Hector recently moved out of town, and I got his goodbye letter in the mail when I started up the game today.
Animal Crossing has its own version of Black Friday (Day After Thanksgiving) sales. It’s called Sale Day, and Tom Nook celebrates by selling grab bags of random items for 2,014 bells each.
Every bag contains three items, and I bought three grab bags. Here’s what they contained:
- Fan, heart shirt, tiger pinwheel.
- Manor wall, No. 2 shirt, old flooring.
- Flower pinwheel, diner tile, baby bear.
Buying grab bags is a good way to get some pinwheels, since they’re hard to come by the rest of the year. It’s too bad Sale Day didn’t make it into later Animal Crossing games.
I soon found Crazy Redd’s tent set up, but I wasn’t interested in buying from him today. However, there is a Crazy Redd glitch that only works on Sale Day. To see a video of the glitch, click here.
I had a chat with Baabara, and she was the same snooty sheep she always was. She bragged that her house was the best and classiest in town, while saying mine needs a lot of work.
A chat with Ursala revealed that I haven’t spoken to her in four months! A bit surprising, but then again, she’s never been my favorite villager. She’s not someone I would actively seek out.
Gulliver was down on the beach, so I spoke with him and woke him up. As a reward, he gave me a Tokyo Tower.
Over by the wishing well, Belle tried to sell me an arched window for 8,332 bells, including handling charges. What handling? She’s trying to milk me of all my money. Bovine, please.
Hank asked me for a new catchphrase, so I told him to say “Mr. Chicken.”
I then met my newest neighbor: Curly the pig. I had him in City Folk before; he’s pretty cool.
Finally, I stopped at the post office to mail away some fossils and I then headed for home. See you next time!
