Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Clever pick! I’m always finding places where I feel an egg SHOULD be hidden — maybe I should send a list of those to Kevin & the Team for using in next year’s hunt! LOL
I also start seeing eggs EVERYWHERE — on this site and other places, too, when they are just something else! What’s really confusing is when I see an egg on another site or in an e-mail and my first reaction is to click on it! Yikes!!!

franny says:Karokat! I applaud you for taking time out to do a pick – yes, I too have ruffled the feathers & thought I’d found egg heaven in the beautiful oval decorations but Chicky LE, while I agree with you, maybe they’re too obvious. This is my 1st hunt but it feels like 3 years! – I’m trigger happy too & clicking on anything remotely egg-shaped while forgetting what the target looks like – you’ve both made me laugh & thanks for the break & the pick! Phew! PS: I think some of the baby animals beads deserve & would have looked really cute with an egg!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Franny, I’m sure that all the places I think an egg should be hidden are left “un-egged” by LB on purpose — If I would think to look there, so would everyone else! LOL!

Karokat says:Hi Lynn! Yep, I’m seeing eggs everywhere too, and I can’t tell you how many times I thought the little round Microsoft Start logo at the bottom of my screen was an egg!
Only to click on it and have my Start Menu open – blech!
Franny – welcome to the Egg Hunt! I’ve been here since the very first one, when there were only 10 eggs to find. I agree that some of the baby animal beads would have looked cute with an egg.
Now back to the Hunt! My carpal tunnel syndrome is acting up and there are still 4 days to go!

Mary S - Sweet Chick says:Yep! I looked at these “obvious” ones too. Surely they could hide a few in “likely” places? Oh well…..
Alas, my heart isn’t in it any more.
I stumble on a new egg here or there, but this is getting too tedious for me. So I’ve been working on one of Nancy’s copper wire cuffs! Great fun!!

Karen aka kidsauthor says:Hi everyone, just started have been out for awhile trying to get my website going! I just found one so far…gotta keep looking!

Southern Chick says:Somehow this year is much, much rougher. In the past years of hunting, I’ve at least gotten to 50, and done it pretty quickly. This year, after looking in the so called usual spots, I’ve found a whopping 12. I think I’ve lost the desire to spend as much time at it as I have in years past. Too time consuming this time.

Cali H says:I have to agree. I’m stuck at 49. I have a method and everything, I just am sort of jaded about it now.. I need one more egg, then I think I may be done. With so many gemstones and seed beads, I don’t know if I want to spend the time looking through every page, clicking on every picture.
On Apr 05, 2012 at 12:01 pm #
Southern Chick says:Okay…I take it back…I’ve just found 4 more. Weirder places, though. I just needed a little boost of encouragement. I’ll be lucky to get to 25 this year, I think. I’m trying to be methodical in my search before I go to the “deeper” digging.
On Apr 05, 2012 at 4:20 pm #
gypsy at heart says:Now they’ve added 35 more so that means all of the places I already looked have to be done again
On Apr 05, 2012 at 5:25 pm #
Mary S - Sweet Chick says:You can relax gypsy……from what I can tell, they didn’t add 35 more eggs. But added an additional prize level for finding 35 eggs.

P Pridemore says:Hi this is my first hunt. I’m stuck at 33. It’s getting frustrating since I’ve found none in the last 12 straight hours of searching.

Cha Cha says:You must have read my mind! Those Beryl Morganite Tumbled Nuggets remind me of Easter Eggs! I’ve been lusting after them all day!
On Apr 06, 2012 at 7:59 am #
Karokat says:Don’t be discouraged! It’ll be over in a couple days. Being methodical in hunting the menus is my key to success. I’m an obsessive egg-hunter and I love it, but it does seem to be harder this year, probably because there are SO many more products than last year. I think for next year, Lima should limit the places where eggs are hidden – like no hiding them in beaders’ profiles or messages or friends (I haven’t found any there, but I keep looking). And no hiding them in Size charts or zooms, and no having to open every Fresh Pick, even for the last 3 months, since that’s still HUNDREDS of Fresh Picks.
C Kenney, I really want those Beryl Morganite Tumbled nuggets too! And they look like eggs – what could be better?
Good hunting, everyone!

puppychick labratbecky says:I am all over that, Karokat! no having to open every stinking size chart and zoom. I mean really, we can already see the products and learn our way around the site without tearing our hair out. Isn’t that the point? to introduce the site and showcase the product? BTW in the middle of my rant here, I will say I love the updated website– Great job you guys if you are listening! I quit after 25 cuz I got a prize and spent a chunk of change with my discount.
On Apr 06, 2012 at 9:20 pm #
puppychick labratbecky says:oh yeah, and haha to your cute and apropos pick!
On Apr 06, 2012 at 10:19 pm #
franny says:I love this pick Karokat (esp. your Lawn) – this is quickly becoming the unofficial gripe site! Becky I love your honest rant! – but I did have trouble with the new site, like menus being moved across the top & from right to left!
On Apr 07, 2012 at 3:04 pm #
puppychick labratbecky says:franny, that threw my for a little while, too, but I think things are grouped better in general.
