I’ve been bad! My copy of the Twice Year of Yes album arrived in the mail weeks ago, and I completely forgot to post the unboxing! My bad guys! It’s here now though! Although Twice Year of Yes album is not a full repackage of Yes or Yes, they did add 2 new tracks as a Christmas gift for their fans, as well as a completely revamped winter style photobook for fans.
I ordered a copy of the album from an eBay seller in Korea. This is a link to the exact one I’ve ordered. I got this copy for $25.39 plus free shipping. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the E-Bates extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
What is E-Bates?
E-Bates is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Ebates, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over 80$ back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used EBates before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using EBates. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Sokoglam typically has 3%. These percentages Many other major retailers are on there as well.
Can I get it on Amazon?
Yes! You can pick up a copy using this link here for about 26 dollars (not as good of a deal), with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can get a 30-day free trial using this link here. I will not lie, the free 2-day shipping, plus all of the free music and videos are totally worth it. I also now use it for books for my Kindle Paper White too, and it is honestly a life saver. They have a program called Kindle Unlimited where you can check out 10 books at a time, read them, and put them back in the Kindle library. The program cost $7.99 a month, and you get the first 30 days for free with this link.

K-Points: 38/5
There are a few things that I really like about this album, and then one thing that really bothers me, because I’m a bit OCD. So, I love the outfits the girls are wearing in this album. They’re very Turn of the century. I also love how there is an envelope and an insert for you to pop the photo cards into. On top of that, there is a big notch for you to pull the CD out. Despite all that, I have one complaint that I think of every time I see the album: I hate how to front cover is horizontal, and then everything else on the album is vertical. It really bothers me, and I’m docking points for that. They should have made it all one direction.
Despite that. should you get yourself a copy of this album? If you like Twice, and didn’t get yourself a copy of Yes or Yes?, I would say go for it. If you did, just stream the two new songs on the album. They were a cute, special present to Twice’s fandom, ONCE, and it really wasn’t too shabby! It doesn’t get stuck in my head like Likey, but I still enjoy it.
