Agreed wholeheartedly. This also contradict with what the customer service reps have been preaching, that regardless of the boutiques we've shopped at or only through e-boutique, it doesn't really matter because 'we're just one big family'...But then Glen Coco got all the candy canes while some got none

I barely made the cut in Paris but then I wouldn't have been offered one this year if I didn't already have a trip planned plus I had to call customer service rep multiple times to get in contact with the Paris boutique in order to get on the list, tentatively, because as I was told, no stock until November. This whole HP offering is so bizarre.
