  A whole boatload of thanks to @lauravonawesome for gifting me braids and pigtails, the last giftable item I needed from the store! I'm just a couple of MMAO exclusives away from OWNING THE STORE!!
  
  No new top five needed, obviously :)

  For some reason when I first tried to post here, the gifting boards weren't accepting posts or comments But, I washaving a rough week so as soon as I saw all my lovely gifts, it really brightened my week up so thank you so very much to @lauravonawesome, @charlotteprice & @debbycanty for all my wonderful hairs and outfits - i'm hoping to get a new laptop or pc ( a lot of saving of course lol) seeing as my laptop is now falling apart after I knee'd it off my bed so I can't wait to see these beautiful items in-game ^_^

  @Gamefreak130 and @Kylieb191 you're both very welcome
  
  @XxIesjuh welcome to the gifting directory!
  
  Just a tip for you: Show-Stopping Styles isn't CYS (Complete Your Set)-eligible, meaning that you won't get a discount on the rest of the set if you own individual items. If you plan on owning more than one item from that set, I'd grab Seeing Stars (which includes Show-Stopping Styles + The Hypnotizer) at DD 708 for 73% off, if you have the SP to spare.
  
  Not sure what time zone you're in, but Seeing Stars is scheduled to appear at 3:15 AM US Eastern time.
  
  Also, the Daily Deals thread has some great info that will help you get the most out of your SP. It's the same group on both boards, and we're friendly, so feel free to ask us if you have questions.
  
  Brunch at the Old Mill is one of my favourite sets, and I see an item from it in your top 5, so I've sent you a little something to get you started. Enjoy!

  @Bluessun no, I didn't~ my initial attempt to send them to you failed, thanks to that good old store glitch we all know and love, so I waited a few minutes before trying again. I'm glad it worked the second time.

  Thanks a lot for the information! I will check the DD's & Seeing Stars out asap (I have to go now).
  And thanks for contributing to my wishlist! I really love that set as well. I can't wait to help others as well.

  @XxIesjuh you're very welcome
  
  When I first joined this board, the Old Mill set was on my top 5 list and I had no idea it could even be split (as CYS wasn't a thing when I was last active on the boards). But someone gifted me a bunch of the individual items from it and, when it came up on the Daily Deal, I was able to grab the rest for free.
  
  I hope you have a great day!

  @Gamefreak130 and @lauravonawesome where did you find the Braids and Pigtails? I haven't been able to find them and assumed that they were discontinued. I NEED them if I'm going to own the store! Could you please post a link?

  Yeah @Jude525 Braids and Pigtails isn't officially listed anywhere in the store and it's not a part of MMAO or the daily deal rotation, but the page for it still exists, so TECHNICALLY it's still a part of the store.
  
  I assume EA thought it was so ugly that they tried to hide it as much as they could.

  @Gamefreak130 that's probably what happened lol. They were so ashamed that they were like, "if we make it hard to find, maybe they'll just let it die".
  
  Thanks to @PlumDiddy once again for the gorgeous tops from Jet Set Elders and Victorian Fashions!
  (The store messed up when I tried to gift you back, so you'll probably see 2 notifications for the same item~ sorry about that!)
  
  So much of my wishlist is gone, I had to add stuff to it lol. Thank you all!

  @lauravonawesome Thank you. NOW I own all the regular content from the store and am only waiting for those last two MMAO Exclusives, although they will have to be free or wait for ads to come back because I am down to 97 SP.

  @PlumDiddy and everyone else who thanked me, you are very welcome
  
  A massive thank-you once again to @charlotteprice for all the pretty things from Atomic Age
  November 2011 is now done, and I can start working on my Fallout 4- inspired build~ yay!
  
  Just one compilation left, guys! Jazz Age Wear will be free at DD 750 (in just over a day from now), and I already own 70% of Jazz Age Living Room, so should be able to complete Feb. 2011 for free as well Double yay!
  
  Now that I'm done with both venues and compilations, I can focus on sets and individual items
