Members of the Little Jewels group received several group notices on the evening of March 11 telling of changes at the shopping center. All vendors were to be evicted, and the rents were to be raised from the extremely low 2L a week. The notices mentioned that "we will not keep sitting back and be used and bad mouthed either by the kids who rent from us and do not bother to show up here to know or care what happens here." Vendors who visited Little Jewels often and who became friends of the family due to these visits would be warmly welcomed back into the revamped shopping area.
I had a cute little shop area at Little Jewels, and they did try hard to have events for us kids. I got my picture taken for free at their photo studio, and I really appreciate that they did this for me. There was also a snowball fight that was supposedly lots of fun, and a home where kids with no mommies and daddies could go sleepies.
Then again, there are only so many hours in a day, and there are more and more places for kids to hang out. And when shopkeepers have several locations, it can be tough to divide your time among all of them. I know there are weeks I can't visit my stores because I am just too busy!
It will be interesting to see the new Little Jewels when the renovations are done.
Update: Little Jewels will now charge 25L per week for a selling spot, which is still reasonable by SL standards. There will be separate areas for clothing and toys, and if you wish to sell both clothing and toys, you need to rent spaces in both places.
