Can some one confirm if Black Friday sale will be for everyone in all games or just who got the pop up? I got it in bubble mania , farm2 and home design !

We get the at least 40% off sales in all of TLs games. Even those who never got sales or find them infrequent. They push them out to everyone! Gonna be too fun. I'll be broke that's for sure. I don't know about you all but I have no shame in looking at the clock and counting down the hours. Hoping they'll pass quickly.....

I'm super excited for the gem sale.

This will be my first Christmas season playing Bakery Story, and I can not wait to decorate with the cute stuff they come out with. I'm gonna try to do it with mainly coins, but I will probably buy maybe 50 or so gems tomorrow depending on what the prices go down to.

This sale is not normally a gem sale... They tend to bring back old LTOs and only sell them for 24 hours... So, hopefully you have some gems saved up to get things!! :) I've been baking like mad man! :)

It's usually both. I've gotten a 40% off gem sale in all games for the last two years on Black Friday. I would be very surprised if they don't have the same this year.

Guys, you don't even know...I've been counting down to this day for 3 months O_O

I think last years was throughout the weekend? But gem sale was only that day. This popup has given me a great amount of comfort, lol.

Not true, they do it again at Christmas :) I just moved into a new place this week so I'm choosing to spend my $$ on decorating rather than this game and hopefully at Christmas they will have another sale like last yr.

I had no real idea as to what I was doing w these games last yr at this time but believe me w all the talk I've heard about Black Friday sale I've been saving money and I just got a nice refund from the iTunes Store so bring it on! Can't wait for the fun to start and unlike real life Black Friday sales these items won't run out and we don't need a number��

If you aren't seeing a popup I wouldn't worry about it, black Friday is happening for everyone in the games. You can visit blog.teamlava.com and there is a post about black Friday if that will make you feel any better.

What time does the sale start (PCT time zone)? Not 00:00 on Friday right? Perhaps 12:00? I have no idea how to count down so I might get some sleep ="=

I just asked the same question. Gem sales should start at midnight Pacific Time, but I have no clue about the LTOs, content sales. Like OnCloudDivine told me, it would only make sense for them to start at the same time if they are 24 hour sales, but who really knows with TL.

11-29-13, 12:14 AM
Looking at last years' threads, the update posts were created at 12:30 am PST! Meaning there's hope for content being released at reset!!

HOWEVER, last year also had price adjustments halfway through the day, so I won't be buying right away just in case prices go lower...although, could they raise prices? They wouldn't do that...right? O_O I guess if there's something I have to have, I should buy it...

They didn't give a refund after the adjustment? I thought it was a mistake and didn't affect the players much @@

They did give a refund, don't get me wrong. But it did take some time in order to issue those refunds with limited staff after the holiday, meaning any players that had few to little gems wouldn't have been able to make any other purchases before the sales ended.

I honestly wouldn't put anything past TL... but anything I HAVE to have, like you said, I will buy right away. The highest item was what, 40 gems last year when the "real prices" were added. So anything above that, I will be hesitant.

Comparing all these items to the items in Restaurant Story... why should I buy gems for RS when I could buy all the better items in Bakery Story?

I agree that the duck fountain is incredible, I wished for it long time ago lol. I bought it along with mother gazebo, and fruit fountain, and 3 small streams with stones around, i dont know what it's called, the one with 4g only. Not sure if I should buy barista counter and paster sofa or not, u know the 44g one. Anyone gives me advice :)

Does anyone know/remember if the gem sale will last all weekend or had I better stock up today whilst they are cheap?

I want too many things!!!!! Bs obviously has the best sale...ds is kind of lame and rs only has a few good ones. Good job TL!! Love the bs sale :)

Now, if only I can survive Black Friday in retail as an employee ...wish me luck!

Bought 580 gems and bought to my heart's content! I already had a few of the items from past LTO's and last year's sale. I bought the Fairy Grotto, Fairy Kitchen, Fruit Fountain, Garden Tea Party, 4 x Water Gardens, Coffee Break, Mother's Gazebo, Pastry Hub, Autumn Feast and Duck Fountain. Was hoping they would offer more stuff from the Mother's Surprise, Pastel Package and Tea Treasure boxes but oh well!

So did I girlfriend, so did I! I have two duck ponds, two pastry hubs, the animals fruit pond thingy, the mothers gazebo, fairy kitchen, five more water gardens,, two fairy grottos, garden tea party...I think that's all. I already had the coffee break and candy carousel. Oh I have two of the pastry couches. Maybe something else. I'm down to 119 gems out of 580. Whew! Those went fast.

For once, you did everything right TL. Awesome job. Only thing that could make it better is a day 2 of sales. Or maybe the Eiffel or Lotus fountain. I saved up 100 gems from baking recipes and I am thrilled to be able to spend them.

So sad :(

I have a question: are more items being added throughout the day or have all these items been there for sale for the same price all day? I rather buy all my gems at once than go back and forth buying a few more the whole day.

11-29-13, 08:13 AM
Got the fairy kitchen and pastry hub right away since I wanted those things forever, thanks TL. Wanted the lotus fountain but since it's not available got a duck fountain, which is pretty cute too. And then the mother's day gazebo since it was only 13 gems. Still have some gems left and contemplating what else I want.

Hanakimi87
11-29-13, 08:34 AM
Ahhh I'm torn.

I can't tell you how many times I've purchased the Cake abd Tea box. I have a dainty piano, two jam stands, three icing counters, two sweet lamps and a tea display. This whole time what I've really wanted is the sampler cart,mainly because I thought the pastry hub was impossible to get. Now I'm wondering if I should get it for the sake of having it. But...

Part of me is like, "Yay!" and the other part wonders what the point is in buying boxes in the first place.

Ok, I've got about 190 gems (it's times like this that make you want to cry after having accidentally tapped 'open extra oven slot'). I want the pastry couch, and the coffee break looks tempting. Space is limited though. Bah. And I also want to save for Christmas just in case...

You know you wanna buy it.......

Do it, do it, do it!

I have four pianos from the cake and tea box, along with multiples of every other item. Minus the sampler cart. I got it on the first Try on another account. When I saw the sampler Cart I think a tiny tear slipped out of the corner of my eye. This box and the one with the duck pond tortured me for over a year.

If you really want it, get it. Some new items may come Monday and next month. But with the prices being around $5.99 for a decent item gems can be bought again. I regretted not finding a way to get the fairy grotto last year. Now I have two. I just bought that dumb Statue of Liberty stand by accident. I'm done for the day.

I got the duck pond, garden tea party and pastry hub on another account. I'm trying hard to not buy more gems. With those the barista counter doesn't seem as important as it was before.

But who am I really kidding? I know ill give in and buy it at the last moment. So many drinks to master still. The drinks would look great near him. He's a cutie!

11-29-13, 09:07 AM
Ahh! I can finally add some decent items to my bakery without opening 10 boxes and getting the 4th place prize every single time! I already got the barista counter and pastry hub. Think I might get the gelato stand or fairy kitchen as well. I've been coveting the pastry hub FOREVER and always tried the cake and tea box to get it and now I finally have it. Very happy indeed! :D What are you guys getting?

I wound up buying the barista counter and the gelato stand. I'd love the autumn feast if it wasn't any sort of theme. It had a very short shelf life especially for me in SoCal where we don't even really have autumn. Still have a few gems to play with.

I regretted not finding a way to get the fairy grotto last year. Now I have two. I just bought that dumb Statue of Liberty stand by accident. I'm done for the day.

I got the duck pond, garden tea party and pastry hub on another account. I'm trying hard to not buy more gems. With those the barista counter doesn't seem as important as it was before.

But who am I really kidding? I know ill give in and buy it at the last moment. So many drinks to master still. The drinks would look great near him. He's a cutie!

You're an enabler! ;) I totally feel you on becoming teary on getting the sampler cart. My life will be fulfilled at that point.

My other problem is that my space is limited, and I don't want to use gems to expand (but at this point the next expansion is for 20 mil so it'll be a while for me to rack up another 10m in coins. I don't think I'd be able to do both the coffee break and the pastry hub.

Does anyone remember how much the pastry couch was when it first came out?

I was thinking about the Summer Shack thing, just for the sake of having it. I want everything really, but they do all add up, and I don't want to be wiped out before next Wednesday. Watch TL put out something awesome. I'll still probably get the candy carousel and fruit fountain, if nothing else.

Wait, some of you guys are saying there will be a Monday sale as well? Is that true? Will there be different items? And then for the Christmas sale... do they usually do different items than the Thanksgiving Black Friday sale?? I picked up the Mother's Gazebo, Fairy Kitchen, and Dessert Castle as well. Still got 70 gems left, trying to decide if I should save them...

For those saying they don't have space, I have the biggest size bakery available and I STILL don't have enough space for all my decorations. Trust me, I have about 90% of my decor in storage because there will never be enough space! I theme my bakery though so it makes no sense to me gave everything out on display at the moment but what I love is being able to decide how I want to decorate next and having those particular items I've stored available whenever I want it. I guess what I'm saying is, but everything you want and just keep in storage for the time being. Right now my bakery is autumn-themed and then it will be Christmas so pretty much all the items I just bought will not be on display til probably early January.

11-29-13, 01:54 PM
Even if it's a glitch, prices need to be made uniform. Otherwise it's unfair. If some players are getting 35gem prices then all players must bave the ability to buy at that price. And those who have already bought at a higher price need to get refunds. I hope I don't get banned for saying something critical, but this is a matter of customer satisfaction, right?

Hanakimi87
11-29-13, 02:00 PM

Based on the other thread it looks like the items are being advertised at lower amounts but when the users make their purchase they're being charged the same amount as the rest of us (the regular prices).

You really gotta ask? Anything less than six would be a crime! Would have gotten more but the Statue of Liberty ruined my design plan. When it came out I was a kinda newbie player and only got one.

I always had this idea plan where I'd have them going from one end of the bakery to the other. And the clones has to walk between them, as if they were crossing a bridge. Now they are just surround my duck ponds because I can't get more.

So....go for broke!

I really only object to her having the wrong arm holding the torch. But they also have the subway cupcakes the wrong colors to go with which trains they're supposed to be for. Way to go, CALIFORNIA!

but right now i've got the grand central clock, the empire state lamp, the broadway sign, a whole bunch of taxi stools, and the nyc ovens and drink machines, so i'm totally happy with her, even if i probably would have rather had the nyc cake from that box. :-)

From what I read in the other thread, it's only being advertised at a lower price, but when people go to make a purchase they are charged the regular (original) amount of gems.

I bought the Pastry Hub over the Coffee Break because I like it better, anytime I'd see Pastry Hub in another bakery I'd pause and look at it, there's something about it, it's so pink and pretty and perfect for a bakery. That's just my taste though. Get whichever appeals to you most.

Got the barista counter! I definitely like spending gems on items I can use year round, even though that autumn feast is amazing. Not sure if I'll spend anymore tonight.

11-29-13, 06:01 PM
Thanks for your input guys. I think I'm starting to lean towards the pastry hub...I think? Ahhhh. I wish it didn't have the baker person on top of it. XD

A neighbor pointed out coffee break is larger though. She was kind enough to put them out on her floor to show me but I'm still back and forth.

My bakery has a pink-yellow theme (outside of holiday themes) so either would work, although pastry hub is certainly more delicate and cute.

creolepraline
11-29-13, 06:05 PM
I keep a pink/yellow, pink/brown or a pink/green theme. I kept my candy carousel, coffee break and Eiffel Tower out at all times. Now the carousel is in for a while as I have no space, the coffee break may have to go because I need to put some Xmas items out. Even with the max space available I'm still unable to fit everything. I want an erratic bakery and it's driving me nuts how semi tidy it is right now. Why can't we have expansions?

Hanakimi87
11-29-13, 06:22 PM

11-29-13, 06:24 PM
Yeah I blew almost 250 gems (had over 300 earned gems saved up) today. I am content to look at some of the items in my neighbor's bakeries (lots of them have the barista counter, for instance), whereas I mostly bought things that are pink/floral/pastry themed. Problem is now my bakery which was formerly decorated in sections prominently featuring orange for the fall is now all messed up and stuffed with random incongruous Black Friday purchases, some of which are highly out of season--may have to shuffle some of them off to storage soon for Christmas decor. Still keeping 50+ gems in store in case that lotus fountain ever shows up for cyber monday or day after Christmas. :P I think last year the items on sale for those days were pretty much the same as Black Friday though.

Some were in a box, but boxes are a chance, you never know what you're gonna get. This is a rare chance to actually get your hands on items you want. Also some of the items didn't come in a box, but were rather sold as Limited Time Offers throughout the years. Some I tink were also regular items that were sold but then removed from the store to make room for new items.

Yup, that could be one of the reason too and it's much bigger when you compared it with the fruit fountain for the same price. I just bought the 275 gems pack. First time in my years of playing! >_< It's so hard to resist! Bought the pastry hub since it's the one I wanted the most and the autumn feast. Now I'm considering coffee break or duck fountain? Sales is ending in less than 2 hours. Oh my! ((((;゚Д゚)))))))

Just to add to earlier complaint, I'm on android, and when I saw prices go down I bought the water garden first and definitely saw my gem count only go down by 3, and when I bought the duck fountain, I saw the little -35 indicator float away when I tapped again to purchase. Perhaps person who saw lower prices but was charged original prices happened to be buying right when they switched?

And in real life, you can go back to a store where you just bought something and often get the difference back if it went on sale. Not always, sometimes they specifically exclude previously purchased items in promotions, but certainly no retailer does that in same day sales. (or I'm just old and remember when they did that.)

Woah, guess not? I bought them, but they were just taken away and my gems given back.. awkward. o.O I'm not too upset, I got everything I REALLY wanted.

Recycling old deals with a higher price tag? LOL. TL, I have 300+ gems to spend and many others on this board have mentioned wanting additional LTOs so they can spend whatever they have left. Want to make some more money? Give us new LTOs for similar prices. It's only logical. My brother bought me an iTunes card for Christmas so I'd rather spend these gems now so I can use the card later. Come on TL hear us! Sales have been awesome so far!

And I wouldn't mind smaller box items for a few gems.. Hint hint. :)

Was thinking that there will be more goodies during the weekends. Guess I was wronged. 40% off on gems pack, 30% off on decorations are gone and the items are much lesser now. Bummer! :(

This is weird! Only some of the items left and for a price no one will pay? Idk what I was waiting for exactly but this isn't it! Still very happy with my 35 gem Barista Counter though. Would a mod explain the price changes last night that have been talked about?

Hanakimi87

From what others had posted this sale was different t than last year. I saved gems, so disappointed. Would have spent all but had read items released throughout weekend. Just expected same.

11-30-13, 09:42 AM
I guess I should have spend every last gem, had just read sale would continue.
Anyone know if there will be different items for sale over the weekend? Or is today it? I've waited all day to spend my gems, hesitant to spend them ALL in case I should wait..

Awww I'm kinda bummed that I missed out...I worked on Thanksgiving night, came home and slept 6 hours, then went back to work and pulled a 14 hour shift. I didn't get to purchase any gems during the gem sale, and now half of the items are gone :(

Well I caved and bought the duck pond & candy carousel seeing as I've tried for those two prizes way too many times in the past :rolleyes: was very happy to see my favorite duck pond for sale! I would have thought they'd continue on with the sale like they did last year, but oh well. I'm saving the rest of my gems for Christmas :)

Well last year there was a 40% sale at Christmas and they brought out first and second place prizes from boxes. I'm hoping they will do it again this year :) plus I'm a sucker for xmas decor.

They may bring more things back. They made money off of us. To give more things Monday would mean more money for them, if they're smart. I don't wanna wait until next month for another sale! Give us some Xmas items!

Gosh, I don't have space for Rudolph and his peeps.

Don't let little kids play with your phone, set them up their own shop on a spare/old device. I get nervous when people go near my tablet.

I had lots of near panic attacks when my daughter would go near my ipad. In the name of "helping" Mommie, she's used a bunch of gems in castle, dragon, fashion and here. Anyone who plays dragon knows how irritating it is when am epic super rare is sold. Or when an entire counter with over 100,000 servings of Capp is sold because a counter didnt match the decor.

Now she's my little tip collector. When I ask her to tip for me, she says ain't nobody got time for that. She's five. o.O

I'm sorry, but I burst out chuckling. My gosh! I'd have been miffed. With my daughter I just rolled my eyes and started replacing what she took. Did he do it with the instant cook? What did he say when he realized what he'd done? Jeez!

He LAUGHED. He goes, "Uhh...here's your game back." With this stupid grin on his face because he knew I'd warned him not to touch anything.

Ooh was I mad!

In Dragon Story there is a button where you can buy food for gold, although I don't think anyone uses it intentionally for the most part as it's a total waste. He clicked that and bought 20,000 fireapples or something.

Ouch! That would have a total, you better get your credit card out dude, moment. In dragon i bought food ONCE when I really understood the game better, right before I got my first diamond. I came here asking folks if they ever did it and they ripped me APART. I got a bunch of invites and was told my dragons are all babies and isn't it cute how I like them like that. I told them, uh, I don't have money for food! They were like, dude, you stink as a player. Collect, save, plant, feed, tah dah! Those were the days....

When I first start playing here and didn't understand much I used gems to speed cook, because I didn't know I could block the door.

Oh god, that brings back memories. I didn't have many coins so I asked a friend who'd been playing for a month or so whether I should spend 10 gems for 100k in coins. She wasn't entirely sure but recommended I save my gems. Wise woman.
