==Criticism==
This sale was criticized by many users for being heavily underwhelming due to essentially only offering expensive items, as well as there being a lack of items in general. Some believed that Roblox was trying to promote UGC accessories by publishing less official items for the sale in order to draw more attention to UGC discounts. Contempt for the sale can be seen in replies to tweets posted on their Twitter account around the time of the sale.
==Trivia==
*Every official item sold during the sale became limited after their timers expired.
**This may be part of a pattern with new variants of popular series, as a few weeks earlier the Dominus Formidulosus also became limited shortly after its timer expired.
*4 days before the sale began, Roblox posted an official description of the sale to the Microsoft Store version of the Roblox app.https://web.archive.org/web/20191126052014/https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/roblox/9nblgggzm6wm
**Roblox also did so with the previous major sale, Labor Day 2019.
