    Can you elaborate? I have an account on their site - but it still makes me type in the credit card every time. Appreciate any info

    Here’s the shop link: https://shop.app/

    If you create an account, next time you check out from SP it should load all your info (name, billing address, cc, etc.) so all you have to do is click the purple button at bottom. May be worth doing a trial run - put something in your cart, checkout but don’t actually purchase

    With other sites using the same shop system, you’ll get a code via text that you need to enter - will do the same thing ie load all your info

    am sure someone can explain that more succinctly - gl next time!

    I usually don't go for the packages but made an exception for this one. I loved generational and the three additional bottles are appealing to me.

    I remember when that was supposed to happen, but have given up that hope. At this point I’m just not going to buy any sours in single bottles cause they will inevitably end up in package.

    Random surprise drops are wack as fuck for bottles like this. Can’t lie that I’m super salty about this one. Oh well, on to the next one.

    There were about 100 packages.

    If they had announced it everybody would still be complaining.

    There were more than 100 left when I'd finished checking out (I think it was like 180?) but either way definitely not enough packages that they could have done an announced time for release

    I think there will always be a few sides and opinions to this. Maybe/likely @KevSal is correct and there wasn’t enough to make an official release versus the surprise one.

    If it’s an official/timed release and it’s gone in seconds, then it’s a gripe-fest. Or, what about those that work, can’t access their phone, etc., etc.

    For me, if it’s a surprise and I miss it, oh well. A lot easier to get over because I didn’t have to scramble for it. If it’s a surprise and I get through, then that’s elation. A bit of luck too.

    If it’s an official/timed release and I miss out, I’m less bothered too since everyone was gearing up for it and my chances were a lot less anyways. If It hit, great, but also a bit of luck.

    Bottom line: you win some and you lose some. That’s how I’ve come to deal with FOMO in my advancing years.

    EDIT: had this reply for when Darwin originally posted, but didn't post and before Heisenbrew/bread_c info on package total info.
