Piggy Bank

On Wednesday, I found this “Talking to Myself” post on the bulletin board. It’s about one of the pelicans making sludgy tea for her sister. 😛

-Talking to Myself- My siter said, 'Your tea tastes like sludge!' I'm never making tea for her again. What a grump!

Yesterday, I put some bells into the bank, and I reached a major milestone: I’ve now saved up ten million bells!

Pelly: The current bell balance is 10,000,000.

Today, I received a letter from town hall. They congratulated me on saving ten million bells, and they sent me a gift! I was not expecting this!

Dear Jeff, In honor of the 10,000,000 bells you've saved, we are pleased to give you this commemorative gift. -Forest post office

I opened the gift; it was a piggy bank! I put it in my (mush) bedroom, moving one of my Master Swords to storage to make space for it.

Putting bells into my new piggy bank in Animal Crossing: Wild World.
Chonky piggy!

Each time I use it, I lose one bell. So it actually works, except that you can’t get the money back out. 😛

When I visited Peanut, she was telling me about this trendy harmonica she just bought. She said it was hard to use, so she wished she had just bought bought a discount harmonica instead. 😛

Peanut: It looks like a discount harmonica would've done the trick just as well!

I know this is random, but this made me imagine a new character for a future game: A special character who sells (or gives) you a different musical instrument each time they come to town. Perhaps you’ll hear a faint musical tune while walking in your town, and you have to look for the source (by shaking a tree perhaps). A bird flies down and gives you an instrument. I don’t know, just a thought. 😛

Anyway, Drift asked me to stop by Bones’s house to make a delivery, and I agreed to help out. But almost immediately after ending the conversation with Drift, I saw Bones practically right there! That made the delivery super easy! 😛

Drift and Bones just a few feet apart.

I handed Bones the gift (a red down vest), and then Drift gave me a lab wall for helping out. I wish all requests were this easy!

I’ll be back with another entry next week. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! ❄️
