    Spent more on this sale than any other before, I certainly wouldn't mind if there were only terrible deals for the rest of the month at least.

    I felt that I had kept my spending in check, only grabbing a few good deals here and there. Yet somehow, when I look at the numbers, I spent as much as I normally do over the course of a month. crying

    At least I didn't overspend. But I didn't spend less, either; and I was trying to.

    Hm, the most recent item on my store main page is still the Mousso character from a few days ago... does anybody else have this problem?

    Apart from yesterday's last cart, I usually threw out items over $3.20
    Average price for an item was $2 at over 90% off (with the 40% token discount)

    Couldn't get that low yesterday as the Mad Artists didn't include Daz+ items and there were just a few DO items released June 2018 or earlier, so decided to get some more expensive items that I had on my wishlist.

    I am not DAZ+ so would not see the bargains you would have

    didn't stop me spending on PA stuff though

    Only bought some stuff to get rid of my DAZ+ monthly coupons for March and April.. so... around € 50.- and my wishlist didn't get a lot shorter, as the sales were mostly about DO items, of which I have very few in the wishlist...

  • PerttiAPerttiA Posts: 10,024

    Had a look at today's offers and tried some combinations... 75% off at best without tokens and if one had 8 tokens, it would still get only up to 85% off for DO items with Daz+ membership.

    There needs to be additional grab bag today for collecting tokens.

  • I spent about $33 during the sale, all of it on older stuff, most of it from my wishlist, but also a couple things I discovered from their inclusion in promos* - notably the wonderful Pocket the Miniature Horse that is just what I needed for some planned pieces. The most expensive single item was $9 for the Bunny World bundle, which was part of the Easter coupon deal. 

    Many of my paid items were from those Y Items for $X.99 (coupon or not) deals. Keep doing them, Daz. Even the ones that get you more items if you buy New, are Daz+, etc., I was still happy even when I got fewer because I didn't meet the criteria for more.

    And I added to my wishlist because I didn't have the cash for everything that caught my eye.

     

    *This is why even people who have lots of older stuff should check those promos, you never can tell when there's going to be something you missed or Daz decides it's finally time to add a few different items to the ones that seem to be in every promo selection.

    I put items in my cart pretty much every day of the sale. I only made one purchase during the month of aprit, 5 April, for $25.83. I don;t remember when MM started, but March I did go a bit more crazy and spent $90 for the month. April not over yet, and I like the new hair bundle for today, but only 51% off, and it appears nothing else discounts with it. My DO DAZ+ coupon was spent already. Back to reality. When's the next sale?

    Sad to see them go but it looks like it may be the last week for tokens.

    It was a royal pain in the behind to figure out what to use to get the 8 tokens and what to do with the coupons, but in the end I think I got a good deal with both, not Madness-Good, but still.

    I don't know if I am signed in or out half the time today, it's in a loop of signing in and out

    and those 2 tokens I finally got yesterday are gone today surprise

    Lightning Deals that changes every 3 hours. A new flash sale but mostly old stuff like V4 for now.

    I have no idea what all the fuss is about. Is this a DAZ+ only thing? Lousy sales during march/april except for a few days. Nothing but buy-ins and puzzle sales. My wishlist is down only a few, still around 380. When it takes too long I tend to remove items so maybe it's a good thing. All about the shopping experience here it seems. Do you guys ever render the stuff you buy? I already have trouble with that but more because of health issues. I can't spend 12hrs anymore behind the computer like I used to and using DAZ on Mac already takes a lot of your time :)

    I got excited and thought we were getting a new core character when the banner announced "Nahuel 9 HD" ; but was dissappointed to find that it is only "Nahuel for Genesis 9" and not a DO core characeter.

    Same here Wendy. Sometimes it's ok other times it's a constant loop. Maybe grown-up babies messing around, who knows...

    there are a couple going on now, but one is gen 4 or so and the other items I've passed over at least 100 times. Its that way with most of these pop up sales, or "free" offerings where you buy an item or two and get a category item free. Most of them i dont even bother to look anymore... just a glance..the MM sale with the 3.99 items had a few I had in my cart but then i dont "need" them, just would be OK to have just in case down the road. I'm getting pretty particular what I buy, and its price, need, and not below G2. G2 is very questionalbe if I would buy them.

    Hmm, Daz is getting pretty stingy with their gift card discounts -- only 8% this time. I'm really low on store credit; so, I'll ptobably get a small one anyway.

    Hey, at least no buy-in right ;p?

    I bought 4x 2.99 things from my wishlist but it sure is tedious searching through it all for them since it only shows in the cart and showing wishlist now a DAZ-DEALs pro feature only

    DAZ seems determined to try and not sell me stuff

  • I was really too busy today to check out many of the Lightning Sales... anyone find anything good? Looks like it's mostly older V/M and G1 stuff at the moment.

    I think it's different for everyone. Based on some unknown "algorithim", since I've seen some G3 stuff, like the G3F Centaur starter bundle. Nothing I actually want to buy, but still. 

    This is my current set:

    Heads up for anyone considering the gorgeous Madame Pompadour set: the V8/V8.1 version was previously available at Rendo. Like me, you may already own it...!
