I did the latter, after the Halloween event was removed I was placing some decos and accidentally bought the fiddler !_!So I was wondering what other people have accidentally throw doughnuts away on.Well, when the game first started I actually bought $10K of in game cash for 8 donuts, I believe. I was so mad, because it took me a long time to earn 8 donuts and I was only scrolling through the store to see what was available. I NEVER would have spent donuts on in game cash. Total waste! Worst. Purchase. Ever.But after we actually got the donut confirmation button, I bought Candy Kevin without checking my donut confirmation button was still on, D'OH!! Second worst purchase ever.

Happened to me yesterday. I guess I forgot to verify the donut confirmation after the update, was scrolling through the decorations and apparently selected the Boardwalk Performer for 50 dollars. I always scroll at the top of the image too, so I don't press the price, but somehow that didn't work. Figures the one time I didn't check it backfired on me (and 80% of the time I would check after an update, my donut confirmation would still always be on, but not this time).

Not a purchase (luckily don't have any of those!!), but have accidentally sped up the Kwik-E-Mart and Brown house before the confirm option was implemented. Those li'l 2 donut spends do add up!! :(

I didn't know there wasn't a confirm option when the game came out. I find that ridiculous.

Accidentally bought raven Bart during Halloween 2012 just by scrolling. :evil: At that time there was no confirmation. Glad that got fixed!!

Worst accidental purchase. | EA Forums

I got the stupid boardwalk boy on a box too. D`oh!
The Human Statue (one on the wooden box) was in-game cash, not donuts. So you can feel a little better now. :-)

Also you need him for the squidport questline, so not a bad by at all. But I can understand not wanting to spend the cash on him before you need to.

I just wasted four ruddy donuts on betting again on the SF downs. I've got confirm donut spend on and it asked me if I was sure and I still said yes!!

Don't know what was going on in my head. A moment of pure madness.

I try to be careful but I've been burned 4 times now by accidental clicks on Springfield Downs when the try again button popped up under my finger while tapping other buildings. Wouldn't be a problem if donut confirm didn't keep shutting itself off.
ea always disables it for updates or when u reinstall. that's one way of making money. accidentally forgetting

I have read this numerous times, but it never gets switched off with me. Not after any update.
