Deluxe Membership

 

Given the current trend of Deluxe Membership promotion, Webkinz Insider members were surprised to learn that the February 2013 Deluxe Gift Item, the Queen of Hearts Gown, is unable to be KinzPosted! .. a move that has left Deluxe Membership account holders puzzled and wondering what this new development may portend!

 

Since the beginning of Deluxe Membership in April of 2009, the Monthly Gift Boxes have been greatly anticipated by Webkinz Insider Deluxe members and the Deluxe Gift has been KinzPostable.

 

Webkinz Insider members are hoping that this is merely a programming error and not a new trend to remove features from Deluxe Membership .. a move which may discourage Webkinz World account holders from 'going Deluxe'.

 

Webkinz Insider members are currently waiting patiently to see if this is indeed an error that will eventually be 'fixed'....  a similar error, perhaps, as was the inability to KinzPost the Sizzling Swan PSI, the Fiery Fountain shown here, when it first became available. The Sizzing Swan PSI  has since been programmed to be KinzPostable.

 

 

Let's congratulate Webkinz Insider member Blythe on the adoption of the new Bedtime Puppy!

 

Here you can see the aptly named Slumberina sitting on the Bedtime Puppy's Pet Specific Item, the Pizza Party Perch. The Bedtime Puppy's Pet Special Food is the BFF Buttery Popcorn.

 

The Bedtime Puppy is a virtual pet and part of the Deluxe Only series of pets.  It is available to the Deluxe Advantage eStore customers for the entire month of March only. Normally it will sell for 12,500 points; but for March 1st only, it is available for the reduced price of 10,000 points. 

 

 

Let's all say Congrats to kawee on their adoption of their Sleepy Woodland Dragon. Here were can see them pictured next to their Pet Specific Item: Cedar Toy Trunk. We have seen this item in December when there was a glitch and this Pet Specific Item was award to the Cotton Candy Puppy. kawee received this code via email congratting them their one year renewal, yet they never renewed. So check your emails to see if there is a code waiting from you from GANZ as others have reported getting this dragon code also.

 

*UPDATE*  Webkinz Newz has clarified its position on the awarding of this coveted virtual pet by email to members.  Every week until April 9, 2012, 100 Ganz eStore Deluxe members will receive an email with the code for the Sleepy Woodland Dragon.  Deluxe members will have a chance to win the dragon whether they have a 1 month or 1 year Deluxe account and will be chosen randomly.

 

Good luck! and don't forget to check your email folder, including your spam or deleted folder as Ganz emails often end  up being automatically sent there.

Thank you to Webkinz Insider member cheree31 for pointing out something very interesting that she spotted in the latest CandyKinz eStore advertisement.  As you can see in the pictures above, there are four never-before-seen pets peeking out from behind the Deluxe and eStore logos.  

 

Could these be the four CandyKinz pets that are going to round out the collection?  As soon as any more news on these mystery pets is made available we will bring it to you here.

We are receiving widespread reports of a glitch affecting Deluxe accounts in Webkinz World this morning, and in a surprise twist, the Deluxe players are happy about it!  

 

It appears that most Deluxe accounts that were supposed to receive a Deluxe Gift Box for July has received two, and Deluxe accounts that were not supposed to receive any Box at all have received one!  It looks like we are going to see a lot of pets dressed in Fire Queen Robes this month.
