Sunday Squee: Bare@Rose's Raffle

The Sunday Squee is about things that make me happy and excited. From books to movies to television shows to podcasts, I'll highlight less commonly known things as a way to share what I love. If you want to join in the Sunday Squee, please link back to me, magnifying both of our joy.

Bare@Rose: Deepwater Steam Innsmouth

One of the most generous offerings on the grid is the raffle at Bare@Rose. It goes 24/7 all through the year, an ever-changing avalanche of items. Some are seasonal, some are unique, some are plays on items for sale in the store - all of them are up to Bare@Rose's standards of quality and style. Sometimes there are themes - like an extended Magical Girl set that includes several outfits and a slew of accessories, or the steam set which branches out into instruments and vehicles. It does take some time - raffle prizes are given out every four or five minutes - making it an awesome place to park yourself if you're going off to do something else, or a place to hang out with some friends. In that context, extras from the Raffle Gods become something fun to pass out to your friends, or the odd newbie who comes your way! There are male and female items both, and a lot of accessories are gender neutral, so don't let your masculine tendencies bar you from the glory of Bare@Rose freebies.

Bare@Rose: Macaronchan


I have been an enthusiastic enjoyer of Bare@Rose's Raffle for a long while now, but in addition to the awesome freebies there is also a totally jaw-dropping assortment of clothing for sale for a lot less than one might expect. Every now and then a discount card might be dropped as well, making picking up a few items like the Chocola shoes I show off well within the reach of even the most cash-strapped newcomer. Once you have a purchased item, find a staff person in the store and ask to be added to the VIP Group for weekly announcements and alerts to the Friday dances (often with prizes available) and the occasional hunt (lovely, with fantastic sets and stories). Bare@Rose is one of the gems of Second Life, supporting a wide variety of body types and genders, offering up a cornucopia of inexpensive options for people new to the grid, and serving as a sweet place to hang out and enjoy the sheer variety Second Life has to offer.
