Sooo...is the gold box donut boat the 2400 donut "boat of donuts"? If so, I could spend at the most $20 ($1.99 per token) for 2400 donuts.

No, it's a decoration that when tapped makes it rain donuts on the screen.

And it also goes PARP!!!! I like boats.

4 Character Boxes:
Chester Lampwick
Anger Watkins
Diabetty
Herb Powell

Always wanted Herb. In my head, I paid 320 donuts for him, and got the other lot as a free gift.

Weighing up a retail box or maybe another character box.

Been spending freemium, non-farmed donuts. Just good old fashioned hoarding.

PS: Has anyone got the pet store in the retail pack... It doesn't explicitly state that it comes with Jub-Jub which is weird.

How do I always get the thing I want the least on the first pick of each box?

I really like this way of doing Black Friday. I hated the timed sales. There was always one item I missed out on.

What?

The timed sales are much better.

At least with the timed sales in previous Black Friday events, you could actually choose which item or character you wanted to buy.

Rather than this random lottery crap with the boxes for this year's event.

I can see how the timed sales are better for someone who is missing most of the items. I have almost everything so or me the boxes are very convenient.

How so?

You do realize that the boxes, especially the non character boxes are all pot luck?

There is a good chance outside of the character box, that you could up with something disappointing or not getting a particular item that you wanted.

That's why timed sales are the much superior option to this random boxes lottery crap, since with timed sales you can actually choose exactly what you want.

I prefer the boxes. I didn't have much to get and knew I was getting everything that I didn't have. I was done in a few minutes buying things. I understand that for others it would be beneficial to have the hourly deals, but I had no issue with the mystery boxes.

I wish I could see EA's stats on who plays this.

It seems the "pro" players who farm etc are getting every possible item.
Newbies though are more tentative and maybe getting one. The risk of getting bland items is just too high.

I think the first time I ever bought donuts was specifically to get Crazy Cat Lady on a Black-ish Friday sale years ago. If it was a random grab bag back then I likely wouldn't have bought any donuts.

So the free token item I got was the Mars colony and it does nothing? No money and XP, no task for anyone, no multiplier, why was it in the gold box?

Possibly because it originally sold for 200 donuts.

Then It will be going straight into storage because it is so big and useless.
