Is the Dragon Forge still free?

I've still got the "Buy any new release and get Dragon Forge free" box at the top of the store page, but when I put it in the basket with a couple of new releases, each more than $3, Dragon Forge still shows $3.90. The new releases are not released just today, but they do have New across the top of their promo pics so I suppose they should count.

Has the offer expired and they haven't taken it off the page yet? Or is it only for today's new releases? Or is the shop going wrong again?

    I just checked my cart, the dragon forge shows at 3.90$ too and it used to show as free over the week-end. So my guess would be that the offer expired.

    I got mine with a pretty old "new release", from like 3 weeks ago, FWIW.

    The box is still in the rotating offers on the shop page, but the message which I had about it has disappeared from my account Messages, so I suspect that means the offer is over (I already picked Dragon Forge up free a few days ago, but the message only disappeared this morning).
    ETA: Aha! I discovered that I printed out the message when it first appeared and it had an end date (See below) - so it looks like it IS a case of the rotating banner not being kept up-to-date (which has happened several times now)

    Thank you for that. I looked carefully at the box on the store page and it doesn't have an end date. even in very small print. I suppose they do that to encourage people to buy stuff now, limited time but we're not telling you how long, but it is annoying.

    I just checked and the banner doesn't seem to be there - if you are still seeing it do a forced refresh to make sure it isn't just a cached copy.

    It's gone now. When I posted the original message I had tried shift+refresh and it was still there then.
