Keeping up with Mix-N-Match badges

[Ebonite]

Wow! 15 new Mix-N-Match badges for December which comes out to 240 gems. Plus the 'Gift of Fun' album that just came out for 58 gems and the 2008 Christmas Limited Edition Badge for 28 gems gives us a grand total of 326 gems for the month of December.

I remember a time when six or eight Mix-N-Match badges would come out every month (at a lower price, BTW), and an album would come out every couple of months at most. Now with 15 new badges a month, an album a month and a special badge for every holiday, I've gone from buying 350 gems every three months to now having to buy 350 gems every month just to keep up.

Hmm... The yearly fee plus $20 a month for a site that I can't even win anything on because of using autos. I'm gonna have to think about this.......

I like badges just as any gal does, but I wait until they are almost expired ( I know its a long wait but I still get them all at a lower price) because then the price drops down to 10 gems instead of 16 gems.  Yes, they are getting a little crazy with their pricing.  But they figure plenty of peeps are going to buy them so they make a profit either way.  That's just what this gal does and this is only my opinion.  Happy pogoing.
