    Very cool update. Dr nick raised the bar last time with 90 donuts for a character. Now mr plow is 90 donuts just for a homer alternate! Gain a premium, lose a regular character. Oh well, it's cool so I bought it.

    I love mr plow but that seems steep. Need burns limo first. What are the mr plow tasks?

    Just when I'm getting close to getting to the top level they add another one. Not complaining I know I will get there, eventually.

    What the hell is a Pimento Grove though?

    I was wondering that too. I feel like such a bad Simpsons' fan, since I never heard of Skip's Diner or The Gilded Truffle before either.

    /Hangs head in shame.

    Don't feel too bad, like most people I had to look it up aswell.

    On a diffrent note I'd like to say I'm really disappointed that EA did not decrease (the then current price) of buldings to bring them inline with the new update. I was under the impression that's what EA did, yet the apartment bulding's price has remained the same.

    The apartment went down in price in the last update (right people??) and somebody posted that the hospital has gone down in price. I don't have it yet so I'm excited that I get to save some coins for the manor.

    I was expecting that too, I'm at a stage where I'm struggling to get enough $s to get the next buildings and more land, I could have used a little hand like that.

    Burned donuts up to speed up tasks. Not me, I don't want Homer eating my donuts. I will sitting here bouncing and twitching and waiting impatiently for the day or two it will take to get it.

    Nothing wrong with using donuts, just not for me.

    Yay we get Smithers! And he's voiced!! That's cool :) Good update but I just wish they'd take away the snow.
    Also, I'm level 25 but the fountain isn't unlocked for me??

    You unlock it through a quest, presumably after you build Burns Manor.

    I'm chuffed about the deal too. The sign and the Lair were my two last desired premium items. I'm exactly 76 donuts short though, which is an awkward number to make up. Still, w00t!

    This is unrelated to the update, but I'd like to point out how much I love that British people use the word "chuffed." Such a great word.

    Yummmm....this pie is delicious! *passes the fork around* LOL.

    Hey, I was a sailor and the saying goes that "A b***hing sailor is a happy sailor" so what's ya'lls excuse?

    Anyways.....I had bought the Lair way early in the game and I got the sign today because I knew I wasn't going to be offered the deal. So no regrets there.

    The limo is awesome and gives 2.0% bonus. Did you guys see the fountain? Wasn't somebody asking for one? And check out my Simpsons Snow family....I went a wee bit donut crazy. I was sitting on over 550 anyways.

    Oh and got Mr. Plow then realized it was yet another Homer costume.....grrrr *yes, I am going to complain about that because I wanted another character. Least I've got Smithers to look forward to*

    Before you complain about Mr Plow have you seen that he gives a job bonus of 150%
