My Own ABD

With a little help from my monthly interest on my bank account, I got my balance back up to 100 million bells today. As you may remember, I spent some of my savings to get the shopping badge last week. But now that it’s back up, I got this letter in the mail from the post office. They sent me my own ABD (automatic bell dispenser)! I actually forgot that there was a reward for saving 100 million bells! Other than the badge, of course.

Dear Jeff, We'd like to express our sincerest thanks for the 100,000,000 bells that you've entrusted to us. We've prepared a personal ABD for your use at home! -Forest Post OfficeSo that’s like having my very own ATM! I can access my savings from in my own house now! For now, I put it in my gorgeous furniture room.

Your current balance is 100,120,000 bells.It was raining in town tonight, and Boots told me about the latest gossip. He said that people are calling me a shopaholic now. I guess that’s because of the shopping I did last week (or earning the shopping badge). Okay, okay, it’s true. I admit it. But this is probably the only time they’ll be able to say that about me.

Boots: You've been the subject of some gossip lately. Rumor has it you're a shopaholic.

I shot down a balloon present near Booker’s house, although I snapped this picture a tiny bit early. There was a tumbleweed inside. That seems very out of place on such a wet, rainy night like tonight.

Favors for my Forest Friends

Last night, I spotted my first tarantula of the year. I got my net out, and approached it slowly. But when I swung the net, my swing was apparently blocked by my zen bell. I missed, and the tarantula attacked me!

Jeff passes out after being bitten by a tarantula in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.Big Top asked me to make a delivery to Bob today, and he said to deliver it before the end of tomorrow. That seems like an unusual way of phrasing that.

Big Top: Make sure you deliver it before the end of tomorrow.So I took the package over to Bob, but not before…turning into a red balloon?

Jeff is hidden behind a red balloon present flying by, as he delivers Bob a present from Big Top in ACNL.But since I incorrectly guessed what was inside the package, I didn’t get a reward for the favor. And when I shot down that balloon present, it only contained a balloon dresser. Double disappointment.

Rolf told me he wanted to stay up all night drinking cherry cola with me. I’m not sure I understand why, but…thanks? I guess?

Rolf: I feel like I wanna stay up all night sipping some tasty cherry cola with you! Why is that?!

Boots asked me to catch a stag beetle for him, so I headed out to the island. Sure, you can catch stag beetles on the mainland this time of year too, but it’s much quicker on the island. Besides, I caught a few extra valuable bugs (and a shark) to make the trip worth my time. Boots just rewarded me with a pot rack for the bug.

Boots, surprised: A saw stag!Vivian asked me for a new catchphrase, so I told her to say “in a cup.”

Vivian: Waiter! Come here, in a cup! I think there's a fly in my popcorn, in a cup!I chatted with her again, and she asked me for some fruit. I gave her a perfect orange, and she thanked me by giving me a patchwork table. Seems like I did a lot of favors for my villagers tonight.

Vivian: Can I do something else for you, Little J, in a cup?

Tycoon Bell Saver Badge

It was raining in Forest last night, and Camofrog was loving every drop. He couldn’t get enough of it.

Camofrog: Rain, rain, fall all day! I love the rain, I tell ya!Today was the day I’ve been waiting for. After putting some money into the bank, my account balance reached 100 million bells! At last!

Your current balance is 100,000,000 bells.The rain from yesterday was long gone, and the clear weather allowed Phineas to show up right away! He gave me the Tycoon Bell Saver badge! 😀

I got the Tycoon Bell Saver badge! I've saved up a fortune!After that, I took some of that money back out of the bank. I went up to GracieGrace and bought a few high-priced items, including this Gracie chest.

Gracie: A Gracie chest? You have exquisite taste, darling!After I spent about 700,000 bells, I returned to town and asked Copper if anything was going on. He told me Phineas was in town again!

Copper: I saw Phineas a little while ago.

So I made my way around town, and I spotted Phineas in the frog neighborhood (near the houses of Lily and Camofrog). He said that I’ve shopped so much that he should come to live with me! Only if you keep giving me new badges every night.

Phineas: Perhaps I shall have to come live in your extraordinary home with you! Arrrk ark ark!He then gave me the Master Shopper badge!

I got the Master Shopper badge! I can't imagine a life without shopping in it!

I figured I’d get the shopping badge soon after the saving badge, but I didn’t necessarily think it would be on the same day! I must have been fairly close to earning it anyway. Here is an updated look at my badge collection. Only four more gold badges to go!

My badge collection as of June 23, 2017.As for other things going on in town, I found Tammi the monkey camping at the campsite. Yikes.

Tammi: Heya! Look, I know it's kinda sudden, but I've decided to set up camp here.And I found that the entrance to the Reset Surveillance Center was open tonight. I dropped in, but I didn’t see anyone home at first. That is, until I walked over to the toilet and saw Resetti telling me about the baked squash he ate. Eww.

Resetti: Uggghhhh, that baked squash didn't do me no favors...
TMI, Resetti. TMI.

Kevin from Yabucoa recently visited my dream town. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend.
