    Noob Turnip question folks. Is it advisable to buy all you can on Sunday. I've just blown 100k bells on turnips :)

    That's what most people did, find someone online then with a high turnip price and make millions

    Have you seen the turnip tracker websites? Use them as a guide

    This forum used to be very lively offering high prices each week but it’s not guaranteed now

    I rarely got a chance to buy in time myself!

    I was lurking with interest here at the start at all the turnip talk and found it quite amusing. Bought for 102 which I don't even know if its a great price but will keep an eye on prices on my island during the week. Figured worst case I'll lose half or something, I havent really been watching the prices last week cos this is the first Sunday I can buy them. I earned most of the 100k I spent yesterday so at least bells aren't too hard to come by

    Go onto NoFeeAC on Reddit, people are always posting their high turnip prices there. If you have online you can sell on their islands.

    Just realised today is Halloween and have been harvesting pumpkins but haven't crafted a huge amount from them apart from some lanterns and scarecrows. Are they worthless after today. Also went to make candy set and only realised I can only buy one candy a day from the shop and their not available after today.

    For folks that are well advanced, did ye do a lot of re locating on your island before getting it right. Not sure with how happy I am with how mine is laid out at the moment. Have most houses around residential services and getting a bit crowded now. Also at the stage where I need to make a few more bridges (only have one now) and start making inclines but not sure if I should buy cheaper ones first or just get the ones I really want instead.

    I've been logging on every day for about 2 weeks. Usually do the standard daily stuff and by the time I do all that there isn't much time to think about enhancing the island. Am I Animal Crossing wrong? Thinking I should just get into some crazy debt and start getting the place they way I want it and put more thought into it instead of my current random approach.

    You can’t really get into crazy debt as you’ve to pay each loan off before the next

    There’s no right or wrong way to animal crossing

    There’s 3 on our island (little one, Mrs dodge and me). We went haphazard at the start but looking at other islands and YouTube etc we started to plan it properly

    Spent a few weeks moving all the other houses to a ‘residential quarter’. We have all the shops together. We have an orchard and some others bits on the other side. I live near the beach and the other two live at the back

    What I’m saying is that you can play around with your design as much as you like. That was easily the most fun part for me and my wife. We’ve only really tinkered with the design over the last couple of months (we had a spa/pool area that became a fireworks viewing platform that is now a halloween party space for example)

    Edit: if you’re short on bells, prioritise the island over expanding your house. Soon you’ll have millions of bells and nothing to spend them on...

    I knew I had to pay home loan before another expansion but I thought I was able to make bridges and inclines at the same time. Best get paying off that 500k bells so.

    I'm only 2 weeks in and enjoy logging on and doing the daily stuff but think I need to mix it up and spend some time on layout etc. Might look online for inspiration.

    Shops and houses are pretty much close together but could do with a bit more order. Residential quarter like you mentioned might be something to get started on before I get more villagers in. I picked the island layout with most of the land in the middle and its surrounded on all sides by a river that curves around it. Kind of regretting not going for a different layout at start now, or maybe I just need more bridges to make it flow better and more accessible.

    Cool, will open in 2 minutes. You'd better bring candy as my villagers have gone wild with sugar and ready to insult anyone who gets in their way!


    EDIT: Open! I may be away from Switch but feel free to call over! :D

    Playing with the family here. My only tip is to at least once, don’t give Jack a candy. say no...

    Edit - the same happens when you say no to anyone

    The Halloween event was really fun I thought! Villagers were so cute in all their costumes. Shame we only got some of the furniture last night though. I feel pretty ready to put away all the Halloween stuff now!

    Ya that's the problem with Halloween, it's really only one night and then it's over, compared to Xmas that lasts for months :D

    I'm going to try and just turn all the pumpkins around so you can't see the faces, might make them feel more autumnal

    Enjoyed the Halloween event too. I only realised yesterday you can only buy one candy a day so thought I'd be locked out of the Jack thing but the game is pretty generous and villagers hooked me up for the most part. Have a load of pumpkins in my storage and a plot outside the house so will probably sell them and dig up plot now.
