    Fast Grab has been killing me. There's been a lot of good stuff in there lately that doesn't go on sale often.

    ...so it ends tomorrow night (Sunday 23:59;59 Daz Time) with three days in the month to go. 

    ...and I thought February was a short month.

    Meager selection in PCFAD today....but I guess that helps make up for how much I spent yesterday.

     Honestly, I'd bet on it extending through Monday, ending just in time for that The Diigitals/possible NFT thing to start outside the sale on Tuesday.

    Either that, or it extends through the week (which really is more along the lines of Daz pattern and practice), and The Diigitals is the last big bang of the Madness.

    Really seem to be scraping the bottom of the barrel now. Even for someone like me, with limited content, there wasn't much to grab, even at 1.99.

     

    One of the big problems is so many models are completely unrealistic- they have cabooses the size of Nebraska, and thighs a linebacker would give millions to have. It takes so long to get them down to a realistic-looking woman that it's almost not worth it.

    IDK.  There's a few things in PCFAD today, but it's all personal preference and what you already own, ofc. 

    There's the Book Smart outfit, the outdoorsy woodland and watery vignettes, the Rhodes outfit with the nice dForce necklace, Sickleyield's confetti and leaves, Jack Tomalin's Anderson Hall Vestibule, P3D's Mindie and Fara have nice textures, as usual.

    I'm surprised that we didn't get a day when all PAs were on sale at the same time. I'm pretty sure all the past MM sales had one.

    We definetely had of those. We also had almost daily Flash sales that stacked very well with all MM promos. And even had a couple of flash sales that offered a very nice large selection of PC+ items for 0.99

    Non PC+ related, "Today Only" was something to consider. I remember offeringS of a free Victoria (even up to 8) with a purchase, free gen3 PRO bundle buying a couple of bonus items (that required little to nothing to actually pay les than 1.5 each).

    This year we had too many exeptions, expensive triggers and were asked for blind faith. Sure PCFAD are nice and all, but is mostly hit or miss, taste or things that one may consider nice but don't actually need. Most of my wishlist items are "this is nice" and while the price now is good i would prefer to spend my money one thing i need instead of 2,3 or even 4 i don't.

    Also, i missed to pull the trigger on my cart on one item this week, i was hoping for a catch up even if it would cost me a little more, but nothing sad

    And let's not forget. We had 3 proper core character bundle releases with nice WEEK long promotions.

    Well, this was fun - the least I've spent at DAZ in the month of March since I joined in 2005. If this is the new style of sales, I'm in favour. It's good for my bank balance, and I already have way too much content winkdevil

    I didn't spend anywhere near what I usually spent on MM,  I bought a 100.00 gift card on March 1st and still have just over 6.00 left, where in the past I would have easily spent over 1000.00 this month alone.  I am sure days on end went by where I only visited the forums and didn't even look at the store.  I agree with what others have said, I purchase stuff on the day it comes out and have nothing much to buy when they are hugely discounted during the big sales.  They say it only takes 3 weeks to turn a bad habit into a good habit and I am 4 weeks in now, so I won't have any trouble curbing my spending until the PA/PC sale in October/ November.

    Same... this is probably the least amount of money I've ever spent on a March Madness, and I know there have been ones in the past where I've dropped 4 digits. The new items have been lackluster at best, and having been in the game for about a decade now, the PC+ for a day item pool keeps getting smaller and smaller cheeky

    Most of the older items in my wishlist I've not bought so often that I probably only will if they're PC for a Day, and only a few were. I didn't buy a lot of my wishlist at 60/65% off, 50% isn't going to tempt me devil

    I was hoping MM would end with a 30% or 40% gift card offer. Poo.

    I like the PCFAD today, at least.

    Same here. I am picking up a few PCFAD items but I'll have to pass on catchibg up on new releases, etc.

    ...I'd rather have a longer and better MM sale with a heapin' helpin" of ketchup at the end.  No interest in the Diigitals stuff whatsoever as I don't do animations as the only things I care to see on a "runway" are aeroplanes.

    Were it not for the PC+ for a day I would have purchased very little.   Most of the new releases have been G8/8.1 oriented (which I don't use) and again there were a several fantasy and horror based themes.  As I mentioned, the Spy theme could have been carried out better (too much pre Genesis stuff most of us have or wouldn't use anymore).

    Indeed, no decent gift card offer as the only one had discount determined by the amount on the card (during the PC cale I got 20%, and back in January I was able to get 30% on any GC.)

    Over the last several years I haven't been able to buy anything during March Madness. Thanks to the Covid relief checks, I was able to buy 45 items, most at $2 - $5 each. I am generally happy with the selection of PCFAD and some of the early stacking discounts. I do wish they had released a female halfling and outfit, since the male halfling is the only new bundle I bought.

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,861

    ...I was hoping for Cat 8 or AM's cat.

  • ZyloxZylox Posts: 787

    A new cat would be nice. I did get a raccoon and a skunk, they're sorta like cats, right? lol

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,861

    ...I got the anteater, nothing at all like a cat and you don't want it to lick you.  The Koala though appears nice & cuddly, just watch those claws though.

    9 Facts That Will Absolutely Ruin Your Perception of Koalas, also their fur is pretty wooly, not cuddly at all.

    Be careful! I understand AM messed up and it's actually a drop-bear!

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 41,861

    ...kind of figured that. 

  • Well the only things I have picked up outside of PC+ Club freebies is an old (V4) armor set and the free Mabel 8. The armor set (Battle Maiden) was less than $1 and isn't skimpwear, amazingly enough. It's just the look I want for an RPG character portrait I am planning. I haven't even used my PC+ coupons yet. Generally, I don't buy a lot during MM - although last year was an exception.

    imo, this year's March Madness sale is lackluster compared to the previous ones.

  • SeraSera Posts: 1,675

    Maybe it's a covid thing.

  • mr clammr clam Posts: 707

    March Madness usually leaves me cold, but this year I added 3 pages to my product library. Almost all of it was PC for a Day items and lots of that was stuff I've been eying for a while. I also found a bunch of cool items I didn't know about like Maxx (talk about a great value for $3) so I'm good.

  • SeraSera Posts: 1,675

    The hair thing early in the month was really good- there were a ton of high-quality, drool-worthy hairs to choose from. There was also the Blender bridge banner that you could use over and over, with a ton of content to choose from (mostly poses, but also some props and other stuff). But the last half of the month hasn't really had anything that amazing, as far as I could tell. The build-your-own bundles didn't have a lot to choose from, and the free item incentives were really old stuff. 

    Still, overall, I got a lot. Mostly $3 items and things in the 70% off range.
