    No idea how diligently I shall play the stars game. I did end up with a nice result on my $6 DO coupon today

    Thank you for reminding me about the member coupons! I totally forgot I could use them, so I think I'll go ahead and get Sophia today. I suppose that puts me in the star game too, but like you, I might not play it too diligently.

    I took some time to check out the Madness Weekend sale.

    The good news was that I could save a lot on some highly-desired items in my wishlistd.

    The bad news is the lack of funds.

    I'll bet there will be some good deals in March!

    I grabbed an outlet hair yesterday just to get a star

    but even so, there was nothing today I particularly wanted 

    debating whether to grab another outlet thing today for 2 stars

    its all a bit FOMO and I still have my $6 off $18 coupon to use

    the outlet hair OK, for G9 so not wasted but

    I've just been taking advantage of the Mad Door Prizes to get a couple older sets I've had wishlisted. Yesterday I got Petipet's https://www.daz3d.com/sci-fi-lab

    Genuine question, @daveso -- I get that your're feeling disillusioned, but is there a particular point to disparaging what the rest of us here are (presumably) still finding fun (to one extent or another)? If you feel the need to move on, that's understandable -- interests come and go. And there can be an emotional process involved in letting stuff go. But it kinda feels like you're pooping in everyone else's cornflakes.

    I gotcha, why don't I blow off. i apologize. You all Enjoy your time here. Yeah, I have some emotional connection to this site, why I don't know, other than my beginnings in 3DCG, over 25 years ago,  but it is gone now.   I shall say no more. 

    So I get both of these comments. Sometimes I rant too. Say things because I could use a better filter. Say things because it's honestly how I feel. I sort of felt day one was blah. I ha

    Edit HA! DAZ knew my thoughts  and cut me off lol! So . . .  to continue I spent $130.54 5 days before and $100.01 4 days prior. Yet no star for me. I guess I should have not spent those dollars and spent 1.99 on those dyays and the next day and the next and whippie I would get a star for saving $224.00 dollars in 5 days! But. we get over it and we lick our wounds and sulk in a corner for awhile and come out to play again. It's simply disappointment. And feeling disappointed is okay. We all have those moments where we say something inappropriate be it from too much wine or too much stress or because our pets are dying, and these personal burdens sometimes make things seem worst than they are. But often those thoughts do stem from a truth.  

    So I simply bought 1 item from my wishlist, for $2+ bucks and I even figured out a formula LOL Buy, buy, don't buy, buy, buy, don't buy, buy. buy. don't buy. But if something yanks my chain I will buy on a no buy day. If nothing interests me I will do the formula because I know (for me)  March Madness will be a roller coaster worth riding and when I do buy, I want the biggest discount I can get. Why, if not happy, renew Premier for March Madness? I simply paid DAZ+ 8.99.  The thing is I never look back and say why. And I suspect that is why others are saying move on. If you have to look back and say why that is a clear indicator that something is over and these move-on comments are a simple helpful truth, But if you can look at the why and say because . . . , AND that because makes you smile, even if that because is not happening yet, that is an indicator that it is a good thing and moving on may be a bad thing.  So the real question is why? And in there lies the answer to what one should do.

    daveso, take it from one who's been there and back.

    Sometimes it's good to catch your breath and let go.

    I've caught myself being a bit too emotionally invested during some of these sales.

    Fortunately, I don't need much of a prod to settle myself down.

    By the way, I'm another old timer. I've been around since DAZ was known as Zygote.

    well my FOMO did pay off

    bought 4 DAZ+ things I wanted with the $6 off $18 coupon yesterday

    amd my subsequent gold star let me by Stoney"s gates for $7 with STILL-SIMPLE

    I cannot afford to buy something everyday though

    so unless there a single day deals occasionally 

    I won't be accumulating starts
