Logged into Neopets, snagged the four bags in total from the four places you could get them...

And quickly realised 56kbps does not cut it with Neopets anymore.

I saw so many cheap bags and missed out on them due to the pages loading slower than my grandmother cleaning her false teeth.

*sigh*

Oh well, 4 bags + time will tell if holding onto them makes me a winner or a loser :P

No worries, I have a really fast new computer and I missed out on at least 100 cheap bags. So, it's alright.

Thing is, I have a really fast new computer...just a really slow internet connection.

I hate the area I live in - so many phone line problems ><

no actually, i've graduated, thing is, nto everyone wants to go to uni, so their school grade is their final grade, but for us who what to do uni, thats our final grade from school as well, but to apply for uni, we sit these nasty exams, which are worth 50% and our school mark is worth the other 50% then they aggregate the scores with some evil complicated system i don't get that well, scaling and such, and the point is i get a rank against every other person in my state, and then the uni decides if i make the cutoff rank.

so i've graduated from school, but haven't found out exactly if i can get any further :P lol

Marinnai Kasaraki i know how you feel! my puter is quite fast now i'vecleaned it up a bit, but have dialup, :( some things in this world are unfair, although, even so, you can get some good things, just not the ones everyone else is looking at like codestones and dubloons, but i still have managed to snag an unbuable item for my gallery at a buyable price, and a 55k item for 500nps :P

*nods* Dialup + Neopets = bad combination XD

I mainly do Kitchen Quests and Snow Faerie Quests, and most of the time, I am fairly lucky with both of them (Blackberry Sofa, Ultra Ice Negg, Milk Chocolate Grundo, Acara Gormball Tips, Vanilla Blumaroo Cone etc).

Dailies are still offline for us Aussies...*angry shakefist at whoever in Australia complained about those things*...save for Coltzan's Shrine, but I have yet to catch him in a good mood *laughs*

But yeah, I scoot around on the shop wizard (random searches for items with the basic three colours in their names - Red, Green & Blue) and normally get very good deals on items that I would more than likely miss out on restocking. I love Half Price Day the most ~ I can usually get very good deals on items that would normally set me back heaps :P

Shh... not so loud, the religious fanatics may start complaining that paying homage to a shrine is akin to idolatry, and should be banned from Neopets. :roll:

I believe this thread has gotten off topic enough (especially since we've hit on a religious note there.)

Locked.
