Shovels

Shovels.
I don't need 1 or 2 but I need at least 5, when I reached the next expansion anyway.
Is this a random item or what can I do to receive it?
Does anyone know please?

Yes can someone please let us know how we can get shovels!!!
I've been planting, delivering, fishing, feeding etc and where's the shovels???

yeah I don't know lol. I feel like a broken record on this forum because anytime someone brings up the obvious lack of shovel, I say like I always do, I have not received one from a delivery or drop of any kind since I first started the game months ago. Nor have I actually seen any for sale in anybody's shops or in the newspaper. They seems like a rare gem these days. The equivalent of the diamond dragon in DS if you play that game you'll know what I mean.

So I sure hope that they fix this issue soon because I know we aren't the only ones who need them!

Expanding to the mine is the best way to get shovels. I got plenty and cleared my whole farm that way. Did some mining with the axes too. :)

After expanding to the mine, I also get more shovels and pickaxes drop from deliveries. Before that, I got land deeds or maps but now definitely getting more tools.

I'm already working my way towards the mine. Thanks for your replies eveyone :)
