I have plenty of the dollars, but can't earn any donuts, and have almost all the buildings that are not premium-based. I propose they offer an exchange of (in game) dollars for donuts, say $5,000 per donut. The 150 donut buildings would be $750,000. This seems like a fair exchange. You do have the reverse available already.Would love to add some of the premium items to my game without waiting another year to get enough to MAYBE get one...ThanksAs much as I want this feature...it would have to be higher in order to not completely alienate the premium players.I mean the price of donuts in in-game cash would have to be through the roof. $50-$100k per donut.At $750,000 what would be the point of even having it be for donuts? It has to be so high that people will still pay real money for it so that they don't have to save up cash for 3 months in order to get that 1 item.

Interesting idea that will never ever happen. Your best bet for a dollars to donuts exchange is to do the buy & sell items for XP that will allow you to get to free donut level up bonuses quicker. The weather station and bloodmobile are apparently good items to do this with if you have a lot of extra cash lying around.And your idea of $5,000 per donut and $750,000 for a 150 donut premium item is way too low. It takes me about 5 days to make that much cash - I'd never buy donuts again if I could accumulate 150 donuts every 5 days by selling my in game cash!

You sort of can get donuts for cash. Buy and sell stuff for XP so you can bonus level up and get donuts. Bloodmobiles and weather stations are popular choices.

Would be nice but no EA doesn't feel the same. Players can exchange dollars for donuts by XP leveling but it can costs millions for just a few.

Pretty sure this will never happen as it has been requested a ton since the start of the game. Which is a shame because I have millions to spend.

I'd love this! I have plenty of in game cash that pretty much has no use, and I'm always in need of donuts. :lol:

I'm a premium player, and i disagree w/ you. You see, EA got 130,000,000 dollars from this game, and they wouldn't get so much money if they gonna give everybody free donuts. And I spend a LOT of money for donuts, and how would premium players like me feel when they realise that they were spending a Lot of dollars when greed freemiums are getting the same amount of donuts like us for free. Stop being jealous freemium players and save or buy donuts. :x

Maybe when this game is finally over, and they run out of things to add, they can bring back every item back! and add a money to donut transfer system so that people can have everything before this game actually gets trashed.

Would be a nice goodbye present haha :lol:
