Busy as a (Bumble)Bee.

I have been busy in SL but so far I’ve found a mix of hit and miss stuff, the “miss” stuff has been binned and finally here is the “hit”stuff.

There is a big board in the Bumblebee shop and once you’ve joined the group just slap it and you get sent a random piece of clothing. All of the clothing is the same sporty0 style as worn the difference is the texture and strike me lucky my first two slaps of the board won me this bloody version.  You get a hud for the shorts but that just changes the cord, edging etc.

Don’t jog off as soon as you get what you want as there are some Lucky Boards with some great wins. I did loiter for a while and even though there seems to be a quick turn over I had to log off.

The Bumblebee shop isn’t packed with much but it has some quality “basics” and by that, I mean shorts, skirts, strappy tops, leggings which all look like great quality and totally wearable with things you already have.  I think you will understand what I mean when you see the stuff is sells.

I have a Moooooan! (1Ld Hunt).

Actually, I  have only two moans about this hunt the first is I thought I was hunting for Pumpkins and it turns out its treasure chests you’re looking for but that was my mistake.

My second moan is the darkness of the sim this hunt is on.  I’m actually using a wearable torch in this picture but when I return I will ditch the torch and change the wind light setting to something less dark but not too light as someone has gone out of their way to landscape this set plenty of spooky surprises and it won’t be as much fun if I make it too light, so just light enough to make spotting the Treasure chests easier but dark enough to enjoy the surprises.

The Landing spot has some pictures of the prizes but since there are 60 hidden treasure chests there is going to be quite a few surprises but I suspect most is decor items.  I will be returning as I do want to find a couple of the prizes and its a nice quiet event.

BTW The chests are also hidden in tunnels underground.

Wow. (Freebies).

I think Faith did a post not too long ago about some Freebies from HPMD but I’m sure if I saw them I would have gotten them.

This is our sim setting at the moment, dark but soft and hopefully set to bring out the more autumnal shades.

These 2 tree stumps are keepers and they’re staying where they are in this picture. The one in front is plain and 1 prim and the one behind has a scattering of acorns, berries and leaves and yet is still only 2 prims.  They do come with poses, just 1 in each.

I changed the sim setting to a lighter setting because I just wanted you to see the details in these glorious floral wreaths.

OMEGERD look at this close up!

This has a real 3D feel to it you can almost think you can poke your finger through it.  ONLY 1 PRIM!

There are some other shapes in this wreath pack, a musical note, arrows and this heart.  They are editable, only in size, and you even get the 3 colour choices you can see in one of the pictures.  To change the wreaths individually just click on them and a simple menu pops up or if you can use the hud which will change all rezzed copies at once. Just stunning, I even forgot what I went to H…to look for in the first place.

There are a couple of other freebies, 2 fantastic funny/creepy scarecrows, a snowflake emitter where the snowflakes actually bounce and wings…I didn’t grab those.

Creepy AF!(Freebie).

This is the face I pull when I have to return to RL.

“cocoro Lemon” the owner/creator of Coco Designs has yet again given us a stunning freebie.

This is an actual AV but I will admit I’m not actually wearing it as tbh I just don’t have the time but can you imagine gliding along in this creepy/freaky AV?  It’s fab it’s also 80 prims rezzed so sadly not for decor.

If this is a bit OTT then you get included in the pack just the rabbit mask.

Of course we all know about the fab free clothes in Coco’s shop and you will find this with the newer freebies and the older freebies are to be found in the middle building.

I have a good eye.(Freebie(s)).

There are a number of freebies upstairs in the “Nandi Style” shop.

As soon as I saw this one I thought “ooooh that might work” and it does, it’s just a simple skirt but I think you will like it esp teamed up with a woolly for winter or a cropped top for summer.

I can’t remember which group you had to join to get this one but there is a mix of freebies for a mix of freebie groups and you will find them and a couple of lucky chairs upstairs.

PS.  The picture shows 2 patterns but the freebie comes just in this 1 pattern but I spotted in the discount room that this skirt is for sale for 99Ld and comes with a 4 patterned hud.

It’s a WIN, WIN, WIN, WIN, WIN, WIN ETC.(LOTS of FREEBIES).

Bloody Heck I went to the “The Seasons Story” event this morning and I know it’s stuffed with Freebies as it’s celebrating its 6th year.  I just walked around grabbing away so lots of stuff to unpack and lots of LMs of shops old and new for me to check out later when I have more free time.

Then when I logged back into SL after a coffee break I decided to try to find some clothes and I’m so happy.

I didn’t do a close up of the boots as the damned ground texture would not rezz and I waited and waited just like a cat waiting to pounce but in the end, I gave up and this is the best photo I managed. The boots come from Hilly Haalan which means quality, lots of fits and a big hud of colours.

Always remember that the older Hilly Haalan gifts are in a stand-alone room behind you and to us long-timers, we will have had them in our invent but there is some damned good stuff in there and a couple of items perfect for the season change.

My next port of call was a shop called Sevyn.

As soon as I  walked in on the wall to my left I spotted some shoes which are the “The Weekly Limit” offer.  I would have sworn I already own those shoes/boots but a quick check of my invent proved me wrong. “The Weekly Limit” Kimora Heels only cost 50Lds and I think you will see why I was tempted to buy them but you will also see a smaller picture and it’s of this FREE “The Weekly Limit” Group Gift.  A superb Norwegian(?) hoodie. Plenty of fits, great quality.

PS. On the wall just inside of the Sevyn shop is a few freebies inc a TeleportHub one, all well blogged by me so check them out.

Info Only.(200Ld Gift Card).

Alien Gizmo is handing out FREE gift cards Woo Hoo but Boo Hoo I can’t find a coat, jacket or even an ugly jumper!  Sadly I can’t donate it either as it’s non-trans but this is just too good an opportunity to not tell you about.

So pop over to Alien Gizmo and on the wall to your right in the entrance is where you find the Free Gift Card.  If you want to check out the gift room then you can either trawl your way up to the third floor or the easier way is to pop into the Alien Pod next to the reception desk and click the TP option.

The Gifts and 10Ld items in the gift are pretty old but I know I still have 3 items from there, maybe it’s to dust them off and see if they have stood the test of time.

UPDATE: I decided to “read the card” which was a good idea as each Gift Card comes with a time limit and mine is 3 days so I will pop back soon and have another mooch around.
