Since I started to play, I've managed to save almost 670 gold after buying my 2nd nest. Today I accidently lost 250 gold on a trap on buying food. After I lost it and decided to stop playing DS, I decided I needed to spend my gold. Can't just leave it there after all the hard work of saving for so long. I used them to speed up breeding and hatching time on island/firestorm combo. I didn't get a diamond but I got almost a dozen rares. Ironically enough, those 18,000 foods I accidently bought come handy now. Yes, I was being sarcastic. LOL! I'm out of DS for good! Can still be found in BS and PHS though!!
