Serenade Sale

Post by rtomek » June 13th, 2017, 4:02 pm

Amazon is selling serenade for $7.49 a bottle after shipping, with 'damaged packaging'. I was able to add a bunch of bottles to my cart, so it's not just a single item at that price.

I decided to take the chance on it. I'm hoping this is new, still effective Serenade.

Amazon Warehouse appears to be a legit division of Amazon, and the deal is accessible by typing the web address for Amazon into the search bar and then searching for Serenade. The price is down to 7.07 now.

How do you see how much they have left?

Thanks, rtomek, for posting, btw.

It tells you how many are left when you add it to your cart. I picked up 2 and it says there are 9 left now.

Thanks rtomek!

Looks like the deal is over now...it must've all sold.

I received mine just now. The lot # is: LJEL000622. In comparison, the bottle I bought at my local garden center a month ago is: LJEL000895. Does that mean the Amazon stuff is older and should be used first?

I'd love to see if anyone answers your question, and then ask them how they could possibly know the answer.

Call the Bayer customer hotline if you want a real answer.

I don't know and don't plan to know or to even look at my labels, but I do plan to use the Amazon Warehouse bottles first just to hedge my bets.

Good idea. Maybe I will.

Anyone else used theirs yet? I only have one other bottle to compare to, but the stuff inside the first of three bottles I bought on Amazon is a bit different than the one I bought locally. The Amazon one is definitely smellier...kind of putrid. I think it also might be slightly darker in color, and a bit more watery maybe.

I used two of the AW sale bottles this evening. Looked and smelled just like the bottles I purchased earlier in the year.

I'm not sure what it means but the 2 I received are from lot # LJEL000765. Nothing appears damaged or defective with them to me.

Mine were exactly the same as I usually use too, except that the back labels all had a top corner bent about 1/4". Could have happened during shipping but I could see people complaining about selling that as new. My lot number is the same as agn, which is higher than the last of my bottles from two years ago.

I used one of my bottles last week.

No noticeable difference in the smell/consistency.

Bottle had a small dent in it (as if you were to take off the cap, squeeze a bit of air out of the bottle, then re-cap it).

Everything else checked out!

Every bottle I've seen has a small depression in it in the same place, which makes me think it's part of the design.
