Guys, I love Luminaire. SO MUCH. I love finding empty trees and filling them with items, I love giving random gifts to folks, I love spoiling my friends, and I absolutely love the sense of GOOD that pervades the site this time of year. I've been super AWOL most of the year, but I'm trying to be better and get back into things now that my personal RL situation is calming down.

As such, I wanted to take my cue from 's brilliant idea. I loved the idea when she first started it two years ago, and I still love the idea now ❤️.

Cash Shop Credits can be hard to come by, and though there are ways to get them without spending real-life money, it can take a crazy-long time to save up enough sP to even pay for the slot price of some basic items. The Bathhouse is good for about 150 csc a month, but only if you keep your streak up every single day and don't ever miss.

This board is for those Subetans who need some extra help to get those items of their dreams.

What do you need to do? Just a couple things! I don't need you to jump through a bunch of hoops for this!

1. Post a list of at least 3 CW's or Cash Shop items that you've been pining after. Please use sCode for this as it makes it much easier for me to look for!
2. Give a small snippet of what makes each one special to you/why you want it.
3. Rank them in order of priority. If the item is retired or not buyable in shops, be aware that although I will try to work some magic, it would be very helpful to include some other items that would be easier to get.
4. Ping me!
5. If your wish has been granted, please edit your post to reflect that. You can use the strikethrough text function ("s", in brackets, and "/s" in brackets surrounding the text) to single out any one particular item that has been gifted.

Items of note

1. Please do not abuse this. I'm doing this on an honor-based system-- if you can afford your own items, please don't ask for me to help!
2. If you ask for CW items that are not available in shops, I will do my best to try to track them down for you, but I'm not a miracle worker, and I may not be able to find one. Give me some time though, and I'll see what I can do.
3. I normally don't start this until Lumi actually comes around, but I wanted to make it available early just in case folks have their eyes on Cash Shop items instead of CW's. That discount really helps me to gift as many people as I can, and unfortunately with the changes this year and no discount on CWs (and uncertainty as to the state of things in the next few weeks regarding CW's), I need to save where I can!

If you want to get involved

1. I have put a couple lots up in my trades for anyone who would be interested in donating either sp, csc, or items for me to sell in my shop to fund this project! I've been saving all year for this and have a decent amount stashed away, but it goes SO QUICKLY.
2. You're more than welcome to reach out to me directly via comments or sMail if you would like to gift items to participants! I would prefer folks not do the actual gifting without talking to me first (to prevent double-gifting of the same item), but I am happy to let others get involved if they want to-- I don't bite, so let's strike up a conversation!
3. Also, please PING PEOPLE! Ping groups, individuals, you name it. If you know anyone who might benefit from this board, I would love to have them directed here :)

Very nice little event here :)

So sweet of you to do this; this has been such a hard year on us all. Thank you so much for hosting this and giving. ;; @ cleo

I collect items that have black cats as a tribute to my cat I lost a few years ago. This CW has always evaded me and I've never seen it up for sale. 💀 Totally fine if you can't find it! This item references one of my favourite video games, Mass Effect. Would love to nab it so I can toss it in my pet's treasure ❤ I know this is gonna sound so silly but.. isopods are one of my favourite animals and I have longed for this item since it first came out. (shakes fist) I dunno how many other people are iso-obsessed but (squeezes the lil baby)

[edit] Aaaa thank you so much 😭

check out the first post :D

Thanks a lot for the chance and for your generosity! My list is almost all-CW as the only CW I own is the one I drew and submitted myself after a month of saving sP. n_n' So here's my list:

I adore items that enhance the basic avatar base and that's exactly what this one does. It adds subtle yet beautiful improvement to the shading and can make any avatar look better. It's pretty much a item I'd never take off.

I'm also a big fan of body hair and beards, love to make my HA look more masculine, and this item here is also very unique for me. It's far superior in quality compared to on-site blonde body hair and would make MANY of my looks better.

Another unique item. The angle of the hat makes it go well with any hair or wig, it's very versatile and I'd love to have it in my wardrobe.

- you're a gem, thanks for the ping :D

Omg what a lovely thing to do!

My list is

I am obsessed with finding one of these but I know it’s a massive long shot! I just love reindeers and frozen, its just perfection to me!

2.

This item is just so versatile and festive, I ❤️ it so much Thank you so much!

Spring/vesnali is my favourite season besides lumi/Christmas. This is the epitome of spring cuteness!

Thanks so much for even trying, failing any of these I would be super happy to receive anything from my wishlist xxx

Please read the first post carefully! The wonderful is open for requests of CWs and cash shop items for those that can't afford them, and also open for donations from those of us that can afford to help! Early Lumi goodness all around!! <3

[edit] This is not a Melody's Helpers event! Just thought some of you might be interested. :)

Thank you for coordinating this!

thanks for hosting!

My number one wish would be:

I love all things HP and the description, life motto!

Number two:

Titanium High Strands of the Samurai

I've loved this hairstyle forever and have several wigs already. This is the only one that I do not have that I still wish to get.

Number three:

Gleaming Silver Bells

So pretty but dang, the price!

This is a very thoughtful thing to do. I usually manage to found a way to save up for most cash shop items, but cws are impossible to me because I live outside the US and the dollar exchange its crazy at the moment.

1. To be honest, I don't know why I love this item, but it gives me joy every time I see it. I don't even know if I have things to combine it with, but its just so lively and joyful.

2. It's Ariel's hair. She is my favourite Disney princess ever. I learned to swim just to be like her as a child and I still dye my hair red. I just adore the Little Mermaid.

3. I never feel more identificate with a pixel wig than this one. Its literally how my hair looks like right now.

Its totally cool if you can't :)

Thank you :)

My CW resale shop is open to you! I'll keep an eye out on this and if I see something someone wants that I have and don't use, I'll send it for way!

, take a look!

unfortunately it looks like your top item might be private (I did a WL search and it looks like the only folks who have it list it in a "Private" category). There's always hope it might one day pop up in the pawn shop or you'll get really lucky and find a copy, so I'd still leave it on your list! I sent you though! Can't wait to see the HA you make with it :)

thank you as always, love <3

I hope you get to create more CW's one day! Especially since they're overhauling the whole system to make it much cheaper to make your own copies now! Sent you for now though! I hope you get some good use out of it! <3

oh man someone on my board last year asked for the ginger version of that catnip tea and I never was able to make progress with trying to find it! I will keep on the lookout, but in the meantime, here's for you!

I'm gonna put your items on my WL and put out some feelers to see if I can track them down! <3

Sending / your way! Also-- I'm pretty sure I'm dating myself here, but the Little Mermaid was the first movie I remember seeing in the theater when I was little, so it also carries a special place in my heart as well!

ahhh thank you so much! That's such a generous offer! <3

- sending Brioche her

Thanks for searching ❤️

,thank you so very much for the beautiful background! I'll be using it as soon as Fireside is wrapped up. :)

- I have subscribed to this thread to get new post alerts. If I see someone post an item that I have, I would be happy to send it over to you. :)

you're the best! Especially because I totally skipped her! (facepalm)

's got , I've got ! I hope you can get some awesome use out of them!

thank you so much! You're amazing <3
