Winter is here, as snow now covers the ground and trees.
This morning, Re-Tail was buying turnips for 138 bells each. Since the week is winding down, I decided to sell about two-thirds of my turnips at that price. In the afternoon, the price went up even further, to 183 bells. So I sold the rest of my turnips and then put all of my money into my bank account. My balance topped 29 million bells.
Amelia told me she was going to move out of town on December 14th. The cool part was how she said it: She said that winter puts her in a migrating mood. Hats off to Nintendo for that clever bit of writing.
I told Amelia to stick around, though. I already have all ten of my villagers’ Toy Day hints, and nothing is going to mess that up.
The winter brings snowballs that can be found around town. Do you wanna build a snowmam? Even though my snowpeople-building skills were a bit rusty, I surprised myself by pushing two snowballs together just right to make a perfect snowmam!
A regular snowmam will give you a piece of ice furniture in exchange for five snowflakes, but a perfect snowmam only requires three snowflakes.
I had two already, but I quickly found a third to give her. In exchange, she gave me an ice closet. Each piece of ice furniture sells for 8,888 bells, so catching snowflakes can be quite lucrative.
Up on Main Street, I bought a Santa coat from Able Sisters and some Santa boots from Kicks. All I need now is the hat.
Tomorrow is Friday Night Forest, so the people on my friend roster can visit when I open my gate around 10 pm Eastern time (7pm Pacific time). Bring your snowflakes, because my snowmam will still be alive and well! I’ll be back late tomorrow night with another blog entry. See you then!
Over by the Roost, I found a lost item on the ground.
Amelia was nearby, but the item didn’t belong to her. However, just a few feet away, I found the item’s rightful owner: Agent S! She was happy to get her fancy pouch back, and she rewarded me with a stove.
Down on the beach, Gulliver was talking about matadors and bulls. He’s headed to Spain, and he’ll be sending me a gift from there tomorrow.
Drago may breathe fire, but the snow cools him off.
He asked me to catch an ocean fish for him, so I went and found a squid for him. He thanked me by giving me a future tank. It’s not exactly good weather for a tank top, now is it?
I then went up to Main Street. In the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Meg Rowe from New Leaf was my most recent dream visitor. In Able Sisters, I bought a Santa beard before using the big sewing machine. This design is a retro gamer tee designed by Mike. It has a NES controller on the front and Mario on the back. If you’d like this shirt, it’s available on the
I later returned to the Dream Suite, where I dreamed of Nintendo of Japan’s official dream town. TZ recommended the town to me back in
There are a lot of face cutout standees of Nintendo characters, including the cat suit from
The houses and rooms are also based on Nintendo characters or games. This must be Toad’s
And somehow I ended up in Bowser’s castle! I should have dressed for the occasion, but I’m still in my pajamas.
There’s even a
Wendell lets you take all these patterns home with you, including the ones for the face-cutout standees. It’s a great town to visit, so give it a look if you haven’t seen it before. The dream address is 0000-0100-0017.
I jumped down and found Resetti and Don in the middle of a conversation. Resetti was complaining about a voice-recognition system that was forced on them from their HQ. But I thought this was HQ.
Resetti basically told Don he was too stupid for the new equipment anyway.
After they discovered that I was standing there, they told me not to use the voice recognition system to say “Scramble.” But of course, I tried it anyway. Unfortunately, not much happened, other than Resetting telling me to stop.
I noticed something funny as I continued talking to him, though. Each time, Resetti would sink down into his seat as he spoke, only to pop back up when he was done talking. Must be a glitch.
After I went back up, Sprinkle told me that she wanted a yellow present for Toy Day.
That was the final clue I needed! I now have all 20 clues, and I know what everyone wants. Christmas Eve should be a breeze for me now! Here’s my list:
So he gave me the Refurbishing Master badge!
It’s my 10th gold badge! Thanks, Phineas! Here’s an updated look at my current badges:
