Maybe the "granting requests" for the October kit is less pink! {one can hope...}
It's probably just that they will include the descriptions of what will be in the kits. Or an alpha with more than one letter.
I'm curious what the fan favorite product is that they've brought back.

Lord knows I have a thousand better things to do with my time- but if the baby is napping, I just might have to pop in for the chat tomorrow morning. I would love to see who from SC has the guts to show up (or who they throw to the wolves) and if people use the opportunity to get some answers or at least try. I know I have been trying to get an answer about the "spring" handbook release for 6 months now and would like some sort of response from them since they sucked me into using those albums this year.

So I got an order today from A Cherry on Top. I wanted and will use every bit of it. It was easy to shop there. I have $10 worth of points built up. My package shipped in a timely manner. Nothing was missing. I am excited to use it all and had a positive experience.
Just sayin'.
Oh, I also read over at SC (which I haven't been doing since I cleared my gallery) and was shocked to find that rewards subscribers are not getting a stamp set for sticking with their stationery sub if they didn't have rewards because of their card kit. Unbelievable. That was not obvious from the way they offered it. I wonder how many people paid for that kit thinking they were getting a special stamp. Ends up they are getting an overstock stamp or no stamp at all. "NO stamp for YOU!" (said in the soup Nazi voice.)
I am so glad to have moved on.

Ali's DD albums are 6x8 and come with 31 pages. I'm buying a couple to use other than for DD. It's a great buy and you don't have to hold your breath waiting for SC. |

They have 6 rings. Only downfall to that is they don't ship til November sometime. But I'd be shocked if SC's were available before then. |

And the stamp is just an old 4x6 stamp set from the store, not a new one. I got the impression it was a new stamp set designed for them. I obviously read it wrong, and not being a subber I wasn't invested, but I did get the impression that it was something new, not an old stamp they had around the warehouse. |

Abr79, where you still a subber when banned? I don't honestly believe they banned you for being here- I would be banned too, don't you think? Maybe it was a combo of posting both here and there, I did stop posting over there altogether, so maybe that is why I haven't been punished? I mean I have been pretty vocal about my distaste for April and the fact that I think she is a narcissistic twit over here and I haven't been banned. I a not saying you deserved banning at all, because I absolutely don't think you did, but I think it got have been they were more afraid of what you were going to say over there.

So did I @skellinton. Seems like things run so flippantly over there.

And this thread is probably getting way more attention than anything over at the dead SC boards now. If anything, SC did themselves a disservice by banning two eloquently speaking and thought provoking people and giving them the freedom to speak more openly over here. |

Also, did anyone see the photo on Baby Boy Bakery's IG? She's standing at a table chopping up fruits and veggies and said it was for her collab with SC. I'm on my phone otherwise I'd post a link.
it's curious, though This one: http://instagram.com/p/75iHWJt3Ms I went back and looked at the post about the collab and it looks like it's some kind of monthly recipe book/album sub maybe for kids or involving kids so some kind of promo for that? |

abr79 Are you actually banned? I clicked on your name by a comment and your profile looks normal, complete with followers and your projects.

Wow. Only one SB and PL add on kit this month. I guess people are, indeed, talking with their wallets. I don't doubt people are talking with their wallets but I believe this was the plan. They are gradually reducing their offerings so that by January, they will only be selling main kits like ABM and Ali. And I also believe that the rewards program will be a thing of the past. October's kits were planned at least six months ago, long before they announced the changes and all of the mistakes occurred. |

Even if this was the plan, I wonder if people will really be ok with it. It all is fishy...not surprising, but sad none the less.

I think we can all agree there isn't much SC has going on under the smart category.  |

Now I agree that it is making it easier to cancel them all. I think the writing is on the wall for Rewards, too. |

It seems a good number of people who want to continue with SC will opt for the month-to-month so they don't have the steep penalties over their heads. Question is will switching to month-to-month void your rewards status? Has SC clarified that? |

I know a lot of yall didn't like rob boye, but I did like him. He wasn't a miracle worker, but I think he learned fast and hard how f'ed up Studio Calico can be, so he got out of there. I'd LOVE to hear his side.
ETA: That comment looks like it came from left field. I was reading the above linked thread where he addresses rewards status.

Dear Studio Calico:
Are you gonna rock it out for us this month, SC?
Computer glitches debugged?
Promo codes in working order?
Contests on the up and up?
Shipping issues sorted out?
Convo turnaround time up to standard?
1-800 number installed so we can speak with a real person?
Kits filled out with a little more product?
Videos in focus so we can see the product?
No misleading photos containing product that isn’t actually included?
Or are you too busy catering to the needs of the more important sectors of your ever-expanding empire?
Love, ZaZu
