Review: This was the last of a long line up of freebie stores that I looked at so when I teleported in and nothing was rezzing and all the pictures were gray for pretty much the whole time I was there I quickly formed a poor opinion of the place. I do my reviewing on my dinosaur "single core" laptop. That way I get a good idea of what the lag/rez issues might be for someone who doesn’t have a desktop super-computer like me – but so far this is the only place I have had so many rez issues with. After walking around seeing everything through blah-colored-glasses I was beginning to worry I wouldn’t be able to write a fair review so I did the best I could do when suffering from reviewers burnout – I asked a girl in the store: "Do you find this place helpful?" Her immediate response was "OMG yes!" She went on to tell me that she donated 200L and wanted to know where she could vote for them. She said it was "Everything a girl could want in one place." Looking at her I would have thought she had been in SL for a while. She had on a cute dress, nice looking skin and great hair. She did admit it wasn’t her first AV but the one she was in was only born that day and she said everything but her hair was from Free Dove.

Conclusion: While it rezzed very slowly and it wasn’t as easy to find stuff as I would have liked the place does have its fans. The random girl in the store and many other people I have known in my years of being a resident have recommended it as a good freebie place. I am not surprised because it seems to be one of those rare places that is actually doing it to offer something to the SL community without expecting anything back. There were no ads or ATMs that I could see. Seems like one of the few genuine freebie stores left in SL
