours is 2 for $14.99, which is better than 1 for $9.99 IMO.  Are those colors from the Garden Party collection, I can't tell?

 

[tacehtpuekam]

Just FYI...the beauty bio code works on the trio, bringing it down to $16.80. Might be a glitch, but hey!

 

[meaganola]

I received the Chsmpagne Trio email! That was what I really wanted. I'll get it just as soon as they fix the price issue despite my low-buy because I love metallics. Robot fingernails! Do they allow add-ons with the second-chance round?

It doesn't matter what email you get, you can purchase any of the sets from any of the emails they send out.

I just woke up and just saw that. Then my short term memory gave me away since I hadn't had my usual coffee and breakfast. Lemme look again for colors: Nellie (pink fuschia creme) and Lacey (midnight blue with purple shimmer)

Thank god for this MUT . I won't have money until next month that might as well be passed the 72 hrs. I guess a mystery box is my only option.

 

[Jac13]

Hmm, I wonder if the Anniversary trio will be in the secret shop.

 

[Rubyriot]

In case anyone's curious, I got the offer for the brown polish for 9.99 and my reason for skipping was because I didn't like the foot...stick thing.

I also skipped because I didn't like the foot stick thing & haven't even gotten an email.

I did get a Fiore email last week before I got this email for a double polishes. Wonder if its a squence and maybe next email will be the trio?

That's the one I got.

Grabbed Veronica with my beauty bio code, since that's one color I didn't have a close dupe for - the champagne trio was tempting but just get the feeling they'll be too close to the other Julep metallics. Might see if I can get the glitter only in one of the swap groups!
