I got an idea....

Make the first stop either central av at northstar or rocket city fur meet...

spend about 800-over 1k but get a furry avatar..

Then shop and accessorize it!

Last weekend I went shoppping in real life. I needed a new sportcoat and new shoes. I found and paid for both in under five minutes. This annoyed both the lady I was with and the retail ladies for some reason.

I guess I'm no fun to go shopping with at all. :o

You do not need to be in a group, just have a burning desire to shop.

I HATE shopping RL, I hate Kohl's, but it is where I get a lot of stuff, seriously hate traffic and miss being able to TP. This coupled with the fact that I do not exhibit the same physical attributes in RL that I do in SL make it a horrible chore.

SL shopping is a wonderful experience. I am able to wear outrageous stuff that I never could in RL. One of my first purchases in SL was a little black dress :p

As the time is meeting little resistence, I will not slip in some other time for consideration. Especially as I only know that I'm busy on the day and time, but do not know when I am free.

Ceka, sable, everyone...

You do NOT have to be a member of The Forum Cartel group to go on the trip. In fact, it's a good way for newcomers to meet some of the regulars...you might decide to join!

All are welcome!

No, what should be done is a boycot for let's say 5 days. Nothing to be bought, nothing to be exchanged (sl -> rl and vice versa)
Only tiers may go through, but no shopping of any kind. (and no giving money to fellow residents of any kind, except for tiers)

That way we'll wakeup LL for good, that they should accurately listen to their users whishes, instead of their own. and WE make the economy, not LL ;)
Whether or not it would wake up LL, it would positively kill me.

Sorry, no can do. I have major SL shopping withdrawal whenever I go on vacation and spend a week away.


So... given that, afternoon/evenings are usually best for me. My weekend mornings are usually spent doing the mundane RL crud that is required in life so that I can come play later in the day.


ETA - however, we all know that I most especially do not NEED any items of any kind, so most definitely set this up for whatever works best for the majority.

I'll go too... I'm pretty open on Saturdays so just name the time and the place. I could really use some jewelry and maybe some new hair. Some new jeans and maybe a shirt would be nice, too... :)

Shop on ! No need to think you in any way would be paying LL anything .They dont get a dime of what you are shopping for here in private shops .Its the content maker that gets your lindens
Often a content maker who had to pay 10 L for every clothing template He/She upploded to even begin making the stuff/hair clothes an so on

Hi, gang!

OK...the majority seems to be able to make Saturday 9 am SL time, so that's the time.

The jumping-off place is the Forum Cartel Hangout in Alanna. Please try to be there a few minutes ahead of time. If you miss the jump-off, you can monitor our progress with the Forum Cartel group chat (assuming it's working that day).

Where: I spent some time the last couple of days picking brains and barging around the grid looking for interesting shops. I have a list of about ten landmarks, some familiar and some not. We've got something for everyone...skins, hair, clothes, shoes, jewelry, men's clothing, dances and animations, landscaping, furniture...

I will send out a notice in world. There will be a notecard with all the information and the landmarks we'll visit, for those of you who can't go with the group.

See you all on Saturday! :D

Hi Sable - it's "The Forum Cartel"

For those who don't join the group (can't/don't wanna/whatever), the slurl for the Forum Cartel Hangout is: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Allana/145/41/37

And I could be wrong, but I think Lindal will also put a notecard dispenser at the Hangout.

Yes, the group is open enrollment, and all are welcome!

The shopping trip, like other Cartel activities, is open to all, both members and non members. All are welcome!

You don't have to join the group to go on the trip, or to come to the Hangout and enjoy the company...all are welcome. (Though it does make it easier to find out what's happening!)

If I remember, I'll put out a notecard giver on the porch, so if you don't get the group notice you can STILL get the landmarks. Or just IM me in world.

*I'll* bring the shampoo. YOU get to carry the huge stack of fluffy towels. I had to do that last time, and had to visit my chiropractor afterwards.

That's a BIG shower.
