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!

Fantasie Mittelalter Hunt

Fantasie Mittelalter Hunt
Well, happy hunters, have we got a treat for those of you who enjoy medieval/fantasy/gorean life in SL! My intrepid hunt buddy, Entropy, ran across this german-language Middle Earth Fantasy hunt and we thought it would be fun to give it a go. We had a blast! In addition to hunting in stores per usual, some of the prizes are hidden throughout several role play sims. We girded up in our favorite roleplay finery, slapped OOC tags over our heads and had a great time exploring a panther sim, a drow sim, and several medieval/gorean sims.

Couple things to be aware of:
1. The hunt information is all in german. Thanks to google translation, this is not a problem at all - you can simply input the clues and get them back in english to help you hunt.
2. The portions of the hunt that send you into the roleplay areas of the sims are a lot of fun, but remember that people live on those sims and are actively roleplaying there - hunt, search, but do not interfere with the roleplay unless you are invited and be respectful of personal residences. The hunt items are located in public areas, not people's private homes.
3. Each hunt sign at each location has a hint chest on it - the number of chests corresponds to the number of items at that location, so check each hint.
4. There is an in-world group you can join - hitting any of the hunt signs will give you a folder that has notecards with the information on joining and the list of hunt stores/Slurls. Again, google translator is your friend with figuring out what's what if you do not speak german.
5. I do not speak German, we relied on google, so any errors in store/location names for the gift providers is entirely my fault for misunderstanding the notecard.

The only item that we did not find was #13, otherwise, it took us some time, but we did find all the other gifts, so yes, they are out there. These designers made some fantastic gifts and hid them well. Grab your friends, shift gears a bit and get into an adventurous frame of mind and go have some fun. This unique hunt will not disappoint! =)

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!
