Keeping in budget!(50Ld & Mention of Freebies).

If you remember last month I gave myself a 500Ld spending limit and it went so well I decided to do the same thing this month, I seriously wish I could do it in RL as I went and spent way too much when I was away!

Outside of the Arcane Spellcaster, the shop from my last post, I spotted an amazing old stagecoach which is how I ended up at “LOVE” a landscaping/decor shopping sim and although I’ve not found that horse and carriage set look what I did find.

I threw my 50Lds at the sign and rushed home and just slapped this paving/water feature down on our sim and snapped away.

I know you can’t make out the size from this picture but this is a perfect size for any courtyard, garden or patio for any sized home and it is mod.  As it’s rezzed only 3 prims.  You get 2 colours a stone shade and this brown shade.

The water effect is EXCELLENT, the way water moves in SL has just become so much better over the years, it’s subtle and yet at the same time distinctive but you will be able to see that for yourself as there is a rezzed example at the LM given.

I can hardly wait to incorporate this into my new home when the seasons change it’s going to look awesome.

There are freebies in this shop but they’ve not changed so I’m not showing you them but if you don’t know this shop

Love Homes and Garden Sim Wide Store

Smug B*. (Freebie, mention of freebies & TeleportHub 10Ld).

I can’t show you the TeleportHub gift I picked up as I just looked stupid in the picture which is a shame as that is a particularly handy top which can be worn with so many things.  Comes in plenty of fits and a colour hud so if you’re in the TeleportHub group then snap it up and if you’re not in the TeleportHub group then for the one-off joining fee of 10Lds snap it up.

Fortunately, I did get some decent shots of one of the other freebies from the Arcane Spellcaster shop.

I spotted this top as an SLF&O Group Gift but that one is a dark brown shade but you will see a row of this styled top in different colours for different freebie groups and this pale blue was the perfect shade for me and for once even though this does come in my SLink P fit I am wearing the Maitreya fit-out of choice and if I turn around you can see why.

It’s a backless and very baggy style top, excellent if you want to flash an indecent amount of side boob or what might be even sexier is if you can fit a mesh or applier bikini under it.

Anyhow there are a few Freebies for free groups and although the Arcane Spellcaster does cost to join, sorry I can’t remember how much, but I’m sure you will check them out as well.

Sneaky! (Freebies).

I’m wearing two of the three freebies from Vive….

The “Cardigan” to me is more like a sheer, lacy dressing gown but if you want to remain modest this simple bra and pantie set fits under, it, of course, would double as a bikini.

And for me another bag to add to my collection…..it’s NOT an addiction it’s a COLLECTION!

It’s the bag on top, it reminds me of the old fashioned Gladstone bags.  Totally wearable and as you can see at 2prims rezzable.  If you do want to use it for decor you will get a couple of menu windows popping up just cancel them.

Now I found these almost by accident as they’re not in a specific Group Gift area or wall they’re hanging mixed in with the other colour options but these gifts ones have a sign on them saying “Group Only”.

I ended up walking around the whole shop looking to see if there were any more freebies, I didn’t spot any others, this way of dotting the freebies around your shop is a very good way to get people to walk around so I won’t tell you were to find these freebies but I will give you a small hint in that they’re not too far.

UPDATE: Looks like I’ve missed out a fourth gift.  The lm takes you right to where you can pick up the cardigan but I spotted in the picture that she’s wearing the gifts and also a pair of black flat shoes and yes it turns out that the black pair are also Group Gifts.

Oops I said “No”! (50Ld Group Gifts).

Sorry,I’m tarnishing my Cheap B* status by doing another post where it’s going to cost you a few Lindens but since I was already in the Fetch group it’s not cost me anything. Because I thought I already owned these glasses when the notice was sent out I ignored the notice but it turns out that they are a new Group Gift and I LOVE them.  You get a hud of colours to change both the lens and the metal.  Cute or smart depends on which options you chose.

The outfit is something you may recognise as it is one of the old Group Gifts.  As you can see on my hips there is a bit of breakthrough and I also had to edit my lady parts out and that’s because this is a Maitreya fit only. You get a hud for this PJ set, 3 for the top and I think it was 3 for the bottoms.  You can’t see it but the top is raised a bit so you get a flash of underboob.

It’s been a while since I’ve checked Fetch out and there are 4 other pairs of excellent glasses for it’s VIPS and a couple of items of jewellery etc so check em out because for the initial 50Ld joining fee just in the glasses you get your money’s worth and much more.  Fetch isn’t a big shop but it seems to have something of everything and there are some plain t-shirts with “six-letter slogans” which I would seriously be tempted to buy and wear lol.

Fetch(Turn around they’re on the wall behind you).

The fun and games are over.(Freebie).

I’ve had a nice if somewhat boring couple of days off RL but now I have to get moving but before I say byeeee here is a quickie from a very appropriately named shop.

I literally “Meandered” into this shop from a neighbouring one and that’s where I found this freebie.

Again the colour has changed as this rough linen-textured set is more grey than beige and obviously, you can see from the breakthrough this is a Maitreya only fit.

I’m not too keen on the top but these shorts are pretty good and can be worn with or without that belt, I like the belt it’s a nice finishing touch.  I know I have another top, old freebie, which may go with these shorts so I might have a dig in my invent to see if I still have it and if it works for me.

There isn’t a lot in the Meander shop but I’ve LMed this place for a return visit as there are some poses and I LIKE them so once I’ve weeded mine down I’m going to pop back and pick and chose those I can work with.  BTW since I have THOUSANDS of poses it’s going to be a long haul to weed them down.

OK got just enough time to slap some lippy on, grab my bag and I’m out the door. So have a good day and I should see you later.

Meander.

I’m BORED! (Freebies).

Which is how I ended up at Apple Fall.

Lots of us by now know that the owner of Apple Fall has a sneaky way of treating us and tempting us to buy things at the same time because scattered around his shop are FREEBIES which you have to find for yourself.  You simply hover your mouse pointer over something and the magic “0” pops up. The Apple Fall hidden freebies ARE shop quality and once he’s changed them they’re reset with a price tag so it’s one of those shops you need to keep on popping into and having a wander around to see if there is something new which has had its price tag reduced to “0”.

Because his intention is to get us walking around the shop looking at everything I’m not going to tell you where the new freebies are but I will give you a couple of hints. This rusty planter is obviously not an indoor item and the other hint is that you don’t have to go far for your first freebies.  There is also a small selection of Group Gifts AND remember if you need a building/barn for your sim/home then the one to the left of where you TP in, the Hatton Barn, is still FREE.

I have a Bubble Butt.(Freebie ‘n’ Dollarbie).

The neon sign says “Treat yourself” and I did but first the Freebies.

As mentioned Justice has a new freebie which is these black shorts and with the slit and laced up sides they’re easy to wear.  Again if these aren’t to your taste check out my last post for the leather pants and the other Freebies in the shop.

When I was on the Marketplace yesterday I picked up this freebie pair of shorts which are just not my style but as I always say/think….you do you boo and so here are some Booty Shorts for those who love their booty’s.

Yup, that’s one big “Bubble Butt”.

I don’t think I can really say much more other than they ARE good quality just not for me.

OK as the “spendy”.  Get used to this backdrop as I bought myself a dressing room from the latest round of Collabor88. I will still use the bedroom of the house I have rezzed but I think esp when/if I change it then I can use this backdrop to show off my goodies. If you’re interested then it did cost 388 but the Prims are more ouchie as I think it’s about 150 in total.

PS. I forgot to mention that I didn’t even need to put on my SLink HG fit for the pants to fit so if you want the butt but don’t have a SLink or even maybe other larger butt shapes then this is the cheap way to get that butt.
