How to get a bottle

It's one bottle per person, first come, first served. Here's everything to do, in order. Read it straight through, or switch to the checklist to tick steps off as you go; it's saved on this device.

Open the Monster Mash product page (opens in a new tab)

Sale opens in 5 days, 21 hours

Opens

Set up your accounts now

Start with the product page, and bookmark it. The sale runs on Still Austin's separate pickup store, which asks for your email before it shows you anything, so log in once now and make sure your email works. You don't want to find that out at 12:59 on sale day.

While you're there, set up Shop Pay with your name, address and card saved; Apple Pay and Google Pay also work at checkout. Then set a reminder in DoubleOak: the sale is on the DoubleOak release calendar, and you'll get a notification an hour before it opens.

Have the page open on sale day

On Monday, October 26, have the product page open and be logged in well before the sale, on a charged phone or laptop with a solid connection.

Buy the moment it goes live

At 1 p.m. Central, refresh until you see Add to Cart, and tap it the moment it appears. Then check out right away with Shop Pay, Apple Pay or Google Pay, so you aren't typing card details while the bottles go.

Confirm your order and plan pickup

You've got a bottle when the order confirmation arrives, not before. Pickup starts October 31 at the Still Austin Quarter, and you have 90 days to collect it.

None of this guarantees a bottle. It's how to be ready when the sale opens.

Pickup: no shipping, 90 days to collect

Still Austin can't ship these bottles. If you get one, you pick it up at the Still Austin Quarter in Austin, starting October 31 during normal business hours. That night there's a Halloween party from 6 p.m.

You have 90 days from October 31 to collect it. After that the bottle is forfeited, with no refund. If you can't get to Austin by late January, think twice before you buy.

Get a reminder before the sale

The easiest way to miss the bottle is to forget the date. The Monster Mash sale is on the DoubleOak release calendar: set the reminder on the event and you'll get a notification an hour before it opens.
