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!

The Serial Killer Hunt - Part 2

The Serial Killer Hunt
The second half of this gruesome hunt is indeed as bloody or bloodier then the first! The creative store owners have really gone all out with this theme. We had no problems moving from store to store and gathering the bloody heads. We highly encourage the guys to try this one as many of the gifts are unisex. Have fun!

-- As you might have guessed, this hunt is bloody. If seeing bloody pixel avatars is disturbing, please wait for another post. --

The Serial Killer Hunt - TSKH

The Serial Killer Hunt
If you've been watching this blog awhile, you might have noticed we tend to blog a lot of ..unusual.. hunts. All hunts are great, but we seem to have better luck and more fun with themed hunts. This also appears to be reflected in the gifts, they seem to be more playful and themed. This hunt is an excellent example of that. Lots and lots of serial killer items. Creepy! Yes, but also Wild! and most importantly... Fun! Where else would you find a toothbrush weapon?

-- As you might have guessed, this hunt is bloody. If seeing bloody pixel avatars is disturbing, please wait for another post. --

The Next Big Thing Hunt - Part 2

Next Big Thing Hunt
Well, reports of this blog's demise might've been posted a bit prematurely. Thank goodness! We are back and posting the second half of this hunt. We did run into problems with the LMs for a couple stores. This normally isnt a problem, but the official site does not have locations listed if you get stuck at a dead end. Fortunately, through joining the hunt's group and asking around we did continue on our way. Keep an eye on their website for stores to skip!

~Tessira and Shadowed

Sidenote: For those of you who saw the post that the blog was closing: The supportive comments were/are greatly appreciated. The blog is and always has been a labor of love for Tess and I. However, other things change - I finished school and am working now, I got partnered to a fantastic man in SL, and frankly, the holidays (RL and SL) kicked my butt and left me a little burned out. Tess has her own set of stuff going on as well. We have been slow as heck this month on the hunts, giving ourselves (mostly me) some downtime to recoup. The statement that we were closing the blog was a little premature. We are not. We are, however, juggling schedules and whatnot in an effort to find a balance that lets us hunt and post and still have some non-hunt related fun in SL. Thank you all for reading over the past 7 months and for sticking with us while we get ourselves sorted. We love to hunt, we love this blog, and we are definitely planning to keep it afloat.

Cheers and Happy Hunting, Shadowed

The Next Big Thing Hunt

Next Big Thing Hunt
We're going through some schedule rearranging, but are still chugging along through hunts. This hunt is full of all sorts of the interesting creations and trends in building. There are some truly interesting stores that you don't often see in hunts. So far we've not run into many problems, but make sure to keep an eye on the website. There are changes still being made to the chain of stores. Have fun!
