Comment by Tolian64Guessing the promotions involve at least one store item, to take advantage of the flash popularity of HC.Comment by arison255Promotions have completely lost their meaning when there's one every week.Comment by dokeefe1986I really hope it's more trader's tender, I mean corsages in the cash shop!Comment by BlizzLeeWe're getting close to the time of year when they put the Blizzcon Virtual Ticket up for sale. It is a little early as it usually goes on sale in September/October time, but I guess we'll find out soon.Comment by ErKo95Promotions have completely lost their meaning when there's one every week.Comment by MarkElfI really hope it's more trader's tender, I mean corsages in the cash shop!Comment by ED209Glad that DOTI HC is in a month, but still miffed that it wasn't released on launch with mythic. To keep parroting myself, all difficulties should always be released simultaneously, especially when it comes to story.

Time is running out to support Ukraine!Comment by EsploratoreAmazon prime thing is a given, as there's one every month; so far the order has been mount, pet, mog, so one would expect some kind of tabard here if they follow the same order, but I'm obviously always worried about mounts, being them the highest value items.

Curiously I haven't seen a toy from amazon prime yet, however we've had a lot of them from twitch drops.

Other possibilities will be another twitch drop since there's not been one in a while, or blizzcon, like someone else said it's about that time of the year.

I was also thinking about another of those mog items for tender, but there's no point announcing one before previous offer is over.Comment by Narhwals"Buy this promotion and get 1 revive in classic hardcore, bundled with 500 Trader Tenders for retail wow!"Comment by FlanellT3 twitch drop please 🤣Comment by StarchaserAmazon prime thing is a given, as there's one every month; so far the order has been mount, pet, mog, so one would expect some kind of tabard here if they follow the same order, but I'm obviously always worried about mounts, being them the highest value items.
