SALE: 2024 Bakery Story Sales Thread

[anemos]

Wanted to share my thoughts on the latest sale...

Pros:

- New items

- I've always LOVED this porting for sales
- Hope to see more of it in future sales

- ALL items from the mystery box are listed for sale

- Box items out of the box will always be appreciated

Cons:

- New table wildly overpriced

- How can any of us hope to purchase enough for a set at 10g each???

- They didn't port over the entire set of items from the RS release

- Why no chair or decos?
- The Coral Reef Chair is amazing and I'd love to have it in BS
- Can't buy any 'sets' of items without a chair

- Again, relisting an ancient box whose contents has been listed so many times

- Why no newer boxes like the start of the year?
- Underwater Crate or Mermaid Box would've fit perfectly here

- No appliances offered

- There hasn't been any offered this month despite so many we've yet to see
- Lots of those unseen Echos could've fit into these themed sales
- Or they could've given new Echos that were first released in July

Agreed with all the constructive suggestions here, especially the table being at 10 Gems per piece is way out of reach for us players. Even if we'd love to buy more we simply can't because of how steep the price was..

Please LOWER the price of the port-over items, Thank you.

P.S. If possible please include the Coral Reef Chair in the next sale or simply add-on to this sale would be Great! Again I appreciate your effort to make all the players happy and giving the fresh air we all needed for a while. Can't wait for next sale!

I'll ask about the Coral Reef Chair and lowered prices. I also hate when incomplete sets are offered; it drives me bonkers x(

Come on... where is the 1st Prize decoration Beach Hut?

All the previous individual box sales had 1st Prize included on sale, why not this one. Seriously

Why S8 like to leave things out like that, it vexes players all the time so can you all stop doing this nonsense and just include the full complete set if you guys want to do the individual out of the box sales???

P.S. Bakery story out of the box sales used to be great priced, complete and exciting, this idea of excluding items out is dense and doesn't make sense in terms of giving players a chance to collect the items that they want. It further repulses players' interest (Due to duplicates listing & missing items) and doesn't make people want to spend gems to buy anymore I will be honest with you guys, if you're reading this like you claim you do**

Anyone know if there might be a expansion sale again? I have 78 gems and I want to buy the 15x18 for 40 gems but maybe I should wait for the discount

These sale prices are ridiculous lately. Im not going to pay my hard earned gems on these overpriced items.

While there's no guarantee of anything in this game, we've always had a large Back to School sale at the end of August or beginning of September.

The sales typically include discounted expansions, but like I said, there's no guarantees with anything. Personally, I'd try to put off expanding until after the next big sale but that's just my opinion. From what I can see we've had expansions discounted in all but one back to school sale in the past 5 years. I'm hoping that means we'll also get them this time but...

Here's some links to the previous back to school sales so you can see for yourself what's typical for them and make your decision from there: 2023 sale, 2022 sale, 2021 sale, 2020 sale, 2019 sale.

Why are they only releasing beach themed items? It’s been all summer. There are other “summery” items that have been asked for.
