About 1 week ago, I bought some MB's. I decided to write down what I got from each box and the order to see what kind of return I was getting. In previous posts I found BlackFloppyDisk had a return of around 3% for every 20 donuts spent and Jabba quoted a return of around 100% for 800 donuts spent.(Please let me know if these figures are incorrect). Here is the exact log of my MB's:LL-BS-I&S-KK-onda-news van-pond-30DLL-BS-I&S-KK-onda-news van-pond-30DLL-BS-I&S-KK-onda-news van-pond-10DLL-BS-I&S-KK-onda-news van-pond-10DYesterday I had a MB as my daily prize, any guesses as to the contents?Spoiler (Highlight to read)Yep, another Lard lad!Yep, another Lard lad!Has anyone else had something like this?

Pretty much. I wish they'd exchange the lard lads with a BBQ pig or mini war head. I did similar stats and went from 900 to 1100% spending about 1500 donuts.

LOL....I keep getting the news van and pond too

My results and Jabba's numbers are more or less similar, and other people have also reported similar numbers.It's time to rotate the mystery box prizes, I have too many billboards and news vans and I have over 300 Lard Lad donut shops in inventory.

A friend of mine told me a few weeks ago about what he got when he bought a few mystery boxes. After talking to him I decided to buy a few to see what happened and I got the same four prizes in the same exact order. I switched to my B town and got the same four prizes again in the same order. They should mix it up at the very least but some new prizes would be nice

I thought there was a pattern too...it might be a large pattern...

Unlucky.

Last time I won a mystery box was around 2 weeks ago for completing 5 Daily Challenges in a row, I got 30 donuts from it. XD

Back in June I spent a bunch of donuts on a bunch of mystery boxes.

I too got the same pattern as you.

The first four times I got 30 donuts as part of the donut prize.
The next three times I only got 10 donuts. So I stopped buying the mystery boxes. I think I spent a net total of 148 donuts for 18% bonus increase.

Is there a pattern of it going back to dishing out 30 donuts?
