Should I Spend Donuts On Howard’s Flowers?

Valentine’s Day has arrived in Springfield!  But, with all of the new Valentine’s premium items that are limited-time it may be overwhelming trying to decide which items to buy and what to pass on. With that limited-time label on items I know it can be tempting to just buy everything you can. But, have no fear! That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth your donuts & what you might want to hold off on.

Wondering if you should add Howard’s Flowers to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button, let’s break down the Pros and Cons of adding this Flower Shop to your Springfield.

Howard's FlowersBuilding: Howard’s Flowers
Donut Price: 70 donuts
Dimensions: 7×4
Payout: $200, 17xp/ 10hrs
Conform-O-Meter: Consumerism +10

Pros:
-Old building making a return!  Woo-hoo for bringing back old items
-Not overwhelming in size so it will fit easily in your downtown area (or anywhere in Springfield)
-Adds to Consumerism! (one of the hardest to max out in the game!)
-Colorful building, brightens up Springfield!

Cons:
-No characters or questline associated with it.
-Unlike Up, Up & Buffet…no characters will use/interact with Howard’s Flowers.
-It was free last year (well it cost Valentine’s Day currency..but not donuts)
-No Animation

Final Thought:
Personally, this is a building I plan to buy..but only because I’ve coveted it for so long in my neighbor’s towns.  I wasn’t smart enough last year to be as addicted to TSTO as I am now, so I missed out on getting it!  However, if you’re limited on donuts this might be one you’ll want to pass on.  While it’s a neat looking building it’s just that…a building.  No one interacts with it, and it just sits in your Springfield.  So if you’re limited on what you can spend donuts on I’d suggest passing on this one and getting the Up, Up, & Buffet instead.
Just remember whatever you decide this is a LIMITED-TIME building and once it’s gone, it’s gone…so be sure to get it before the event is over if you’re thinking about it.

  2. So glad I got this last year.. I hate the consumerism comform o meter. I’ve got all the freemium buildings and some premium buildings but still need a total of 4 kwik e marts to max out the rating.

    • Hmm do you have Ferris Wheels? I know they’re premium but it can replace the need to have a ton of Kwik-E-Marts in town….drives me crazy because I never know which one the characters are shopping in!

      • I hadn’t realised Ferris wheels were consumerism. I don’t know what else I thought it could have been. I’ve been wanting one but not been able to justify the donuts when there are other premium items to spend my limited donuts on. But consumerism points pushes the Ferris wheel up the list on what premium item I want next 🙂

        • 🙂 I have 2. They look much better on each end of my boardwalk than too many Kwik-E-Marts in town. Here’s more info on the Ferris Wheel. If you end up getting it be sure to show us what you did with it! 🙂
