Not sure how they're going to top all the sales they've been having ... but hopefully, yes, let's us hope that there's a deluge [i.e. flood] of tremendously great outfits and hairs and shoes, and boots, and BULLDOGS [subtle hint] ... getting ready to be launched for the annual March Madness Sale!

So while waiting ... saving all those pennies we can't spend in the real stores anymore ... dreaming of ??? to add to our collections. [let's face reality, with gigabytes of stuff, whether we render or not, we're collectors]

Let's see ... if we talk of how much money we're planning to drop in here IF the right temptations come along .... who knows what might happen.

I want a realistic good old fashioned type English BULLDOG. It doesn't have to have a ton of toys with it. Props I can make. Thank you.
Expressions with it [yes these are very expressive dogs, check photo references] would be a nice bonus.
An aniblock or two for the famous bulldog walk would be a very nice treat too.
Poses ... mandatory to have the bulldog "stance" of course. The lowered head and beady eye glare.
These dogs do not sit like other dogs do.
These dogs do not do a lot of things like other dogs do.

OT: watched an obedience clip on television of a woman who took her bully through a course before judges and crowd. We thought it was a joke entry, poor handler, it wasn't a joke. She had worked very hard and was hoping her bully would actually perform all those obedience tasks. That bully did everything "the bulldog way". One does NOT jump fences. One "ploughs through them". One does not zig zag around obstacles, one send 'em all flying making a bee-line for the target. At least the organizers had the forethought, whether planned or not, to have this entry at the end of a set. He demolished the entire field.

    I hope the sale is handled well from a technical standpoint. I have seen way too many sales over the past year that were broken when launched, had confusing or misleading information, or other problems.

    I also hope there are some nice, flexible sales as well. I liked the Black November sales because of the 'Build Your own Bundle' options, which are fun and helpful.

    I also x 2 hope there is plenty of Genesis content. I get frustrated when a sale just seems to be an excuse to try to move really old, outdated products.

    I am looking forward to lots of new products also, especially new heels for genesis and quality innovative clubwear for genesis/or V4. i don't want bundle deals, just good sale prices on single items without having to buy anything else to get it.

    I spent quite a bit during march madness last year. I wonder if they'll launch Aiko 5 just before? If they do it's going to be a pretty expensive few weeks overall.

    Anything has to be better than last March. I remember being very disappointed last year as there was very little released for Gen 4. I don't expect it to be different this year either.

    I spent less than $90 in March ... that's not even a quarter of what I normally spent in March. Based on the skew numbers on what I did purchase in March, the only new products I purchased were the weekly PC products (West Park / GIS products and Lady Elf Hair) and Merlin's Crossing. Everything else had been wishlisted during the year ... and nothing was clothing.

    Another Platinum $2.99 sale of PC items for everybody would be nice (still quite a few there I'd like to get my hands on). I broke the bank last January because of the surprise Platinum sales that I wasn't prepared for. A BOGO type of sale would be fine, I guess, but I throw fits trying to calculate those.

    What I really hope is we get a month long schedule in the newsletter (at the very least for the PAs scheduled for a sale). It would help a lot for the budget conscious or those who are following a specific vendor's works.

    Same here. Lately they've been doing those "chain" sales, where you have to buy the item today in order to get the sale price on tomorrow's item. That's useless for those of us who don't use Genesis. If you can't use most of the items, there's no way to get the sale price. And the price of bundles isn't very appealing, either, if half the items in them are Genesis-only.

    Of course there might be no March Madness at all...but I'd love it if there was, and you didn't have buy a product every day to get the sale price.
