This is a fun idea but the suspense is ****ing me not knowing what other oven is on Day 10. Could it be the Mighty’s?! It’s hard not knowing and passing up on and settling for discounted Forever’s. Are we allowed to speculate? I have a pretty good assumption of what 2 of the floor deco items are.

*Edited in desktop mode because the question marks that pop up in place of the apostrophe’s on mobile view highly bother me.

[Daengel]

Day 4 looks like a Toy Line and its original price is 32k so they better not U-ing the thing and charge people with gems. I'm getting sick of these sales that only offered things you could buy with gems. I'm saving my gems to speed up my cooking to be able to catch up with this back to back goals schedule, Your Highness. Beggin' you for mercy okay?

For the question mark issue - you need to go into your phone settings and turn off Smart Punctuation.

You'll never even miss it, I promise; all that option does is change your punctuation so that it's more visually pleasing. It's funny because 99% of people don't even know notice the change or that the option exists until it offers trouble, lol.

Thank you for the tip, Annira! I had no idea that setting/option even existed until you mentioned it. I also didn't know that having punctuations looking more appealing was a thing on a phone/computer 😆

ETA: I turned it off before submitting my post and oh, it's just wonderful that I don't have that question mark trouble anymore. Thank you again!

[DawnLovesDD]

Why is Toy Line one of the prizes as it was last years goal? I would never even use this item. We wanted older items such as releasing all the Christmas/Winter tables and chairs which I won't name them all but just release every one please. Why does it have to be so difficult? This is supposed to be for fun not work. Also Winter Wedding was offered last year for sale as Shimmery Partygoers was offered last year. Please stop bringing the same items back over and over. If it's been available last 2-3 years then it shouldn't be offered. We want stuff we haven't been able to get. thank you

I am hoping the Santa Shop oven, Snowman stove, and Snowman Fountain will come out please and thank you!!!!!

If you need suggestions, there is a post i created for Christmas and Winter suggestions with plenty of requests. Such as Garden Glow Tree, L.I.T. Trees, Urban Palm, Candy Cane Bench, Snowy Fence, Peppermint Couch, Master Cake Decorator, Tiered Winter Cake, Love Ice Sculpture, Santa Hat Display, Light-Up Tree, Magic of Christmas - Please release all of these items before Christmas is over!

I really like the idea of this event but I wish they hadn't put item(s) on sale that have previously been on sale already this season.

[AlGutAr]

Am I the only one not liking the 1 stuff per day u.u ? I'm sorry but I find that exhausting, I mean, the game is already exhausting with so much goals and no rest :( now, unless u have lots of gems and don't give a wha, it's too painful not to know if it's OK to spend your treasured gems or not :[

And I also appreciate the good sized gift n.n

[Burntdinner]

It’s really a shame that everything that was previously “coins” is now gems. The only way to really enjoy the game and make the most of its offerings is to have to purchase gems and more often.

[AnnirasSweets]

I like this 12 Days set up, makes me look forward to opening my game every day. I was sorely tempted by the new expansion and if they offer another, I'm sure I'll be equally tempted. The timing is the only reason I'm not snapping them up!

I'm not sure if we're getting an actual Holiday Sale or not and I would be so upset with myself if we do get a big sale and I didn't have the gems to purchase the items I wanted because I spent them all on expanding. So I guess I'll just have to hold off on expanding until the next time they're offered at a discount. Oh well, it's something to look forward to I suppose, lol.

[pixiegamer]

Came here to check if Day 11 was similar in Bakery as it was in Restaurant, and it looks like it's the same principle. Coins are on offer for 20% less than their original price, but you also get 20% fewer coins - effectively, no "deal" :p

At least they're consistent across both games? But it would have been nice to see an actual discount if we're getting 12 Days of Deals :(

I was just going to say the same thing. It's not a deal. It's just a cheaper option to spend in gems but also less coins. It would've been nice to see the same amount of coins as normal for less gems.

[DawnLovesDD]

I had no clue what the Holiday Chest would have and it?s 25 verses 24 gems. I gave it a shot and got Presented Puppy. I am furious as this is an item I have currently available for 20k and I didn?t want and sold it when got during goal. Now I wasted 25 gems for it? This flat out makes me mad. If you?re gonna charge 25 gems let us know what?s in crate and make it rare old items not an item that was from goal last year or year before. This 12 day sale was a joke. Everything is recent of had been sold recently. The only thing I got was the 1st powdered appliance and even that one isn?t exciting. This sale should have had old and rare items and this crate is a joke. I want my 25 gems back.
I spend a lot of money on gems and I am so seriously ready to leave this game. How do they justify a very recent item that is 1x1 for 25 gems??? I wanna scream.

[AnnirasSweets]

So.... did anyone receive any sort of pop up or info as to what exactly is meant to be inside of the Premium Holiday Crate? Because, I sure didn't and I feel like 25 gems is pretty steep to ask players to shell out blindly.

Agree completely about the no-info chest! I was expecting/hoping for new, exclusive items so naturally I was super disappointed as well.

That said, do you know what place prize the Presented Puppy was so I can add it to the first post?

[HayDa2112]

I also did not know these were going to be U items. I used 25 gems on this and got the ornamental shopping.

[DawnLovesDD]

I didn?t screen shot it but it was be 4th I?m sure. It?s so small and not worth putting on floor cause can?t even see it. That?s why I sold it originally. Crate items should be larger items for one when we are spending our personal money. And two why sell a very recent item that is currently for sale at 20k for 25 gems. More than a normal crate? I have tried to stay calm with this game but this has me mad. I don?t spend my money to be taken advantage of like this. I knew I should have waited. How do they get away with putting a crate out with no knowledge of what?s in it for more gems than a normal one and giving this item?
I am so ready to dispute funds paid for gems with Apple 🍎 to get them back.

Again this is from same goal and from last year or year before. How do they justify 25 gems for this? We should get our gems refunded back to account with gems and they can take the item.

[pixiegamer]

�� Well now that's got to be the most expensive crate I've ever seen here. No way am I opening any more of those.

Oh good gravy...

This is absurd. You can count me in the number of people who firmly WON'T be opening this box (or its Restaurant Story counterpart). U-decor offered during sales is one thing (and generally appreciated), but NONE of them have ever been priced as high as 50 gems apiece and it's abhorrent that we would be charged that much FOR A RANDOM CHANCE AT ITEMS THAT HAVE ALREADY EXISTED IN THE GAME.

It's cheap, lazy, and greedy. Do better, S8; if you want our gems, this ain't it.

[KadeeDid]

😧 Well now that's got to be the most expensive crate I've ever seen here. No way am I opening any more of those.

Would have been better if they had not "fixed it". I don't bother with these. I have accidentally bought something but never on purpose. Makes you appreciate games where you can set it to alert before any gem purchases. Sometimes the game jumps and my finger accidentally hits a spot.
