My random prize choices are:Blarney Castle (115 donuts when previously offered)Duff Party Liner (100 donuts. Offered as low as 75 during black friday sale)Duff Stadium (90 donuts)Notre Dame (6h) with Groundskeeper Seamus (150 donuts)Sham Rock Cafe (12h) with Yupprechaun (when tapped, small amount of $ or xp and it's XP Collider-able. For me, it's $35 and 9/45 xp.) (120 donuts)Wishing Well (4%) with green Leprechaun (same as Yupprechaun) (100 donus)I am a freemium player (since 2014, Level 939, have all the land, 160+ characters), and 80 donuts per pick makes me cautious. Is there a compelling reason why I should get all or some or none? I typically buy items when there are rebates. And I don't typically buy Gil's offers because I sleep fine without having the newest.EDIT: added previously offered donut prices

I'd say no. Are you kem farming? If yes, how many donuts a day?I had the same choices as you and purchased three spins. I won Notre Dame, and both leprechauns. Which I think is pretty lucky, but you have to realize of the six choices out there only one is a character combo it's Notre Dame the others are just buildings. The two leprechauns are NPCs. Edit: I noticed you mention Notre Dame comes with skin. It's not. Seamus is a character.

Not a KEM farmer currently. Once there was a quick glitch where the purchase price didn't increase with each purchase. I bought 398. They are in storage now. I also took advantage of the bug where the xp between levels were lower than 1 mil (also didn't focus on leveling up when it was 10 mil between levels).I am a rattrap truck player (no 4-hr waiting)... everytime I hit $150M I turn on the xp multiplier for a day and buy/sell 100M worth of trucks.

The Leprechauns are fun to have if you like NPCs and the cafe is a cool building, Groundskeeper Seamus has some great visual tasks and the Notre Dame church looks nice.The rest is crap imho, unless that Blarney Castle would fit in perfectly in your town somewhere.

I'm still applying ointment after the date night boxes... plus it's my first St. Patricks and not even got offered O'Flanagans so i'm passing...

I'd say give it a pass, unless you have a gazillion donuts. You don't seem desperate for anything in particular available in the boxes and they'll no doubt be on offer again at a later date.I was lucky to get the leprechauns I wanted anyway.

I had two cracks at it, both times with Notre Dame on the leftmost side in case that matters.

It didn't. I got the Duff stadium and the Sham Rock cafe.

I started with three available prizes; Blarney Castle, Notre Dame and Duff Center Arena. I had to have Notre Dame to unlock Seamus, and was very happy I got him in the second try.

So in the end, yeah it's a pricier box but the odds don't seem so stacked against you like some of the other similar boxes they've done over the last year.

originally purchased three spins. I won Notre Dame, and both leprechauns. Which I think is pretty lucky, but decided to get everything :D. So ended up getting Castle on spin number four, the arena on spin number five and boat on my final spin.

So did a lot of us, and yes it was listed as two days more. It VERY frustrating when EA forgets how to count. I had just earned enough donuts in my second town for a box and....

I had 3 options; Blarney castle, Duff stadium and Notre Dame, got Notre dame which was my #1 choice. Bought a few things for my military school and had 78 donuts left. Was waiting 1 more day to find Maggie so I'd have enough donuts to purchase another box, pretty disappointed today when I went to but and offer gone~2 days early.

This deal was not for me, Notre Dame was the last one from 7 slots. I will wait for next year, but I bought Duffman, was waiting for him 4 years.

I don't get it... I was surprised to see that they put the items on for so long....

I was sure I had read somewhere that St. Patrick's Day items would be available from 17th to 21st March and remember thinking to myself that meant they'd only be available for the weekend, then when the notification popped up Friday morning and it said about being available for a 'very limited time' I further assumed that also meant Monday and was actually confused that the timer was showing 7 days or so...
