    The game has changed now. King seems to be dishing out many very hard level but at the same time dishing out lots of boosters by way of sugar drops. Build up sugar drops and then use them on levels. Tactic is to start to use them when a game is going well. Don't wait until you need one or two boosters to finish off a game, but sieze an opportunity when you are doing well and use the hand-swap or lollipop to make that game even better. I use them to manouvre a wrapped next to a stripe to blast some jelly away or to create a colour bomb next to a stripe. That way you should find yourself nearly finishing a level more often, then you can use a lollipop hammer or hand swap to finish off.

    This is all a lot easier now that a full set of boosters can be obtained by just 180 sugar drops. Sugar drops are easy to collect now that there are lists around of "good" levels to earn drops.

    They have changed the sugar drops now I can only try and collect them once on each level I am on if I am stuck I cant go back and try and get sugar drops on other levels :( So I am soon using them up if I need to use them. I lost most of mine on that stupid level. I have now moved a couple times but got to 180 sugar drops so have to wait 8 hours again for more.

    Sorry tweets....whilst I posted the Alba trial for the wipes I didnt actually apply as I really am trying hard to use up everything I have...

    so I cant answer the question on what should be received directly...however I do know that the wipes are split into several trials and not everyone has the same
    There should be a sticker on the back of the wipes where the barcode is to tell you which order to use them in and a small leaflet should be enclosed to give all the instructions.

    the trial number should be the same on both packs...and will say week 1 on one pack and week 2 on the other

    If not I would drop them an email

    I have rang them and talked to the answerphone. I have done loads trials for them and never had a trial like this showing you what it is and no correspondence with them.

    I have done a few where you know what the product is...but they do try not to do that as sometimes it influences peoples opinions but occasionally packaging cant always be masked up to hide what it is...

    Is there not a sticker over the packs barcode that has any information on?

    I am just baffled both packs are exactly the same product and I have got no letter in the jiffy but will test them .
