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!

Mesh Around Hunt

Mesh Around
As most of you know, mesh has come to SL and many designers are venturing out and creating items using mesh format over the old texture layers/prims format. In an effort to expose more people to the possibilities of mesh, the good folks at The Ego Co. group have put together the Mesh Around Hunt. All the hunt items are mesh, many include items for the guys too or unisex gifts. It was a fun hunt to do and it was really interesting seeing what the various designers came up with. Be aware that all mesh does NOT fit all avatars. Even using the alpha layers included, many times you end up needing to alter your avatar shape to make the clothing fit correctly. For that reason, mesh clothing is not a favorite of mine - I like my shape as it is and I would much rather fit the clothing to my shape than have to fit my shape to the clothing! =) I do have to admit; however, that for a few of the items we discovered on the hunt, it would definitely make me consider creating a shape specifically to wear with those items.

The hunt itself was very smooth and we had no trouble navigating from place to place. There is a notecard included in the first stop folder with hints, there is an official blog with hints and slurls, and there is an in-world group for the most up-to-date info and extra help if you need it.

If you love mesh, or if you are curious to see what all the buzz is about, this is an excellent chance to pick up some really great items (accessories and home decor too, not just clothing) and give it a try!

Cheers, and Happy Hunting!
