Please extend the Amazon campaign.

The old one was 2/3rds longer, which was much more reasonable. It gave us time for our paychecks to come through, and wait until our most financially stable week. Time cards don't matter as much when you're on a subscription. Twenty dollars is still a lot of money when you're a college student. The least we could have is the same amount of time as last time, that way everyone won't have to drop everything to do it. I would be much better off in two weeks, but it ends.

I'm guessing they want to be done with the promos by the time SB launches. And there's still EU promo they must do.

Preorder something if you want it that bad, that way you don't need to pay for something for a while.

That is good advice, but I wish I didn't have to resort to that.

You can pre order something if you can't pay for something within the time given, Amazon doesn't take the money until the item is shipped/released.

just preorder stormblood, haha

If you're short on cash for two weeks, either make sacrifices to allow you to afford the items if they're that important to you or suck it up.

It's called being a functional adult.

You could just use a credit card. And then pay off that 20 bucks when you do get paid

Be thankful you actually have the opportunity to easily obtain the promotion items in the first place, unlike the majority of European and Oceanic players who were screwed over the first time around due to multiple dire issues. Whilst it's unfortunate that you don't have the cash to spare at the moment you have the option to pre-order something as other posters have pointed out. You could sell something, too, such as old games that you no longer play or furniture that you no longer use to make some quick money in a pinch. Then take that to your bank and use it to order something that qualifies for the promotion.

Yes please extend the promotion to the EU

I think pre-orders getting a code instantly is a random glitch. I too wouldn't have the funds until after the offer ended so I pre-ordered Stormblood just make sure I got the items eventually. A FC mate did the same, I got a key instantly and he hasn't yet.

If you get worked up over virtual items and your budget is so small that $20 will break you, maybe people should sit out the game or lobby SE to lower their prices.

It's confirmed they'll make their way to the Mogstation eventually.

I just got back from a con week. Cons are brutal on your wallets.

Most people get paid bi-weekly (especially college kids considering they're most likely working grunt jobs). So that alone should net you a paycheck in time. Not to mention as the others have said, there's pre-orders. I echo the adult sentiment. You're going to have to learn to save and reorganize your priorities better. That's life. They're going to the mog station eventually anyways so it's a moot point anyways.
