Your Friday Hunt Report

It’s Friday… time once again to have an in-depth review of all the hunts going on across the Second Life grid. There’s some great hunts out there, and a whole weekend to run around and score some great gifts. If I wasn’t working this weekend (I always work weekends in the ER), I’d be right out there hunting too. Ah well… there’s always Monday. *wink*

If you haven’t tried a hunt yet, then you should! Stores have a lot of free (or nearly free) “hunt objects” lying around. All you have to do is follow some hints to find them. There’s some great articles at FabFree and HUNT SL to help get you started.

Here’s a pretty comprehensive list of the hunts that are currently in progress. Just poke the hunt names for more information. Here’s hoping you have a fun weekend of hunting.

Hello Spring

I’m still up to my knees in Canadian snow in RL, but it’s springtime at It All Starts With A Smile in Second Life!

I have several free items to share with you, and I have no idea where to start!  Lets start with this great outfit…  You can find the Pepper Outfit that includes the pencil skirt and blouse in a beautiful, springy shade of sky blue as a free group gift at FA Creations.  This group is free to join.

The skin I am in today is the latest group gift from Morphine (formerly Mirror’s Enigma).  She’s called Lauren and comes in a medium skin tone in two makeup variations (blush and matte, shown below), along with cleavage and eyebrow options as well as appliers for Lola, Lush & Phat Azz.  To obtain this free gift, you must be a Morphine inworld group member.  If you are not a member, simply make a purchase in store, and you will be auto invited to join.

These hot Screw Handcuffs were sent out as a free subscribe gift to Pure Poison subscribers recently, and my Slink Nail Appliers are also free!  In the Envie marketplace store you can find a Limited Time Freebie that contains three colours in a hud for both toenails and fingernails.

Have fun shopping!

Your Friday Hunt Report (Part 2)

Yes, I know Friday is over, but as I reported on Thursday in Your Friday Hunt Report (Part 1) there were so many hunts ending on Friday and starting on Saturday, it was best to split your report in two. A whole big squadron of hunts fired up their engines today, March 1st, and there is something for everyone. What a mix of themes. I’m sure you can find a hunt to love.

Hunts are a great way to pick up lots of free (or nearly free) stuff from all over the grid. They’re like scavenger games where you follow clues and look for “hunt objects” full of goodies at various stores. Hunts are good fun and you’ll discover a lot of merchants in Second Life that you might not have seen before. There are some tips at FabFree and HUNT SL to help get you started.

So here’s the hunts. I’ve marked the ones starting today in red. Simply tap the names to get more information.

Your Friday Hunt Report (Part 1)

Yes, I know it’s not Friday… yet… but there are SO many hunts ending on February 28th that I thought I’d give ya’ll an extra day just in case you want to bag any of them before they end.

Hunts are a great way to pick up lots of free (or nearly free) stuff from all over the grid.

It’s A BLOKC Party @ The Wash Cart Sale

The Wash Cart Sale is underway and runs until March 25th!  Being the first day, there are still a few carts setting up, but most are good and ready with plenty of under 10L jewels to be found.  There are even some free gifts!  Today I am featuring items from the BLOKC Cart, and they really are fabulous!    I’m soaking up some sun at Wizardhat Studios in the BLOKC Snake Midi Skirt & Crop Top which are available at 10L a piece.

Above:  BLOKC Snake Midi Skirt & Snake Crop Top (10L each)

I needed to show you a closer shot too, because the very realistic snakeskin texturing is amazing!

Love the hair I am wearing today?  This is one of TRUTH Hair’s latest releases called Haters.  I think it’s my favourite ever, but every time he releases a new one – I say the same thing lol.  It even comes with the fun texture change headband shown below.  It’s available at the mainstore now!

You’ll have to excuse me.. I’m always getting sidetracked by good hair!  Back to the BLOKC Cart sale items!!  On the reverse side of the cart you can find three mesh cropped tanktops with the words “DOPE”, “BEST” and “FRIENDS” on them, priced at 10L each.  I am displaying the one shirt, but the other two are the same with different text. As a free gift for visiting their cart, you can pick up the trendy Sweatshirt – Galaxy Freebie!

The Wash Cart Sale: Interview With The People

Because I am a curious person lol, I have been mingling with the crowd down at The Wash Cart sale and have met some very nice people.  Today I interviewed Nena Esterwood, a very fashionable lady attending the sale in a formal gown with her hair all pinned up beautifully.  She has been a Second Life resident for nearly six years now, and is designer herself creating all kinds of fashion related items.  She has participated in The Wash Cart Sale as a designer previously three times, but this year is participating as a shopper.  Nena had barely just arrived when I spoke to her, but had this to say;  ”When you are tempted as a designer to buy other clothing you know its good quality.”  It was a pleasure to meet you Nena, and thank you for your time!
