Homer Buddah

I don't like those things. The odds aren't very good for good prizes and you stand a not insignificant chance of actually winning a prize that costs less than the Homer Buddha.

I wouldn't, you hear horror stories lol! I've only ever won them in the mystery box but what I've got out of them has been benches with coats on them, dumpsters and a fruit tree.

If you decide to do it, make sure you tell us what you get :twisted:

Very bad odds

I've heard people say they bought one and inside was a mystery box and inside that was a parking lot or you could get lucky and win something good

All I've ever won is green dumpsters and fancy benches

But you decide

Really, really don't. That's almost as disappointing as the misery box. Odds of getting anything worthwhile are very very low.

Better to save up your donuts and maybe buy a multiplier deco when you hit 30. The jet quad bike for example.

Don't say you weren't warned 8)

Hey, at least the Apple Tree is a break-even prize. There are five prizes from Homer Buddha that actually cost less than 15 donuts - so you mostly end up with a bunch of green dumpsters. It's all infinitely stupid.

I know I was warned, only myself to blame for that one. Live and learn

I've been lucky with them but only hen I've bought more then one. Not really worth it.

I bought my first (and only) Homer Buddah last week and got Frinks Lab! I figure after that, everything else will be a let-down, so it will be a while before I try again.

My friend was so amazed at my luck he bought one, and got an apple tree. Surprised by the result, he thought "one more" and got an orange tree. Then he thought "just one more" and got a mystery box with a parking space inside. Dumbfounded by his rotten luck, he went on to buy THREE more, and ended up with a flower box and 10 sections of white picket fence, twice.

Obviously it's hit-or-miss, with more downside than upside. Tapped out wiki has a chart with the odds for each possible prize...

That's a nice Homer Buddha, Frink's Lab. Your friend's experience sounds about right. I've only bought two, a burning bush and a tree swing, both 20 donut items, so, techinically, I came out ahead.

Funny you should mention that, because I had a few spare donuts so I bought a scratchcard and had enough for one more Homer Buddah. Yea, you are all facepalming right now. Guess what I got? Orange tree!

Strange how I got what your friend got

And with that, Springfield Orchard was founded. Now they should give us Johnny Appleseed and his sidekick Johnny Newspaperseed.

Got 3 of them few days ago... Worst decision ever first was a burning bush so not that bad as it costs 20d. But then... 10 white fences (1d each ) and green dumpster (10d)... So basicaly i lost 10d and got stuff i'd never buy myself

BaileyCat88

I've never gotten anything worth 20 donuts from Homer Buddha. I once bought 5 in a row, thinking odds might increase as you go. But no luck. Never again for me.

fuffazzoni

I would never purchase a buddha, not even under torture.

I won a homer buddha from a mystery box, i opened it up and got.................... a mystery box :? The odds of getting something good are pretty much the same as getting something good in a mystery box. They're a waste of donuts.
