    Yes, if you look at the link in the bar, the PC filter is reversed. They put PC+ items as 1 instead of 0 so you only see PC+ items from the latest batch of vendors. I usually just replace the 1 with a 0 in the link to see the correct items.

    ...so how do I change that globally? Changing it in the link bar only does so temporarily just like using the Hide PC items link.  If I click on another store or go out and back to the same one, I have to do it all over again.

    Yes, unfortunately you can't change it globally. Daz has to fix it.

    ...anyone submit a ticket about it?

    I did mention it over on the Report Sales Errors thread

    Guess I should have purchased the bonus item yesterday. Today the new bonus item is an add on for it; but unfortunately yesterday's bonus item is no longer at 70% off. So, unless you got the bonus item yesterday, you are pretty much out of luck with today's bonus item. 

    I wish DAZ had been kind enough to continue yeserday's item as a bonus item, especially since today's bonus item is dependent on it.

    are these extra 70% characters all going to be girls?

    I want some boys heart

    I hope so. :)

    ... Not what you want obviously, but like most I seem to be a female model collector, plus all the paraphernalia - with the exception of not too many heels.

    They'll go on sale again... That's the best bit, playing chicken with Daz over pricing.

    Probably not as a "bonus" item at 70% off. At least this weekend's catchup didn't reinstate the earlier "bonus" items

    these atill new, but don't work for the extra percents?

    On the other hand, all of last weeks Key Items are back, so people who bought a key item on friday to cover the weekend kind of got hosed.

    Does MM last the entire month or is it limited to a certain point then ends?

    I'm trying to plan out how I can buy Mei Lin 8's HD moprh (already have ML's base, Gabriela 8's base and HD morphs then maybe Kala's Base and HD morphs and if the sale would last long enough if it's not all month. I'm on a veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery tight budget so I need to be sure to maximize coupons while minimizing the amount of money I spend. I'm actually hoping Gabriala and Kala would end up in the Fast grab as I've seen one HD morph and one of the males in there already and that price point is really all I can afford.

    Historically, it lasts all month and sometimes longer.

    The problem is when you already own a lot, there's no extra incentive to purchase new items to get freebies. I already own 849 items from the Bonkers section and there's nothing else I want or need...

    I only own 56 on the bonkers section and I don't want anything from there either.

    There are only very old items that you can usually get for 0.99 if you are patient (not that I would purchase anything for 0.99 either).

    I believe Leroy and Nida pro bundles continue to be key items if you have them.

    At the moment yes, but it's still a middle finger to the ones that bought last week key items. Especially since the key items we own are still hidden and when they were first hidden we didn't know what was what.

    For example I had Leroy but I thought they were taking him out so I bought the Dior pack as well. Now the Dior pack is not even a key item anymore so I bought it without a real reason. It's a nice enough pack but if I didn't think I needed it for a key item I wouldn't have bought it.

    I have to admit, the releases during this March sale are more interesting to me personally than the releases in the last 2 months.

    I bought it together with 2 other products using a coupon for 3 products and 50% off.

    I'm not sure if I can refund it alone or I would have to refund the entire order.

    I am quite happy with the other 2 items as they were items I wanted and with normal discount + 50% off, they were a good deal.

    I'll agree that the selection is pretty threadworn and DAZ really needs to start adding some newer items to their freebies bin, but I own 1329 of the items in the Bonkers section, and while I'd probably never buy most of the 623 remaining items, I found more than enough that I'll take for free if I'm already buying the qualifying products. You just have to look around what a product currently looks like and envision what it can be with a little TLC... converting textures to Iray has really ressurected the viability of a lot of ancient props, poser dynamic cloth can work in DS via Dforce or other dynamic convertors, and the right shaders can make those V3/V4 generation hair and character skins look surprisingly good.

    If you wait long enough, they'll be the same or even less.

    I love my cash; I also love my store credit... So I enjoy the wait.

    went easy today. bought the 70% off bonus item, which qualified for a free item from the huge list of stuff i have passed on a million times before ... but i grabbed an item. 
    We will see what tomorrow brings.

    The problem with that, at least for me is that we don't have good filters for these types of offers and I don't feel like looking through pages and pages of content with characters that I don't really want to find a few props that would indeed be good.

    If we had filters and I could only see environments or props or stuff like that I would be more than willing to take a look around and see if anything catches my eye.

    Also, as you said, if I am already buying the item, I wouldn't mind the freebies but I would not consider them any kind of incentives to buy stuff like some of the other offers are.

    For example that G3 hair for 2.20 was pretty interesting. I ended up not using it but I was a lot more tented by that than by this offer.

    I've been looking at the Meme poses. I only recognize the ones which are supposed to be Captain Picard/Patrick Stewart. I have no idea as to what the other ones are. ^^'

    blonde guy instead of the desperate housewife

    I have no idea what any of them mean. I don't even have broadcast TV anymore, but I do have Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video and Apple + TV. Few people I know even watch broadcast TV anymore except news. I'm on Twitter all the time (for news) and have still never seen those memes. There should be an explanation of what they are. But I'd never use them anyway, just curious...

    I wouldn't call myself a meme expert, but I spend alot of time on tumblr. So I've seen most of these. There's the Mic drop meme, The woman yelling at cat meme, Succes Baby(who's an adult now BTW), Salt Bae, Neil Degrass Tyson, One does not simply walk into Mordor, Slow Clap, Annoyed Picard, Michael Jackson eating popcorn(not really a meme but a reaction), Roll Safe, Facepalm, and the Great gatsby reaction

    There are some others I don't recognise, but that's the thing about memes. They really only make sense in context.
