Nope, not acting weird, the big bottles weren't there in the drop down for me this afternoon, hopin' they're not pullin' them for Friday :unsure:

Me too - that seems like it'd be a weird move. However, it *would* be a very smart move to yank the 236ml bottles from now *until* Friday, to keep the post-cinnamon-panic people from eating into the large bottle supply and thereby potentially leaving them short of 236ml bottles for Black Friday..... so maybe that's what's going on.

Nope not there. Bet they did pull 'em.
I think they are holding out on us. I can't get 236 on mine either.

MBV has run out of the 236ml bottles before...maybe they pulled the option because they just don't have the bottles???

That or takin' 20% of an already discounted (by volume) product would not be cost beneficial, just sayin'...

That was my first thought, but considering the big sale coming up, I doubt they'd be so short-sighted - surely 236ml is the most popular "stock up on ADVs" size during a big sale, no?

But if you *combine* the demand on the 236ml bottles for Black Friday with the demand for them from people who are still freaked about their cinnamon vapes disappearing and tried to order 236ml bottles the instant they went live again "just in case," *that* might have led to a bottle shortage, or at least is a bottle shortage in the making. I'm hoping pulling them was a pro-active measure instead of another oops moment. :)

I would guess if someone actually asks MBV, they would explain the lack of 236ml...IIRC, they always have :)

For the DIYers, about how many ml will a bottle of flavor make? I'm too tired to do math right now.

My Ambien response to you is 'a bunch' sorry. Ambien kicking in but not ready for sleep yet. So this should be weird.

Well, 16oz + 5 flavor shots for $39.99 + $12 shipping is still better than the $42 I usually pay for 236ml with 5 flavor shots, so I am good regardless.

I would feel weird with a 236ml bottle. The entire time I had it I would be thinking 'hope my taste buds don't change' or that bottle is going to be a tower of fail over NY 50ml bottles. Annnd I just found out the wife did not mail seanchai's surprise yet. I will have to make sure it gets done Friday or Monday.
