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!

Retro Swap Meet @ The Wash, pt. 2

Retro Swap Meet
The Retro Swap Meet has been in full swing over a week now, and we couldn't resist bringing one more peek at some of the fantastic retro-themed items available until June 6th. Best of all? Everything you see is 10L or less during this event. There are over 30 designers taking part in this event and TONS more stuff than what we've shown here. Its a great event and a great chance to pick up some real steals and deals.

Remember, this is a limited time event, so be sure to stop by The Wash and check it out!

Retro Swap Meet @ The Wash

Retro Swap Meet
The good folks over at The Wash sim are hosting the Retro Swap meet event until June 6th. We've been posting it to their own blog for the last few days, and thought we would share the goodness with our own readers. The theme for the event is all things retro, spanning from the 1920s to the 1980s. We've seen some really great designs - everything from glamorous 1920s starlet-inspired gowns to some pretty funky disco outfits, as well as home decor/furnishings from a sweet looking lava lamp to some pretty cool beanbags. There are over 30 designers from SL taking part and all the booths are set up on The Wash sim - making it really easy to wander around and take a peek at what they have to offer. Best part? Everything...yes, EVERYTHING..is 10L or less!

Its a long weekend for most of us, so its a great time to take a couple hours and check out the event.

One More Peek at World Goth Fair...

World Goth Fair
The World Goth Fair has a little under a week left before the event finishes up, so we thought we'd bring you another peek at some of the goodies the oh-so-creative designers have come up with for the fair-goers. Remember, every booth has items specifically earmarked for the Sophie Lancaster Foundation charity and many of the booths also have gachas with oodles of great stuff. When I last checked with the Fair coordinators, the Fair had reached about 2/3 of its goal in total donations. If you haven't made it down to visit yet, please do - a lot of these gorgeous items we've shown are Fair exclusives and won't be available after the Fair ends on May 31st.

Cheers,

~Shadowed & Thanos
