DEKA - Freebies and More

I went out searching for more prize camping chairs last eve. I really like the idea of prize camping. Instead of just TAKING from the designers, those willing to sit are actually trading a service (more traffic and higher placement in the Places listings) for the outfits, hair, accessories etc. House of Zen is still number one in my book, but finding the Geisha hair at Magika yesterday was very exciting and I was curious what else might be out there.

DEKA --- Jingyo (178, 32, 54) ---was first on my list of the eve. I did find a prize camping chair and camped for an outfit. It turned out, however, that I liked the free things better than the camping outfit (at least the one I tried). So above are the photos of my favorites. The pants outfit is actually for men (wink) but I liked it a lot. It is tintable (currently red as you can see) but it is also no copy. So if you think you will love it and want different colors, buy it a few times. If you tint it to WHITE, you get a lovely variegated green and white trim. The skirt came as part of a spaghetti strap dress - another buy for 0 item not shown.

Find the freebies at the entrance. Some are above the lucky chairs, some right when you walk in. The posters are large so they are hard to miss. There is also a free outfit certificate for new folks under 2 weeks. That poster is right next to the prize camper.

There are lots of very reasonable priced items here and a cute outfit if you join the group. Upstairs there are more expensive theme garments. All in all it was a fun visit and I recommend a trip to DEKA to check it out.
