Welcome!

Hi there and welcome to Freebie Hunters! One of our favorite pastimes in Second Life is scouting the grid for fantastic hunts, sales, events and gifts from all the wonderful creators. We thought we'd share the wealth and showcase some of our finds in this blog, with an emphasis on the goodies available in various SL events and hunts. We do our best to show ALL items from a hunt/event and in the manner the creator intended, but this is not always possible.

***UPDATE August, 2018- We are still finding freebie/nearly free items to share with you, but due to RL time constraints, a lot of what we find is being posted solely on Flickr. If you would like to follow the events being posted there, here is a link to the album page for our account: Flickr Albums. These are not blog posts, but simply pictures of the gifts available. Thank you!

Thank You to all of the creators!

Summer Preview Hunt

Summer Preview Hunt
This was an interesting hunt to work on. I picked it because it had several stores I had never visited and because the weather is getting warmer here and the thought of the coming indolent summer days was simply appealing. There are 42 stops on the hunt path, which makes this a nice size to do over the coming weekend or spread over a couple of nights in SL. The stores didn't disappoint either - there are some amazing spots to explore and the gifts are a perfect balance of summer heat and cool.

There is some confusion on the hunt path, however - starting from store 8 and going to store 29, the hunt folders are off one digit from the blog numbers for the stores, so be aware of that as you reference the blog for SLurls. A few of the shops are skipped and I ran into a couple with incorrect LMs. Store 8 links you to store 28 on the blog list, and store 28 links you back to store 9 (which I think is why the folder numbers are off by 1), and store 27 gives you the LM to store 29, so no stores are skipped. Just keep an eye on where you are, and reference the blog as needed. BUT - everything is there, and you can navigate the hunt path without too much trouble. So, aside from neat places to check out, this hunt will keep you on your toes as you follow the hunt path. Use the official blog for SLurls and hints and you will do just fine. =)

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!
