Thanks for letting me know it's on sale @itscarin that's a great price!

[blackkitty2014]

Thx for posting @skittlesrharaam . Estimated value = $12.86.  Not a huge value but i love the powder.  This is perfect for travel. 🙂 @MissPuff 

[SoraDixie]

Ohh that’s true, it’s about 7.94 grams, not ounces.

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014   I knew I should have paid more attention in Algebra...:) 

Anyway, what a great promo!

[gymgirl2]

@blackkitty2014 - Where'd you find the estimated value? Asking b/c the CT sample is about 1/10 the size of a full-size Powder, so the value really should be more like $4.50.

[blackkitty2014]

@gymgirl2 , @Ispend2much6  ya I didn’t pay attention to g vs oz. darn it! It’s around $4. Powder for ants again lol 😂 

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014   LOL!  Me too.  It's Charlotte's fault; we love her products so much we just go crazy at the idea of getting a free one. 🙂

[blackkitty2014]

I know right @Ispend2much6 

[Lazybeautybeast]

Dang it! I wish I hadn't seen this. 🤷

[itsfi]

Ooh, thank you @skittlesrharaam! 😃

@MissPuff, have you seen this?

[MissPuff]

@itsfi Wooooah, thanks for the tag! I did NOT see that, but now I can't unsee it...what to buy...what to buy 🙂 

[MissPuff]

@Ispend2much6 , @blackkitty2014  , @eshoe  travel sizes are my nemesis!!! And now that @Ispend2much6  has practically filled my basket... 😍😍😍

[Ispend2much6]

@MissPuff   If you're not going to walk away, may I ask if you've ever tried these:

Or, one of the new Bobbi Brown Crushed Liquid Lip colors?  $26!  The perfect amount.

[eshoe]

You can walk away, @MissPuff, you can... 😂

[Ispend2much6]

Wow!  It's nearly 1/3 of the full size, which is 0.28 oz.  

[SoraDixie]

People are getting grams and ounces mixed up.

[Ispend2much6]

I tried to Google this on a "compare fractions calculator" to see what was up.

The decimals can convert to 4/5 (0.8) and 7/25 (0.28) after they are reduced. 

So, if I make them equivalent fractions, with the common denominator of 25, then that would mean the 0.8 g size (sample) would be greater than the full size of 0.28 g.  
The sample size must be off?  

If not, then I am going to request a refund from my kids' college and private school tuition because they are taking advanced math courses and they told me that is how to figure this out. lol

@Ispend2much6 

It's a problem of oz vs g. Full size is 0.28oz per the product page, but the sample is 0.8g. There are roughly 30g in an ounce, so you can use that to convert them both to the same unit of measurement first.

30 x 0.28 = roughly 8.4g for the full size, making the 0.8g sample about 10% of the full size.

[Ispend2much6]

@RGbrown   Yep; the old "grams versus ounces" trick. 🙂  I lose my mind at the idea of a free CT product, no matter the size. 🙂  At least my math method would have been correct if the measurement types were the same. 

[creasedshadow]

The full size is 0.28 oz or 8g, not 0.28 g.

[gymgirl2]

@Ispend2much6 - Just FYI, it's not 1/3 of the full-size. It's only about 1/10, assuming the promo info of 0.8g is correct.
