Darn it, you beat me to it. It's just that those particular "bagels" have coconut on 'em. Anyways, as many others have said, welcome to the forum! :D Congratulations on making so much progress in such short time. I myself started playing mid-October 2013. I was a lurker on the forum from almost day one, and joined out of necessity to find friends. Now I am a contributor who posts (usually longwinded and hopefully humorous) contributions. As for your dilemma, I will caution you it can be a slippery slope. I tend to be a bit of a completionist, which is ironic in a game that can't be "completed", at least in the traditional sense of the word. I personally can't remember what my first donut purchase was, but knowing me, I probably didn't even bother to test the water, but instead jumped in, head first, fully dressed, cellphone in hand. Now that I've been in the water for a while (and have to buy a new phone) I've noticed the water is crystal clear and perfectly chlorinated at the top, but if I swim into the deep end, it gets murky. Oh, so, so murky. The yard sale is a perfect example. EA trots out stuff that I either never had access to (as an Android tapper who only started late last year) or that I was too busy playing catch-up during Halloween to get. Hence, donuts. Hence, another boatload I need to purchase. I haven't spent as much as some tappers (I'm looking at you, NeoSEC :wink: ) but I also know I've spent more on this game than I care to contemplate. As some of the other contributors have pointed out, if you can catch a good Gil deal and have some "disposable" income you don't mind spending on an amusing mobile game, by all means have at it! I will caution you if you're anything like me, like a certain alleged potato crisp warns, once you pop, you can't stop. Or maybe it was you can't eat (well, not eat, but I know what I mean, darn it) just one. To make a long story short (too late!) if you have a couple of bucks to throw at the game every now and then, you can score some really awesome stuff. This is by no means necessary, as there are plenty of proud freemium players who never spend any money on the game at all (and good on them, says I). On the other hand, if you are like me and have a problem knowing when to say when (me: I'm perfectly fine. I just need one more boatload. Cut off? Whaddaya mean I'm cut off?) be wary, traveler, because one boat leads to two boats, and before you know it, ten or twelve boats, and you're trying to collect everything they've ever put out for the game. Sorry for the wall of text (I did warn you I'm long-winded) and good luck and happy tapping whichever path you choose. :thumbup:
