Sticky Fingers

Nice freebie ... sorry I missed it before Christmas. Also, look for the free "regular" lingerie gift near by.

Moushou!

Unpacking my Christmas Moushou was worth far more than the mere L$1 she cost me and now I have a wonderful shoulder pet that makes fun sounds, includes a poufer, and is just adorable.

Living Tree Christmas

It's Back! Livingtree, Robin Sojourner's sim, has their annual gift box out. It includes a Festivus Pole, boots, candy canes, a great sweater, this year's Rudolph nose, and more! You gotta stop and grab it. While you are here, check out Robin's texture tutorials, and the great shops with lots of kid's toys by Robin, Pygar Bu, and Marianne McCann (great people you should meet sometime). I always buy toys for Christmas here. Near the door to the big building you can get info on the "Scribble Me A Christmas" hunt.

Cartoonimals For Christmas

I've long been a big fan of Cartoonimals, supporting them with my L$ since they started. So I'm tickled pink to have grabbed some freebies when I spent more money there today. Get an adorable animated cat in a box for under your tree and a Grinch shoulder pet right at the landing area.

Rebel Xtravaganza Freebies

What a friggin' adorable store this is! Rouge Darcy sells rather unique backpacks (look at the bomb on my back in the pic), cute girly-wear, and neo-goth clothes, among other items. There are freebies (SLurl) under the stairs and a Lucky Chair on the other side of the stairs (10 minute cycle; current prize is a special Christmas outfit).

Everything seems to be reasonably priced and the store is fun to look at ... cleverly designed and built. A real must-see. Actually, the whole region is worth poking around. In fact, here I go now ...

Shep's Greetings

Happy Christmas :)

Lucky Kitties Uccello and Angela sincerely hope that all of you have really great Holiday. Make it fun, safe, and full of love.

Atomic Kitty & Cartoon Kids

Today was Whim Day. Something persuaded me to go to Atomic Kitty when I heard they had a temporary location (SLurl). Like several other shops they are giving out a gift-a-day with boxes under a tree and it's pretty good stuff. The penguin backpack in the pic is one item and I'm tickled that it works so well on Loco Pocos avies, too. The box you see has a sit anim. Nekos will love the tangled-in-the-lights look. Other prizes include clothes, a great waiting-for-Santa cushion (with milk 'n cookies!), and more.

The puppy is an adorable follower pet that I got from a Lucky Chair at Cartoon Kids (SLurl) when I had a notion to jump on a chair call. He rolls around a lot when you move but he greets those that come near you and says cute things when you pet him. Toys, food, and a bed make adopting one easy, if you can fight the crowd at the chair. Pretty good whims I had today.

Christmas @ Greenies

Greenies (SLurl) is always a blast, but this Christmas they have been extra generous (see previous post) and they continue to give. Go now to grab the presents under the tree! These include clothes, avies, toys, and more! Be sure to look up, too, for ornaments made by visitors, like this one from me! And hit up the kitchen freezer for some ice cream.

Read more about all this on Vint Falken's blog (Web) or just go!

Another Hunt @ Lesbos!

There are ten stockings hidden on The Isle of Lesbos (SLurl; Women Only) filled with gifts for the ladies. Another ten stockings are hidden on The Isle of Lesbos Mall sim (SLurl) with gifts that men and women would enjoy. No secret phrases this time around but the stockings may not be as obvious to find as in other hunts earlier in the year (Hints: I like to put them in amusing places and sometimes move them from day-to-day, but one is always near the main landing areas). Simply click the stocking and a folder full of goodies will show in your inventory with a name starting "Isle of Lesbos Stocking" followed by odd letters and numbers (I use them for sorting the stockings).

There are no stockings hidden on Oasis of Lesbos or Bay of Lesbos sims but these places are great to visit if you have some time. Hopefully you've been looking for the wrapped presents that change content and location around the skating pond on the Isle (SLurl). If any male really wants the stuff for the ladies on this sim, please contact Uccello Poultry.

Loco Pocos Hunt

From the Loco Pocos Group Notices: The next long awaited hunt event has now arrived at Loco Pocos! Starting today, you have the chance to win a brand new UNIQUE event-only avatar that will never be sold. All you have to do to collect it is decorate your tree :) When you visit Loco Pocos Island, at the landing point you will find the XMAS dream teleporter, click that to enter the starting point for the hunt! Pick up your game HUD and find the first baubel located in that area. Find all 12 to win!

See the Loco Pocos blog (Web) for details. I talked to Damien Fate today and he said the hunt won't be easy, but a special avie is a prize.

Not-Quite Advent Gifts @ Lesbos

If you hadn't heard, there are two gift-wrapped presents on the Isle of Lesbos (SLurl; Women Only; men can contact Uccello Poultry after Christmas for the prizes) at the skating pond (use the teleporter at the entrance). The prizes and locations around the pond are changed every couple days. Look for the 2008 Isle of Lesbos Stocking Hunt to start very, very soon.

Solange @ Christmas

Once again Solange is giving away some really smexy Christmas silks in red, white, and green (SLurl). Just buy each "ball" for L$0 to get yours. I'm not a big fan of the hats, but the silks are nice enough to wear year-round. Last year I used a freebie skin, wings, hair, and other bits to make a wonderful Snow Angel Elf avie with the white set of silks.

Solange has two Lucky Chairs (SLurl & SLurl). One prize per chair and each is on a 30 minute cycle. The first chair currently has some nice red plaid silks. The second chair has an attractive green skirt outfit. The same prizes can be found in an underground area in some "Grungie chairs" (SLurl). Another part of the underground area has merchandise at sale prices (and has a free T-shirt or tatt or something ... it's confusing; SLurl). I'm glad I explored the sim. It is gorgeously built and landscaped. More than worth a look even if you are not shopping or freebie hunting. I'm soooo jealous. I built something like this on spec for a client and it was never used.

The "upstairs" Solange Sale area has Christmas outfits for L$300 each or L$1500 for a set of 8, either Santa's Saucy Elfs or Santa's Lil Hotties (SLurl). These look a lot like outfits from Lucky chairs in other stores but Solange quality is top-notch. Well worth a look if you still haven't found something that will turn his or her head.

Way upstairs (use the teleporter) is the @Home Entertainment store. TVs and other "electronics" are available here, but I couldn't find the nice sports bras and shorts freebies that I got last year.

Danged if I could find any information about a prize hunt, but if you do, please leave a comment on this post. Last year's prizes were incredible.

Xmas @ Locos Pocos

Go to Locos Pocos every day starting today for a present from under the tree (SLurl). Also: "Win a HUGE prize gift card by guessing just how many gifts will be given away during the 25 Days of Xmas event @ Loco Pocos!" Visit their blog (Web) to enter.

XStreet SL Freebies

With brick-n-mortar stores having stuffed the shelves with Christmas merchandise before Halloween was over, I thought that I would have seen more such treats featured on Xstreet SL's freebies page (Web). But a quick look this morning showed only one recent item: Imagine! Creations: Ice-Dancing Snowman (Web). Not that I'm complaining. This is a nice looking, though animated for rotation only, decoration. You can bet I ordered one :)

Otherwise I found but one freebie that interested me today, and that was a nice gown from Madison's Creations (Web). Sometimes during the Holidays I have to put on a dress of some sort and this looks wonderfully wintery.
