Featured Store: Sn@tch
I remembering first hearing about Sn@tch, due to Free*Style. I think I might have even saved my very first Sn@tch outfit on my main avatar, haha.
It has been an awesome journey, watching the store grow, and the style not conform over the years. It has stayed fairly set on it's path, which means it is one of those reliable labels, it easily becomes a staple. It is one of the handful of stores I actually visit each week. There are always friendly people in the store, and always some sort of something happening when you visit.

Some of the weekly happenings at Sn@tch are:
Left - Sn@tch-n-Grab Weekly Deal - Current Deal is L$50
Middle - Riot Vendors - Normally 3 items(currently 6 due to the holidays) - You need to grab a group of people, stand near the boards, and the pricing will drastically drop, going from full priced down to 45/50/55 Lindens, depending on the board.
Right - Fish for This - Normally changed Bi-weekly, you must have a 7Seas Fishing Rod to participate, does not require Bait. The Ladies are always around trading, so if you are missing something, speak up!
Left - Lucky Boards - Just wait for your letter to pop up, and then click the board. These are changed out a few times a year, not as often as the fishing outfits, but often enough. I want to say every 3 months or so. It's enough time to collect them all, just from your weekly visits.
Top Right - Front Desk Gifts, there is always a little something here, and it is always random. I have enjoyed many of these packages over the years, cause they often have something fun to play with.
Bottom Right - VIP Gifts, The group is normally a paid one, but it does get opened up a few time a year. Join the subscriber to find out when that happens. You can always find the current VIP gift in the VIP Lounge, near the Riots and Lucky Boards.
Sn@tch is also in many events through the year, and often offers a little grab bag at them. They also have a few big sales every year as well, with the whole store going down in price. Again, it is worth it to hit the subscriber, so you can keep up to date.
For those who are really curious, I looked up the very first post that officially had Sn@tch coverage on the site. It was by the Free*Style creator, Creamy Cooljoke. Enjoy the retro Flashback . . . HERE. Man, I miss Creamy, and blog comments, haha.
