Poll : How many boatloads have you bought so far?

I bought one last night... Got the cards on sale and had $25 left over for, an old iTunes card so I paid $40 at least I feel like I paid $40..I was lucky enough to find a Cumberland farms that still was doing the deal..

Edit; this is my first boatload, probably my only boatload as well... Unless another deal comes or I get the urge to spend all of these ones... But I am going to save for limited premiums I really like...

One boatload...but, I have bought several storefronts and on odd truckload here and there. So, there's a lesson for you right there if you are a donut buyer, just go ahead and buy another boatload (especially during the sale). If you are like me you will eventually buy donuts, the boatload gives you the most bang for your buck and you might as well do it while they are cheaper. If you have resisted the temptation of the donuts, I applaud your willpower and conviction, I wish mine was that strong.

In a nutshell, always buy a boatload! :wink:

I haven't purchased a boat load yet :oops:
But I'll be purchasing a boat load next paycheck or my hubby might get it for me since he said he wanted to because he knows how bad I want all the premiums :mrgreen:
It's good to hear almost everyone else on this thread is happy with their purchase of the boatload though 8)

Buy it before Gil's deal is over! Save as much $ as you can :D

I know right I need to go get it a.s.a.p because Gil brung a really good deal with him :D
But if I don't get it before Gil leaves I don't mind purchasing it for the original price :D

+1 Thanks for the great advice :D
Makes perfect sense as I'm like you I can't resist buying donuts as I've bought donuts before but never the boatload. Yet that is :wink:

I have now bought two boatloads and a couple stores and a couple truckloads lol. I agree with tlindfors, if you are a regular donut buyer you may aswell just buy boatloads, would have defo saved some money.

It's really weird to me that the highest are NO boatloads, and FOUR boatloads... Lol that's a really big difference

I was just thinking the same thing! Consumer behavior right here. Someone should study it! :D

Actually I think it makes sense (even though the odds changed a litte, meanwhile).

I've bought 3 boatloads - but then again I've only played since February and missed out on the premium items from Helloween and XMAS. I basically have "one of each", with a couple extra cars and I didn't buy Mt. Carlmore or the Fruit Batman because I didn't like them. When I just bought my 3rd boatload, I still had 1500 donuts left from my second - I just bought because they're on sale and I positively know that I would have bought it it anyway when Squidport and Krustyland (and whatever thereafter) come along.

Figuring someone who started playing from the beginning and spends donuts in a one-of-each way as I do, and used the opportunity to restock for the future while the sale is on, they would've probabl bought 4 boatloads by now...?

Could be! No way to know for sure. Nevertheless the polls does show that a lot of people don't mind paying for lots of donuts. Which is good as it keeps the game profitable and more likely to continue existing!

I've bought six boatloads now, most recently yesterday because they're on sale and Squidport update is coming. I got a refund from Apple on one boatload, but technically I purchased six so I voted "more than five".

Started playing in September 2012. Considering how many games I haven't purchased because since then because of how much i play TSTO, I'm still in the green :)

To those who don't know what boatloads are...

You can use your hard earned cash to buy pink donuts in the game. The donuts can then be used to buy premium items. A boatload is 2400 donuts
