SL Freebie Hunters: The Crystal Heart Festival

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 Crystal Heart Festival

My personal taste in anime runs more along the lines of Bleach, Attack on Titan, Gantz, etc. (the more fighty, gorey side of anime) rather than Sailor Moon and similar titles, so when I heard about the Crystal Heart Festival, I had intended to give it a pass. However, I kept hearing more and more about the event, about how excited people were for it (and from one particular friend how she went broke there shopping!) so I finally caved in and made a trip over.

Wow.

It was girly and pink and filled with cute things, just like I thought it would be - but it was more than just that. There were some amazing items to find in the various booths and gachas and I ended up not just checking out the gift items for a blog post, but shopping the first time I went there. That's right - the first time...I ended up going a second time because the Seul top just stuck in my head until I finally went back and bought.

This event definitely lived up to the saying not to judge a book by its cover, and I am very glad I ended up paying them a visit.
