Hair New Era

Yes, a bit of total randomness in the midst of the never ending Valentine's slue of freebies. This is one I hope you don't miss since this hair comes with a hefty price tag -- RAC (http://slurl.com/secondlife/RaC%20City/101/121/26) has decided to give a fatpack of it's love affair hair for $0 for Valentine's Day so rush there and get it! Wandering around one day I happened upon the Nikko (http://slurl.com/secondlife/nikko%20am/94/113/27) I'm not quiet sure exactly what the sim is, but there were several shirts and a suitcase there all for $0. There is also some sort of game there where you heard chicks (yes, baby chickens) around, but I can't figure it out. Maybe you'll have better luck. =D
