Limited time items! :-\

I don't buy that many. Typically one and done.
  • I have lots of the ones I like but only 1 or 2 of the ones I don't like. But I have at least one of everything in the game. For example, I have over 20 Of the pink Frink car, I can't remember off hand exactly how many and I know it's crazy to buy that many of any, one item however I only display 3 or 4 at a time. I've thought about setting up a car lot.

    I didn't know how to answer your poll because of my own, crazy buying pattern.

    I would love to have a yard sale and sell off some of my limited time stuff.

    Edit to say I voted the one that I think is 5-10.

  • I usually buy 1 or two of the premium limited time decorations. As for the in game cash decorations, I usually buy anywhere from 20 to 50. It just depends on how much I like the item. Last Halloween I only bought 15 dead trees and regretted it later. Now I have 100 dead trees just in case. You never know how you will use a decoration. Like the Heart Shaped Planter, I had 50 of those and it turns out if you place them close together and surround them with hedges, it adds a nicely looking texture that is different from other decorations.
  • The same as pull up a chair
    Before I been buying just one item, so I have everything
    I think first time I bought multiple items it was Xmas 2012 - reindeers... many reindeers...
    And since then I was hooked, I'd start buy more then I need (if donuts let me)
    And store it for later
    For example I've got 5 limos, just two on display, but will use em one day...
  • I only buy one of each item. I think the only exception is the spooky walls, which I bought quite a few of. Other than that, the other ones I have multiple of are the burning bush, which I get from opening up land, the free reindeer & the stuff EA gave away like wailing wall, box of fireworks, etc..
  • Thanks everybody! I think I will stick to buying about 2 to 5 as that suits me! However, I'm annoyed I didn't buy more of those dead trees during Halloween. I was planning on putting them around the nuclear plant to give it a dead look, however, im not sure I have enough now. Thanks! Its nice to know what you do. :-D
  • I went with 6-10

    When I buy i keep in mind I may later have an idea so I buy extra just in case it's needed
  • Lots. 30-50 if using in-game cash. I never regretted it because I always find a way to use them for decorations after event is over. Premiums is another story. Only 1 or none. I only buy multiples for donuts if they have a great multiplier.

    This entirely depends in whether you mean premium or freemium...


    I'm fairly certain he means freemium. Most people would never imagine that there are people who buy 20+ of ANY premium item (even though there are).


    I have one neighbor whose entire beach area is lined with the Duff Blimps. They were a limited time Premium Item, from the end of season yard sale. I wish I would have bought one, and have thought many times I wish I could make an offer to him for one of his 25 or so blimps.
