You get 1 Gift Pack to send for every $10 worth of Credits you purchased before June 1st of this year. I purchased $25 worth of Credits, therefore I had 2 Gift Packs to exchange with people! :)
HA! so it is. I have all my Glitch email automatically sent to a folder, so I didn't realize there was something other than entertaining skills-learned messages there. thanks Millie!
GiaTora---alpha players who purchased credits in the Wardrobe during the alpha phase got them recently. It sort of reminds me when Flickr gave subscribers free subs to give away (but I seem to remember that was done to mollify them for some reason). It's a nice gift too-- each pack contains a one month subscription and 100 credits.
@La_La Not just Alpha players. Any players that bought credits before June 1, 2011.
From the page to buy credits:
"June 1, 2011: The "free gifts for friends" offer (100-packs of credits and a month of subscription to give away) is no longer available."
