I'll have to get the more easily available sasparilla drinks from coles/woolies and compare them all again this weekend. For science.
I already know I don't like Dr Pepper though :P
Dr Pepper takes like cough medicine. Wimmera sars is great - river port’s double sars is fantastic
I did, yes. No discount either offered or given. Took the item out of the cart and decided that it was a fake sale. There's now another different 4-hour fake sale on the front page. But that one might engage once todays new releases post.
ETA: Nope the new releases have posted (no prices yet) and the 4-hour sale banner is gone.
I remember Woodroofe's Sno Top Creamy Soda here is South Australia way back in the day, was really nice..
Eh. I drink diet cola, but with the Covid shortages, Kroger's will no longer sell me my prefered brand. Which is to say I keep ordering it, but that part of the order hasn't been filled since some time in April or May. Usually without explanation.
For the record that prefered brand is DietRite Zero. It seems to be the only diet cola that doesn't bury you in sodium. I would expect that its non-diet version (Royal Crown) probably uses corn syrup like everything else.
I'll stop buying DAZ content until the end of the year. I spent hundreds of dollars in recent months. Then all 3 of my Mac computers died. It's time to save money for a good PC so I can really handle DAZ Studio properly.
I don't recall seeing wimmera or river port here before. The less common brands will have to be A Separate Adventure - Sarsaparilla Wars Ep 2 :D
(sasparilla - lol I realised I spelled it wrong, actually checked this time
)
yeah I drink the Riverport now too
but I do like Dr Pepper, the UK import with sugar not the American corn syrup one
Greetings,
Trick is, when they're running back-to-back sales, one can be 'complete' and changed to the next, but the front page/landing page still shows the old sale, and clicks through to the old list of sellers. That's because the cache doesn't invalidate quickly. When that happens, putting a lone '?' at the end of the URL forces a refresh from the uncached server, and loads the page up, and you see the current sale and link.
I remember the changeover, in forums and store. Part of me is sad that so much knowledge in the forums was lost...but part of me recognizes that most of that knowledge is obsolete now that Iray, dForce, and the modern Genesis....es are out. How many dozens of 'super useful' threads were all about how to eke out a decent bounce-light image from 3Delight in under a decade? How many detailed the special tricks you needed to use Poser-designed products, or to convert DAZ items to Poser's textures, or vice versa, or how to use 'handles' and the old dynamics? And losing the OLD store was a 100% win, because it was crashing, dying, and failing in all possible ways constantly.
What I'd like to know about the 'next' store is this: Will my orders be finally correct, both currently and historically? I'm not talking about the one cent differece between the final screen and what I actually pay. I really don't care about that, although fixing it would be a nice feature. I care about an order summary on site that reads:
Like something MAGIC happened between $216.55 and $76.25, and all the prices are shown as their full retail price. Once upon a time I could go to my email, and the numbers would add up more reasonably. But now my email for this same purchase looks like:
I meant "wimmers" (typing on ipad and for some reason, I can't edit posts here on forums on the ipad) LOL.
River Port is a Victorian brand - great taste.
I'd love to see the 'price point' function - when the new store (this current one) was being tested, it was a feature. You could winnow down the store by price, $0 - $5, $6 - $10, that sort of thing. I was SO excited when I first saw that. And totally bummed when it didn't appear in the final store.
Also, how great would a "buy as a gift for someone" function be? (like you can do at rendo)
Here's the catch: the person uses that item they received as a gift, and then you ask for a refund. Boom, they are now using an unlicensed product.
Beer's always on topic to Aussies!
i get what you are saying, but if it's purchased as a gift, you yourself wouldn't be able to get a refund on it, as it would be marked as 'gift' and you don't actually get the product in your library.
I was trying to be subtle with the scenario. Here's a less subtle version: you do a chargeback, tell your bank you don't know what that charge is for, and you never received the product. That you can do at any time. The end result is the same.
Yeah, saving up for a good PC to run Daz Studio sounds like a good plan. :) It's a lot more pleasant to use Daz Studio on a newer computer than an older one, that's for sure. And render times are WAY faster on a newer computer.
damn. that's nasty.
Rendo has gifting tho, wonder if that happens to them?
Yes! Loved A&W rootbeer.
I don't know if it's even still available here. I've adapted to "Mug" rootbeer. But back in the day, thirty years before the beginning of this century, there was an A&W rootbeer restaurant on the beach in Melbourne, Florida (well, technically the beach is in Indialantic, FL). I mean right on the beach, well, just over the dune only 200 feet from high tide. The windows were always glazed with salt spray on the outside and fogged on the inside by the air-conditioning. The floor was always sandy from barefooted patrons. Surfboards were parked against the side of the building. After a hot time in the surf and laying on the beach, a big frosty mug of A&W rootbeer with friends, wearing only bathing suits, sitting on the leatherette booth benches in our wet salty skin, slowly cementing to the fabric, looking at the hazy view of the world through the wet dirty windows, watching the fuzzy images of seagulls fight for scraps, and the half mile long string of pelicans gliding on the thermals up then down the beach just hit the spot.
(*sigh*) All gone now, replaced by parking meters and paved roads.
The seagulls are still there but the pelicans are now reduced to 4 or 5 at a time.
See, I've managed to keep this off-topic despite not being an Australian. But I do have a Melbourne in my past.
They could just make gift purchases non-refundable.
@DAZ_Rawb
Is there a thread where we can make feature requests for the new store software? Maybe a list of requirements from the request for bid that we could look at to see what to expect?
I'd like the current local DAZ time to be displayed somewhere along the top banner (with text mentioning that it's local DAZ time so people don't wonder why their clock is wrong).
Enter the search term "time in utah" in google, press enter, and it shows you.
lol

we're on the opposite side of the planet to majority north american daz members so it feels ok to go OT while the peeps are asleep
but it's office hours there now so... um... hoping for cool new store features, whee
Yup, thanks; but we shouldn't have to. Rendo doesn't have a problem showing local date and time and even some games show your local time while running which I find very useful.
There used to have an independent root beer maker called Barq's when I worked in DFW and had the funniest radio commercials (I think it was the fellow(s?) from Greater Tuna). Anyway, the root beer was much better than the other brands too, until it was bought out and the formula changed to use cheaper raw materials. Then I liked IBC Root Beer best but it went out of business and is the brand now is owned by Dr Pepper which I thought was owned by Pepsi but lo and behold it's now Keurig Dr Pepper. And the Snapple that was originally ruint by Quaker Oats is now ruined by Dr Pepper.
Also the same was done with Snapple Ice Tea. Snapple use to be so good that mine was stolen from me once when I fell asleep in the airport. Well not anymore after it was bought out and the forumla changed. Such a shame!
All that is not very convincing from a quality and pricing perspective so I now stick to Walmart, Kroger, and Aldi housebrands unless they are really off in quality, which so far has only happened for soymilk.
As far as the DAZ Store goes, having them overcharge me 3 times to the tune of hundreds of dollars each time and having to write a help ticket to have that money put back in my bank account before the bank tried to take out my mortgage payment was particularly unpleasant. I won't mind seeing the last of that old store software, even though I'm pretty much through buying here.
Have you tried spelling it properly, aeroplane, instead? Though I'd avoid the issue by just using plane which did bring a few hits.
"Aeroplane" is British spelling. That doesn't make it "correct".
How about just 'plane'.. or 'aircraft'
Im' a Sprite girl myself ;)
