I've got 75 donuts in my freemium Springfield and I wonder: Should I buy the cheap Blocko Store or Banana Dictatorship, or should I try to get enough donuts for a more iconic building w/ character like Barney or Frink? Barney and Frink will always be there. You never know if EA will release the other buildings again. In the end it is your choice what you will be happy with. :)

personally Im going to buy the Blocko store (if they ever release the android update!). Why? Consumerism. I've been sitting at 4.5 stars for a few months, and any chance I have to boost my consumerism score (sitting at 3.5 stars while the rest are all at 5) Im going to do it. While Banana is a nice looking store, it just adds to Obedience, which is easy to get to 5 stars. Neither have much in the way of tasks (each just has one character task associated)...

It depends on what you're after.Look or design: pick the building that would complete an area bestCash: I'd pass on both, a premium character or decoration with a good multiplier (i.e. 30 donuts for 2% with jet engine bike ) is a better value long termConform-o-meter: Blocko helps with consumerism and would help you get rid of extra kwiki-e-marts. Banana Dictatorship is obedience and wouldn't really help (note this info is from last year and I assume they would impact the same way)

This one is very tempting. I wish it was free like it was the last time around. The Mystery Box has been a jackpot today, so any donuts spent on this means fewer donuts on that.

I always prioritise limited items over permanent fixtures. I think Blocko is a decent price and it bumps up consumerism. No multiplier, but it looks fun/interesting and I like that in my town.

I don't think either of these buildings are worth it in a Freemium town. I bought them in my Premium town, but then I have lots of donuts to spare there.

In my Fremium I have 114 donuts saved up, but I'm saving them to buy the Springfield Sign (which is something I'd never buy in my Premium town because I think it's too expensive, so I want it in my Fremium town to make it more special).
