Definitely go for the Frink bundle if you've got the donuts. For 25 donuts *less* than normal (assuming you have the 200 initial payment), you get Frink and his lab, and a bonus premium character. Doesn't really get much better than that as far as bundles go. Even better than the Barney/Astronaut Barney and Miss Springfield/cat costume bundles.

I don't know why Maggie left before her timer was up, though. I was considering getting her and then she was just gone a few days earlier than it said.

well I got the bundle right now only to find out i mistook frink with frank and frink doesnt get event currency...
so long president lisa :(

if i knew that buying Maggie would prevent me from getting Frink and his lab, PLUS ANOTHER CHARACTER, i'd not have done it.

so bummed these sadists have also priced it so that i have the donuts, just not the surplus to cover the rebate.

so frustrating...grrr

I dont get the whole rebate thing. Why not just lower the price?

I never understood the rebate. Why not lower the price?

To make you buy the missing donuts!

Gotya. Wow. Clever!

Because in actual fact, you're not spending 125 donuts, even though you think you are, but you're spending the 200. Most people will realise that this is a really good deal, and so use their money to buy donuts to get up to 200. But they wouldn't have wasted their money on buying donuts if it was just priced at 125 donuts. It's a really clever concept, and although frustrating if you don't have enough, it works for EA and makes lots of money! :-)

This is exactly true. I just bought some doughnuts to buy the Frink pack. Wanted it forever (I've only bought one other time and that was for the barney Luann rebate deals) It is worth it when these come alone because the premium add up real quick. Plus I still have more doughnuts than I started with before buying Frink oack. I'm please with EA codependency program lol they help me out with cheaper premiums and I pay them my monies lol

also after you finish Ladybot's questline she earns event currency at the Polyvac along with the alternate Homers :mrgreen:
