I don't understand how "every 3 months" got confused for "every month"?

Got started late on this, but now I know I have more time to wait until the brooches leave. Maybe I'll be able to get more donuts and help some people out. :D


I don't think you should worry too much about your English, Firn. Many people have trouble explaining things even with English as their native language. I think the best way to explain it would be to use your example below. c:

The next item, the Hanging Flowers will leave the Caravan in 3 months, so in March 2017 and will be replaced by another new item. There will be an announcement notifying you about this in time, in February. After this, the next item, the Patricia Brooch, will leave in June 2017 and so on. I hope now everything is clear.
There will always be one item leaving every 3 months. There will also always be a notification in time, in the month in which the item will be available for the last time, so that people can try to get it in time.
