Does anyone have any idea when one of the new Premium Books will be released?
Not a clue..Sorry
me either,but some1 will let us know when they find out O0
the new book is not even out for preview on other sites yet <:>
It seems like they come out every 3 months or so, I wish they would hurry up, lol :///
Don't think it will be released in the month of October , since we've already passed the 14th, and thats the date for all new releases. :)))
Just Kidding..havent a clue, but hope its soon :///
the 14th
In addition to seeking out and destroying all cheaters, Pogo is changing their release dates to the 1st 14th of every month ending in R and the 3rd 14th of every other month - just to keep us on our toes.
Everything comes out on the 14th :pp
according to Homer, it is not untill Feb, 14th Tara
not in Feb :)) but any month on the 14 has to be 14th no other date and if it does will call that date the 14th :))
Heres some info a little mouse game me.

I hear ya there I just did 16 of them a little over a week a go to catch them up, that one sounds strange... can we even do a case over?
Yes you can do a case over. What is posted is the new premium books that we get to pick and choose what we want in them. That's why there are so many weird looking ones.
ahh tks the mix and match ones gottcha

Thank you (((((Tara)))))
I do not buy the premium books so I dont have to worry about them... YET that is lol
Those badges listed are some of the badges available in the mix and match badge album that you buy with the new pogo gems for 10-18 gems per challange.
thats the new book called custom album we have it at the test site 25 badges in it <:>
can't pogo come up with some nicer badges for albums? (O+O)
thats just an idea of how you can build your custom album you build it with your pogo gems you buy like 350 for 19.99 or you can buy pogo mini stuff in the gems store and buy albums with them etc... pogo is gonna make a mint off this new stuff <:>
ok here you all go there are 3 new albums comin out card masters 8 challenges 4 game sampler and mix n match which you build your self with gems card masters 4.99 4 game sampler 2.99 you can also save 10% with gems mix n match starts at 10 gems per challenge and a new game called hog heaven slots with ranks and badges lol <:>
Thanks for all the info Mama...not sure I understand the gem stuff to much but I can't wait for new books.
Thanks mama for the info have any ideals when it will be out oh well cant wait for it but maybe the 14 dont ask me what month just the 14 :))

Choose Your Own Challenges!
Okay, this album is like no other, I see 25 challenges (maybe the ones I posted before). It appears you must use gems to buy these challenges. There is no where to buy with cash. You can select themes for your album. Basically for the themes you can pick the art on the left or right side of the page. there are 5 options for each side (Garden of Badges, Pogo Scrapbook, Premium Album, Travel Scrapbook, & Wild West).
The way this badge is setup appears to give the idea that pogo can add more premium badges at anytime. I think this badge album will be a growing one.
Each badge is either 12 or 18 gems.
Cost of Gems
80 Gems $4.99
170 Gems $9.99 (says it includes 10 bonus Gems) (not sure if that is included in 170 or it equals 180)
350 Gems $19.99 (says it includes 30 bonus Gems)
So I see it this way:
80 Gems $4.99 = 6.2cents/gem
170 Gems $9.99 = 5.9cents/gem
350 Gems $19.99 = 5.7cents/gem
So......
12 Gem badge cost $0.68 to $0.74
18 Gem Badge cost $1.03 to $1.12
There are four 18 Gem badges and twenty-one 12 Gem badges.
SO.....
The cost for the entire album is between $18.40 and $20.02 depending on which gem packages you buy.
Which is between $0.73 and $0.80 per badge (average)
"What's Your Sign" Badge Album was $6.99 for 12 badges.
That is $0.58 per badge.
I figure these gems are just a trick by pogo to confuse people on how much they are paying for things. Even on the best buy gem buy this is a 25% raise in the cost for a premium badge.
ty for the info runner O0
tks for the info runner sounds like you did your investigating lol O+O

Thanks for showing all that and explaining. I guess if you want the badges (which most of us do) you're better going with the 19.99. I just wonder if they will be doing the books like that from now on, meaning, I wouldn't want to buy all the books available and be stuck with extra gems. I know I won't pay for mini stuff.
There will no doubt be lots of questions from members really confused, with no one to explain it like Runner, thanks
More Info
Card Master Premium Badge Album is $4.99 or 72 Gems
72 Gems $4.10 to $4.46 save $0.89 to $0.53
4-Game Sample Premium Badge Album is $2.99 or 43 Gems
43 Gems $2.45 to $2.67 save $0.54 to $0.32
The Mix and Match Album is 324 Gems
SOOOO for all 3 badge albums you need 439 Gems
So the best route is to buy 1(one) $19.99 package (350 Gems) and buy 1(one) $4.99 package (80 Gems)
This gives you a total of 430 Gems.
SO use Gems to buy the Mix n Match Album (324 Gems) and the Card master Album (72 Gems) and Pay CASH for the 4-Game Sampler Album ($2.99)
This leaves you 34 Gems to spend on whatever.
See Pogo made it so if you buy the Gem packages to get close to the albums you are 9 GEMS short. This was on purpose to make you buy another package for nothing.
I guess if you get real technical the best buy for your money is to buy the 19.99 package and pay cash for the rest .. This would only leave 26 gems leftover)
And if you save those gems for when they release more badges (thus not wasting them on your mini) you can buy 1 or 2 badges depending on cost.
I think Pogo is getting greedy!
This is getting confusing. :-\ I rather just pay for the damn books like we have been. Your right Runner, because of the 9 short its only a way for them to make you buy some more gems that can be used on your mini as far as we know.
Well, phooey!

Well how is having the extra gems going to hurt anything when they are coming out with new badges for the mix and match albums every month?
I think Pogo is giving 20 gems to all members to start out with for free...of course its just another way to get us to buy more of the gems for premiums and minis
I think the premium books will come out right before Thanksgiving around lets say the 14th... :))) The reason I think that is, one of the super badges is coming out then.
That gives us enuf time to buy them before Thanksgiving. Need something to keep us awake after the turkey!(https://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k72/florida62/thanksgiving/thanksg_smilie8.jpg)
hey runner that is real good work your doin there but are you forgetting that we read already that ogo is givin g us 20 gems to get us started..that is just out of the goodness of their little hearts..bless them..for getting more money out of us badge hogs...hoe it not fool u your calculations....... :;'
Some more info.....
Appears that the badges in the mix-n-match album will have expiration dates.
(like limited time mini stuff)
