I know allot of my Goths are new to Lucky/Freebie group and therefore a little "lost" when it comes to "calling chairs in chat"... I periodically send out a card in Group and have been told its easy to read and use... BUT any comments/questions or improvements would be most welcome. Hope to see you In world!!!

What is calling chairs? Its a way of letting ppl in your group know the chair is on a certain letter so they know they can come and get the prize. How to do it? Easy!! 

1. Open group chat for The Thrifty Goth

2. Put Letter that Chair is on in CAPS then the minutes left on the chair next to it. 

3. Go to Map (NOT Mini).... on the bottom of ur screen and open. 4.Hit the " Show My Location Button" 

5. Hit the "Copy SURL to Clip board " Button,... This will copy the LM for u to paste in chat 

6. Go Back to group chat and after Letter and Number left, hit the space key and then hit Cntrl + V to paste local in chat

7. Hit send and WHOOOOTTTTT...... Us Gothics should come arunnin 

****3-6 can also work for Spaces left on MM's and anytime u need to copy a local for the group to know about!! Hope to see more ppl calling those chairs!!!! 

 WELL THATS IT FOR NOW...... HBIC OF TTG OVER AND OUT!!!

DARE-ing To Be Thrifty, Gothic & Gorgeous; OH MY!

When I first arrived in SL a whole 8 months ago ( it seems like longer I tell you..lol), I knew i could be whatever I wanted, and yet I still gravitated towards the "darker side" because, well, thats just ME. Plain and simple. When I met ppl along the way with like minds, (ie, gothic and broke with no lindens..lmao), they told me I should try the " Lucky Chairs" at a store Called Dare Designs. I had no idea what that was or what they meant... but i went and was shown the the room at the top of the castle where they were at the time. I remember thinking "wow they have 5 chairs? They must just give away the stuff they dont want." When I quickly won my first dress, A Necroses in Black ( which I still wear!!), I put it on and marveled at the workmanship and detail. Skull imprints on the lace, ribbons on the cuffs. From then on I was a die hard customer both from the chairs and also when I had actual Lindens. I can PROUDLY say I have Mr Munro on my friends list (*curtsy), and I am still in awe of his designs but also and moreso becasue of his generousity. His lucky chairs usually have rather NEW  items  in them not "throw always" or "didn't sells".He is always having sales for his "darklings" and giving hunts and special promotions.  Dare is a brilliant designer that is also VERY giving.  It's a Thrifty Goth Dark day dream..... Quality and Quantity..at a Price we all like. FREE!! 

 

The Lucky chair area is always busy... so try and go as Low ARC as u can when u stop by....The items also change regularly.... updating from his new creations and sales. They are always stocked with Men's items, Boots, Skins and full outfits and the timer is set at 30 minutes.

Cheap Goth Is Hard to find..... Or is it

Well at least I think it is, when it comes to skins anyway. Why is it most stores think Us gothy types will be happy with any old skin as long as its pale and looks like a cross between Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson? NOT TRUE.  Us darkly types also enjoy a quality skin with realistic yumminess. And this is why my gothly little being did a happy dance when I fell over this skin at Nightshade designs! For only 25L, this skin is pale and precious with tons of detail. Plus, u get 2 of them AND a shape that is totally decent. But goth shapes is for another post my lovelies. My personal favorite thing about this skin is the shine in the lips but im sure you will find ur own reason to love it as well. Hurry on down to Nightshade and tell Bella I said HI.

Introduction

So.... Im a goth in SL ( and Basically in RL too), and I cant help but notice how many SL goth are as well. That being said, have u noticed that tho there are so many stores and things that cater to us and to our "lifestyles" (vampire games and rp sims), there are precious little blogs and groups JUST for us. So I thot I would change that. My goal here is to search out stores and designers that offer high quality goth,vampire and "darker style" apparel as well as skins & hair for free in chair MM's or group gifts or no more than 100l ( that includes the lowest prices on Mob vends).

I welcome Ideas and suggestions as well.You can always hit me up in world under  Oriana Pooley. Thats ME!!! Just send a Notecard Titled  to The Thifrty Goth and be sure to have ur name.
Any designers or store owners are welcome to send me LM's or folders with their offering. Please make sure it is being offered for no more than 100l at the time u send it to me and Please mark the Folder Clearly with ur name, store name and Attn: The Thrifty Goth.

Well thats it for right now... Expect more soon!

Kisses and cheap Latex,

Ori Poo
