Usually I am excited for Friday, but this time… I’m dreading it, because it’s back to work for me on Monday! ICK. I decided the best way to spend my last normal work day of Christmas vacation off was to do a little shopping and then head to the Pixel Bean for something decadently sinful… maybe a Mochaccino and a cupcake! The pounds don’t pack on here in SL unless we want them to, so what the heck!
My first shopping stop was to Sweet Leonard where I found three (new to me) group gifts as well as several previous gifts that are available to you after you join the group for 70L. I picked up the My Winter Legwarmer Boots, VIP Gift Winter Bag & The Just Love Me Sheep. I thought the sheep would be a good snuggle, but he makes a great body guard too. The Winter Bag is stuffed with all kinds of winter goodies you’ll need to keep you warm. My next shopping stop was at Auxiliary where Tyr has just set out a new group gift for their VIPS! The latest group gift is the mesh Printed Sweatshirt shown in the photos that conveniently matched perfectly to the Sweet Leo items I had picked up earlier! I love it when things all come together :) It comes in several sizes with co-ordinating alpha. This group is 1100L to join. Yes, it’s a steep fee… don’t shoot the messenger – I think it’s worth it if you plan to stay in the group because she quite often puts out new gifts. I have picked up probably triple that amount, value wise in gifts since joining last year. Joining this group also gives you access to VIP discounts.
Hmm… Now that I am done my work here, I think I’ll go follow the same suit in RL! Unfortunately this will cost me money and cut WAY into my calorie count for the day. Worth it? YES! It’s the last day – gotta make it count!
One of the things I really love about Sn@tch is their 7Seas Fishing Pond. Every couple of weeks Ivey switches out the prizes, which are always very generous and complete with footwear and accessories and sometimes they are several pieces that mix and match to make multiple outfits! Currently, she has an outfit put together for us that includes 20 pieces called In The Midnight Hour. It includes the top, corset, scarf, gloves, skirt, leggings, boots and also the earrings. You do have to purchase a 7Seas Fishing Rod from the vendor for 100L, but there is no need to purchase bait… and you can use the same rod over and over again for different prizes, so it’s a smart investment! There is always a group of people in there trying to catch their pieces which is to your advantage – because you can also transfer and trade the #s you have extra of for the ones you need which makes it a little quicker!
My Ugly Dorothy has another dollarbie skin set out! This is Special 1L Skin2. It features s a very pale complexion, thick lined eyes, ruby red lips and a beauty mark with a very light sprinkling of freckles across the nose.
