I think, even if you think everything else is shady, pointing to the fact that Michele includes FREEBIES with *every* package (not just the lost/late/missing items ones) as something that is somehow inherently wrong is just blatantly ridiculous!!

She doesn't, actually, include freebies with every package. I've gotten one from her with no freebies at all. They're free, I didn't complain. But, she does not throw something in for every order.

Just FYI.

I've ordered from H&EE. Some of her scents work for me, some don't. Happens with every company, and Michele's is no different in that regard.

I weigh in now and then when I have something to say. Sometimes I just watch and shake my head.

I, personally, could continue to believe the Punani/Underpants thing was coincidence without the addition of Thirteen. If she had a blend from 1991, as she claims, that was called Thirteen, why didn't she market it earlier? I'm sure that her business has been around since at least January, when the Friday the 13th before this one occured, hasn't it?

The fact that she gives out "upgrades" bugs me too. I haven't done any study of those who've received them vs. those who've complained about the company. I have a feeling it would be interesting if I did, but I don't know that for a fact, so I can only surmise.

But I really take issue with the sneaking around and trying to lie about whether she had a duplicate account or not. I shouldn't be surprised that people think the mods would make that up around here, but I am.

All of this came to light right about the same time that I made arrangements for a final bottle from H&EE. Had it happened before, I wouldn't have bothered. As it is, I won't be supporting her company with my money any longer.

Thanks for putting this post together, f_s.
