This is an incredible sale for anyone who has bundles wishlisted in the featured artist categories. Possibly the best I've seen.
For me, not so great as I already own those bundles. Even though I'm seeing equally staggering prices on my wishlisted items, I'm struggling to justify checking out because of the 5 item cap, as with a new release mixed in, the overall cart savings are pretty standard per item.
I think that might be working as intended and just poor wording/formatting per Daz usual.
60% off up to 5
80% off* up to 5 with any “Beastly” New Releases
Use code: BEAST-MODE
... I dropped one of them in my cart with the code and it gave 60% off, so I think it would be more clear as
60% off up to 5 with code
or 80% off up to 5 with new release and code
The sale month seems to be definitely over now.
- The "85% discount* up to 10 items when you buy any new Wishful release" offer still isn't working for me at 2:00 AM – whether I add any other Wishful new release item or not – no discount is being applied.
- I have no idea if the monthly discount coupons are working now, but I don't have any Daz Original items left on my wishlist anyway.
- The "80% discount* up to 5 items when you buy any new Wishful release" offer requires me to buy a new item, which doesn't make sense to me given the prices of the items I want.
I'll most likely have to watch my remaining 49 tokens expire due to a lack of real offers (just like last January or after the last Summer Sale), and I probably won't renew my subscription.
I really wish Daz would replace these convoluted and confusing discount tiers of grand promises with a simple, transparent, and effective discount policy, that works right from the start.
No offense - just my unworthy two cents.
Okay this is a terrible thought . . . but DAZ often makes me thankful and grateful . . . but sometimes DAZ makes me go gad, NOOOOO, URRRGGGGG . . . so when I get alzeimers do not feel sorry for me, it may be a blessing.
Monthly coupons work now. I did a Wishful new release, 8 tokens, two full-price Daz Original bundles on my wishlist (not from any featured artist category), $10 Daz Originals premier coupon.
Cart was roughly $14 at about 93.5% average discount.
Wishlist Week promo was triggered, so I used the last three slots for wishlisted Raw Art critters at about 93% discount. Good cart for under $20
Thanks for this tip to stir me to have another go at compiling a cart - seems Daz+ coupons weren't functioning when I had a couple of gos yesterday.
So I used my Daz+ $6 DO-coupon and 6 tokens to get Cheyenne 9, its HD and its Braids at 95% off ($6 the lot) + another couple of Daz+ randoms from my WL for 98% off (< 50c each) and a sporty-dress - that might one day get some use - as the Wishful NR at 48% off (<$10)... A decent cart for < $16 (93.2% in total)
... I could have saved another $1.35 and got the cheapest Wishful NR, but I don't think it would be fittable to Daz Horse and I wouldn't put it on anything else!
A great end to the first week of 2026. 7 straight days of issues and errors. There hasn't been a day so far in 2026 without something being broken, but I did not expect them to end the week with the whole store completely breaking down and being utterly unusable. I look forward to another 51 weeks of this multi-million dollar company being unable to handle basic website functionality
[Sigh] Another gift card sale where all the buy-ins are bundles I would never use. I can't afford to buy something I'd never use just to get a gift card. If they want to do this I wish they would at least give a variety of bundles to choose from - a male bundle, a female bundle, a environment bundle, a prop bundle, etc To give those of us who don't need Female bundles a chance.
Looks like my tokens are going to start expiring because there is very little I want to buy.
I am also out of credit, so I am hunting for a decent GC offer, but this one misses by some distance. Like you, neither of the two offered bundles are at all interesting to me, and represent a high buy in for the discount.
Fortunately the next major sale is 2 months away, so I can patiently wait for a better offer.
You could buy the cheapest featured new item (hat ptrop) to get your discounted gift card and old bundles.
Which is a good strategy if there was any bundles I wanted, I already own what I need from any that interested, so I would be buying old bundles to get stuff I didn't want the first time around. They weren't the draw.
If this sale gets a good deal for some people, I'm glad for them.
If you have any of the top bundles wishlisted and plan to shop the sale, it's worth testing a trigger item from the Monday Wishes sale since that discount stacks too.
I had to dump my test cart either way due to budget, but a Monday Wishes buy-in dropped the total price by double digits.
(Yes, that's like $25 of buy-ins after 8 tokens... even if there's bundles and gift cards to incentivize it, no thanks.)
I started losing enthusiasm as it appears there were no solutions to various problems with some deals or coupons.
I prefer not to move forward until old problems are fixed.
And then I lost steam, lost interest, and ran into "financial realities."
I just don't find any of the offered Bundles interesting. It feels like they left out the bundles that would most interest me.
Oh, and yes. Money is a huge concern. We'll see what is offered in February.
Me too. Bank account is mucho gracios.
My credit card screams everytime I come here
I've stopped buying DAZ items this month.
I have continued buying new clothes to celebrate my weight loss.
The women like seeing me wearing "real pants," and using suspendors.
One woman said she liked me wearing light blue shirts. So I bought another one.
I am trying to spend this thing. Years ago this would have been gone is a flash. This would be spent and replaced three times by now. What changed? Vendors or Products or both? I look back on past purchases and think WOW and now it's like settling for a non-wow buy. Maybe too many great PAs left. Dunno. CAN'T SEEM TO SPEND IT.
I'm seeing on Daz Dealz that there's an obvious jump in the in the price history graphs starting last autumn. That, combined with the store doing a lot of samey-same... well, if one's library is already robust, it's not exactly insprational.
I don't see anything of interest at the moment, which isn't a big deal and the only downside is that the tokens and vouchers will probably expire. Hopefully, there will be some interesting offers again during the Summer Sale.
Until then, I'll try to get my asset library in order, and maybe I'll even manage to get Daz Studio running at least at an acceptable speed again, because after installing my latest purchases, it's become unbearably slow.
As a relative beginner, I'll probably have to ask you all a million questions about this in the coming months... :-D
Two days in a row for bundles? That seems odd. How many days in a row can someone afford multiple bundles?
My only disappointment is there was a men's clothing bundle in December (I think) that wasn't on sale today or yesterday.
If they were on your wishlist you can add "Wishful" New Release to get pretty massive discount on some expensive bundles.
Pricing is definitely a factor for me, especially that now all the prices and promotions seem to include tokens at the Premier level (so very easy to get, especially on the double token day). I'm not spending $40 on Monday/Tuesday (as Daz+) just to have a shot at maybe-a-good-offer in the next two weeks and spend some $20-50 more on actual products. It's just not in my budget.
But I also spent a lot in the past months: first PA sale, then even the member festival that had extra discounts baked in for collecting freebies, and while I slowed down in December, I did keep my 3 punches throughout, so I was spending a little bit daily and once or twice built a bigger cart.
The factor of robust library is also there. I already have things I need and many of the things I simply wanted, so I'm less prone to getting anything, and high-price buy-ins are always a turn off for me. I wouldn't mind them as much if they were from some bigger selection, but it's tricky to get the right match of "new release I want enough to pay release price for" and "offer triggered by the new release on the products I really want."
On the other hand, the sales have been going on pretty much non-stop since September, so I was expecting that in January we would finally go back to the usual "high buy in, no crazy good offers" offers. I'm of a mindset that my spending is going to be slow until March Madness, but I also know that Daz likes to spice things up. A few years ago, we got an insance deal for the Chinese New Year. Some other year, there was some other "random" weekend spree, so I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up buying more before MM comes around. Until then, I'm happy to save money so I can afford those deals when they come.
I'm happy that G9 is now included in "Classic Bundles" in increasing quantity. Now along with the opportunity to get G8 items I've missed, I have some G9 choices as well.
What's this about the store breaking down? Did I miss something? I was only on yesterday long enough for a quick check of new sales page. WL, & the Commons forum.
I saw a couple reports on the other thread that the spinny tiles had struck again. By the time I saw the reports, though, it seemed to have resolved.
At this point, my potential spree offering is basically seeing what pops up in QG on Mondays (and, more rarely, the Outlet when it refreshes). Which I love, really. I have something to look forward to, I know the prices are in reach, and it doesn't require complicated cart Jenga and a large investment of time and mental energy (stressful if my day's not going in a direction that allows for it) and worry that there's some factor that will make the cart price jump 200% right as I'm about to check out. I've got a whole week to get to it. Sure, some weeks are definitely more up my alley than others as far as offerings go, but that's okay... if it's a bust one week, I know the dice will roll again soon. It's not the limbo of feeling like things will forever be out of reach that I get with most of the sales. And no big that the tokens don't work because I rarely have many/any anyway... so I don't feel like I'm missing out on a better price I could be getting.
I feel similar about QG. Great prices and something to look forward to on Mondays, and you can wait for a week to see if you want to build a bigger cart. And at those prices, I often pick an extra thing or two that weren't on my wishlist. And QG (and partially Outlet Store too) is what made me decide to commit to a year-long membership when they were offering it at a discount. Coupons can be a hit or miss (sometimes I end up not using my $6 off $18 one because of all the other coupons required to be used for various sales), but QG's reduced prices for members really add value to the membership for me.
When the Daz clock ticked over and the new sale went up, every single item on the store was inaccessible. Every image/thumbnail was just a spinny loading circle that never loaded anything. The new things released for today weren't spinny loading circles, but they also didn't display correctly. They showed an error message and if you clicked on them, ironically, it took you to Daz's help center page for bugs/errors. This would be funny if it wasn't the seventh day in a row that Daz's daily sales have had huge problems that meant they didn't work.
@danmast That's just the way it is here. Every day, something in the store is broken, and change over has issues. It seems that it was worse starting 12/31, and I don't know that it's all better. But really, nothing unusual is happening here.
