Not To Worry, Friend, "There's Always Another Sale™"

  • Nice, I've been wanting that Men's Shirt forever.

    My one niggle about all the men's shirts for females, is that they all fit.  I mean, shouldn't the default fit for a man's dress shirt on a woman be "too big?"  I thought that was part of what made wearing a man's shirt, sexy.  Of course, this might be a very good chance to see how well it works with Dforce by scaling up the shirt and then letting it drape.

    I think I've found something good in every set of freebies, and moreso in these last 4 sets.

    Thanks, Daz!

    Yeah, this was a very good sale for me, even ignoring the extra item I got in the glitch. Now I have to make a list of all the stuff I picked up so I won't forget about them and actually try using the goodies in some renders!

    Not a single one I own in this batch. Well, this has been fun! :) There was at least one item to snag for me every four hours, but usually more.

    This is the first time that there were exactly two items that I wanted equally...
    Ah, well, into the cart with the most expensive!

    You can get the other one for $1.39, too, if you want it. That's the cheapest new item at the moment.

    I felt a little bad about scoring the M1 Garand as a freebie, so I bought one of the vendor's items as a qualifier.
    Now I feel better.

    You made me google it. lol I'm guessing by "M1 Garand" you mean the "Private May Bundle"? :)

    This is the first batch of freebies that I have been torn about. I don't have any of the five and they all look really good. The boots for the Enamore Mage outfit are super cute. But I've had a lot of hit and miss with transferring shoes across generations. Does anyone have the Enamore Mage outfit that can test it on one of the newer generation figures? G3 or G8 or even G2?

    You could always just buy two $1.39 items and get all 7 items for $2.76...not too bad a deal, I think. :)

    Now if I could just download the blasted things, but my product download page is coming up blank!

    That sounds like you've been auto-logged out. What's the colour of the little man up at the top of the page?

    I used autofit with no tweaking but with a V4 clone I made following the tutorial in the Freebie section. The outfit did pretty well, but the boots are not that great. These are just canned poses.

    Oh that IS a cute outfit! The heels look like they're being kind of a jerk though, huh? Hmmm I might pick it up anyway - the outfit is pretty! :)

    Thank you very much for taking the time to render it! I really appreciate you taking the time to do that! laugh

    is cyber monday the same as black friday sales? 

    I hope not.. Christmas would be a refreshing change. Black Friday was very nice and would have been sweeter had I not owned most products offered.  I suspect the target promotions, are not targeted to buyers who have purchased a huge amount of  products nor are they targeted towards those who  supported specific vendors.When these occassions come we appear to be on an equal playing ground ... so go for the deals that glitch. don't feel guilty. I suspect Daz is throwing spagetti at the wall and trying to analize what clings.

    I suspect how much you spend is irelevant. It's all about the  the bass  - 'bout the bass  - no treble.

    Base = bottom line and treble = budget.

    That's really tempting. lol But I've spent far too much lately.

    Glad I could help you decide.

    There is a Genesis version that might migrate a little better. It's also DO, and is often featured in sales. Or at least it was until I bought it...

    Yeah, I keep discovering that I've bought the V4, G, G2, and G3 variants of the same outfits and hair.  It's truly amazing how many things I've duplicated simply because I forgot I own one of the other generation variants.  Unless it's a big jump like Iray shaders, I really don't need 3 of the same outfit or hair.  But yes, I recently bought the V4 Enamore Mage, only to discover that I already owned the Genesis version.  I rarely use a native V4 character.  If there is one that I really like, I convert it to G3 and then to G8.

    It transferred to G8F pretty well. I'm glad I got it. 

    @Phoenix1966 - thanks for helping me decide. :)

    Actually, the promo page for today says new freebies every 4 hours. Maybe it's supposed to continue all day?

    I meant, what IS cyber monday? is it the same sort of big sale days like black friday sales are? wondering why it's called cyber monday and not...black monday. LOL. You know? I'm assuming that "cyber monday" is sale stuff again?

    what is the "free 3d print plugin" that is advertised? I thought you had to pay for that plugin.

    It’s a big sales day too but for online shopping.

    The sale slogans are
    "Black Friday" where everyone (in theory) hits the big chain stores for stupid low bargains.
    "Small Business Saturday" where everyone is encouraged to shop local, smaller stores, local crafters, etc.
    "Cyber Monday" when (again, in theory) all the On-line places are supposed to do their super sales.

    But it's all blended into one huge weekend of spend, spend, spend...

    Yes, not working

    Cyber Monday in terms of discounts & sales is similar to that of Black Friday, except its geared towards online stores & purchases. Hence why its called Cyber Monday. It came about because of us being in the digital age and attempting to promote online purchasing. 

    Same crazy sales without the high chance of injury - well to your physical person...can't generally say the same for your wallet or budget.

    I seen that to0 and was like "I jsut paid for it"

    You get 10% your first order if you buy the plugin. So maybe they are saying free in that "Youpay 19.99 for it now but when you place your first order you will get 20 off"

    There was only one new item in this batch for me, I got that for free without a problem.
