Weeding Day 2017

Yesterday, carpeting was the premium item at Re-Tail. So I checked my storage and found four leftover special carpets to sell, from the ice, Pavé, and egg sets.

Reese: Since I'm paying premium for all of these items today...the total is an amazing 56,928 bells! OK?Today was Weeding Day, so I made sure to visit Leif at the event plaza before 7 p.m.

Leif: It's the last Friday of April...and that means it's Weeding Day!Believe it or not, this was my first time pulling weeds for Leif! For the first Weeding Day (in 2014), my town was clean and I just participated to unlock the topiaries. In 2015 and 2016, I missed Leif entirely! But I caught him this time.

Leif told me to pull the weeds in town and then return to him. After pulling one, I checked back and he told me I had 11 more to go.

Leif: Ummm, the number of nasty weeds remaining in this otherwise beautiful town is...exactly 11!
This town goes to 11.

So, I went around town and picked all the remaining weeds. Leif then congratulated me on a job well done.

Leif: Ah, Jeff! Congratulations! There are now no more weeds left anywhere in town! We did it!
We?

He rewarded me with a “town cleanup prize,” which was a cosmos fan. Leif claimed to have made it himself, by hand, but I think he was just clowning around.

Leif: The cosmos fan! Handmade, I should add, by yours truly! I hope you like it.
Great, now it’s all mime! I mean, mine!

Here’s a look at the cosmos fan in my house:

Is this electric, or does it run on flower power?

And up at the Emporium, I saw that the gardening center was closed for the day. That’s because Leif can’t be in two places at the same time. 😛

The gardening corner is closed today due to an event! -LeifAnd just before 7:00, I used my Booker character to speak with Leif at the plaza. Leif said that Forest was already clean and weed-free, but he still gave Booker a gift: a lily record player.

Leif: The lily record player!
So this will play Lily’s records?

Later on, I got a letter in the mail from Leif. He sent me a stool fertilizer sample.

Enjoy your fertilizer sample! This new fertilizer is a real game changer. It does more than give flowers and fruit a nutrient boost--it can put the color back into dried-out trees. here, try this sample! -From LeifMy recent dream visitors have been Ian from Somerset and Chris from Windburg. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend! I hope you all had a successful Weeding Day!

  1. I always forget about the premium items at Re-Tail, it’s a solid way to make money without time travelling, hacking, etc..

    Thank you for reminding me!

  2. Heh, didnt expect to bump into my name here! My weeding day was like yours in 2014, clean town so i unlocked his stuff. I started playing recently and your dream suite blog is really fun! I found some really cool dream towns (including yours) thanks to it. Thanks!
