Retiring: 3 Premium Badge Albums

by Lura on May 7, 2012 · 11 comments

Haunted Pogo Premium Badge AlbumPogo is retiring three Premium Badge Albums in just a few short hours:

Haunted Pogo (released 10/05/2010)
Pogo Turns 10 (released 09/08/2009)
Winter Wonderland (released 12/07/2010)

It doesn’t look like Pogo will be offering a coupon code or sale for these albums, so if you want them now is the time to purchase. (There are no guarantees, but even if Pogo offers a coupon code or sale during the final hours today, their customer service has historically been very accommodating about giving refunds retroactively.) Do not delay — in the past when Pogo has said an album retires on a certain date, it retired the moment the calendar flips over to that certain date.

Today is your last day to get these retiring albums.

Note: five more albums are going into the vault on May 19th as well. It’s still not clear whether Pogo will have a coupon or sale for these, so stay tuned here for reminders as it gets closer to their retirement date.

Did you buy one of these albums recently? Do you have any favorite hints or tips to share for one of the badges? Share your thoughts and tricks in a comment below.
