Bunny hoppin in while hoppin flights. Well it wasn’t what I expected but Gil is back in SOME of our games with a lil deal.
I say some due to if you already have the items, you won’t see the deal. So what IS the deal?
For the cost of 200 donuts, Gil will give you the Krustylu Studios, Cannon, and Dr. Nick. You have less than 5 days to decide, so act quick if you want the deal.
Breakdown of items…
Studio 140 donuts
Cannon 20 donuts
Dr. Nick 90 donuts
So deal is saving you 50 donuts overall.

I was looking for this certain info for a very long time. Thank you and best of luck
Aww man. I’ve been wanting to get Sideshow Mel/Cannon for a while. I’d totally get this deal, but I already have Dr. Nick. Wish the bundle was just Krustylu and the Cannon. Sad day.
Awww too bad. 🙁
Maybe another cool deal will come along later for you. 😉
Don’t forget if your a kindle owner you can buy coins at a discount as I did at Xmas for a discount on donuts now or later if or when a donut deal shows up. This way your saving even more if you don’t have iTunes gift cards that is. 😉
More info on coins from Amazon for kindle users – http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?docId=1001166401
Thanks for the tip! I’m sure our Tappers will appreciate anyway to save $$! 🙂
In a similar vein, you can often get iTunes gift cards at a discount. Just yesterday I bought a $100 iTunes card for $75 from a major seller on eBay. That’s the best I’ve seen, but you can often get at least 15-20% off even from places like Best Buy. Combine that with a deal and the prices become a little more reasonable (although frankly I still think items and donuts in Tapped Out are much too expensive).
I need an opinion! Would it be better to get the Up Up buffet, or Kamp Krusty?
It depends on what you want to do and where the design of YOUR Springfield takes you. Up Up & Buffet is nice (and Limited Time) because characters WILL use it and earn a premium rate for doing so. It’s also cool because it’s a airplane in Springfield! Lots of tappers making runways with it. Plus it earns a decent chunk of change (if you can wait 2 days) and it helps your Gluttony rating.
However, Kamp Krusty comes with a Bart skin. And that skin has some of my FAVORITE animations in the game (roasting marshmallows, burning Krusty, going on a rampage) & the skin earns at a Premium rate (50% more cash & xp). However, it’s got a hefty price tag with it. 200 donuts for Kamp Krusty vs. 90 for Up Up.
While I can’t tell you what to do…it is YOUR decision. It’s YOUR Springfield. If it were me…I would go with the Up, Up & Buffet now for the 90 donuts. It’s Limited Time so most likely after Tuesday it will be gone. Then I would see if I can save those 90 donuts back up over the next few months, (Bonus Level Up helps!) and buy Kamp Krusty then. Since that’s not going anywhere 🙂
Hope that helps & let us know what you decide.
I was going to spend 200 donuts on Bowl-o-rama and Barney since I got the Plow King custom last christmas. Should I buy it or is it better to buy Gill’s offer?
Ooooooh. Tough decision. Myself…I adore Barney. With this offer, you’ll have 2 new premium characters and tasks vs one and his skin w/tasks. Very hard.
I’d say go with the one that’ll make YOU happy most.
Is it me or did they put the cho-choo train at 50 donuts and the pond at 30 donuts with this update? I’ve never seen them at this price before.
I saw them there last night. Not sure when it released but for me…it was prior to the update.
I believe it was the valtwolate file we saw that was set to trigger on the 20th. Giving those that needed them on the wheel a chance to just buy them
Thanks!! Was just wondering.
Not a problem at all 😉
Waterfall please bring back the waterfall EA plllllleeeeeaaaaaaaassssssssssse
It’s funny when Bunny told me there was a Gil deal this morning I had been hoping it was the waterfall since SO many of my favorite Addicted Tappers want it to come back! I do too, for you guys! It’s a neat decoration 🙂
I just bought Krustylou Studios last week 🙁 I wish TSTO had a 30 day price garuntee…
🙁
Have you tried contacting EA?
No, would they maybe let me in on the Gil deal?
Never hurts to ask 😉
Worst they could say is no.
Thanks I tried through the chat. At first they said no such offer exists, then they said no because all purchases are final. That’s ok, I just need to be more patient. Thanks for listening to my vent though.
Well, worth a try. 😉
Anyone else end up with extra spins on the wheel today… or did I accidentally pay for spins i REALLY didn’t need. (Wayyy done with the wheel.)
I’m a little wheeled out myself. Not sure on the extra spins, I haven’t been paying much attention to how many spins I have since I stopped spinning.
I still need those darn heart balloons for the KL ride 🙁 someday… You will be mine.. Oh yes… You will be mine *Wayne’s World voice*
-Mike-
MH5510
Waynes World…party time…excellent. Lol
Schwiiiiing! 😉
hahahaha I needed those balloons too in my B game. Couldn’t get them. Threw my phone at Bunny and told her to try..and said if she gets them on the first try I’m gonna scream. Sure enough…first try…balloons! (and yes I screamed) Moral of the story? Sometimes it helps if you throw your phone at someone else and make them do the dirty work for you. 🙂
aka…it helps if you have somebunny by your side 😉
That’s hilarious…today I was in my moms Singing Monsters game, and she needed help breeding a monster, and so I told her which ones to breed, and she needed help, so I did it for her, and she bred this rare monster in her first try, and it took me like, fifty times to breed it.
Strange world.
Guess I’m going to start asking random people to spin the wheel. Maybe if I turn on Carrie Underwood, close my eyes, and sing “Jesus take the wheel” I might get those allusive heart balloons.
Lol… it couldn’t hurt.
Lol
Get this: in my misery box (what I call the mystery box) I got Homer BUDDAH! I was psyched…then I used my Homer BUDDAH, and tadah: I got….(drumroll please)…a mystery box! Inside the mystery box?
A tree.
Nice.
Hahaha I’ve had that happen to me. It’s a cruel cruel game!
I know…I was like, ARRRGGGHHHH! ::shakes fist::
That’$ @wesome!!!
One time I opened a mystery box, which had a mystery box, which had a mystery box, which had hedges. I’ve had the weirdest luck with those…
Mine…SIX in a row…$$$…like $250. Lol
If you get a Mystery box inside a Mystery box, is it really a mystery? That tis the question
Hence the reason I call it the “Misery Box” 😉
Me too! So much misery in the misery box…all excited, open it…
Parking lot.
Tree.
Another box.
Angel topiary (really, I have five!)
Fence.
You suck, box o’ evil.
Well how do you think that poor box feels? Has to be held by mr.burns all the time. People complain about what’s inside. That poor poor box… 😉
Interesting, I do not have any of those items, got a small update but don’t seem to have gill.
Try some basic troubleshooting. See if it triggers him. Also, check in your premiums (Homer Buddha). You should see him there. If not, double check and see if those 3 items are still in your premium for purchase.
What would the basic troubleshooting be? I got the update, but no Gil, and I don’t already have any of those items. Weird…
It happens sometimes, to me a lot, with an update. First try to hard close the app (app manager, close app) and restart TSTO. If that doesn’t help try to hard close the app again and then restart your device. 🙂
Nevermind, I had to restart the App again (even after the update) to get Gil to show up. =)
hahaha glad it worked! 🙂
I have 254 donuts and am on level 38. I do not buy donuts, but have saved them from when I started playing the game. I’d like to buy a few premium items, but I am overwhelmed. Can anyone give me some advice on what I should buy to spend my donuts in the best possible way (I don’t have any premium buildings or characters).
Hi Nicole! I completely agree it can be very overwhelming when it comes to what to spend your donuts on, especially when you’ve worked hard to earn each and every one of them. My suggestion is, don’t feel pressure to buy anything. (unless you want the Up, Up & Buffet or Brandine…those are limited time and will be gone on the 25th) Take your time and make the right decisions. What characters/buildings you might love, someone else might hate. To me when you’re buying premium it’s a very personal decision on what you buy. The items/characters need to fit your Springfield.
We do have some helpful articles you can read when looking to see if a character/building/decoration is worth the investment. We’ve broken down every item in the game in our Premium Guide, which you can find here.
We’ve also got a post where Bunny, Wookiee and I picked our Top 10 premium items. So you can see what we would buy here.
Wookiee took us through what he would do with a Tray of Donuts here.
And we’ve got what our readers picked as their best and worst Character/Building combos here.
And finally you can see the readers picks for the best and worst character and building here.
Hope that helps you make the best decisions and good luck! 🙂
Hi bunny you floppy ear’s cutey heehee
How could I get to see your creative design’s in your towns to inspire me some more :-))))
Send me your origin ID to TSTOAddictsblog@gmail.com 😉
My A town is maxed and then some (just look at requests #. Lol)
My B town is almost there too. (B town is where I create the most.)
Hi addicts, how come you don’t have a blog stats as I would really like to know your current views 🙂
We do not like to focus on stats. That becomes too much of a focus for many others. For us…it’s more about having fun and giving help, content, and amusement to our readers. 😉
Amen Sister!!!! hahaha
However we did share some by the numbers stats last week. You can check out that post here 🙂
I have a somewhat related question: I just leveled up and inlieu of the next level I got the mystery box with one to three donuts. I unluckily chose one then accidentally paid the 50k to find two. I should have two extra donuts. However, I don’t but am still out the 50k. Is it worth it even bringing this up to EA? I have already had to play the rollback through lvl 38, am consistently seeing the Bart screen, and am now losing donuts? Although I have been playing since Halloween 2012 I am thinking its time to find another game. I am getting more frustration than enjoyment at this point. And isn’t that the whole point of his game? Entertainment, not adding more frustration to my daily life.
Ps. Daily reader of this site, I absolutely love it.
First of all…thanks for being a part of Addicts. We love our readers. In my opinion, honestly…yes…contact EA. They are few handling millions so things may take a lil time to resolve, but they are great at doing all they can and also compensation where it applies. It helps the entire community when issues are reported. They are made aware if it is a serious one and how far spread to what devices. Makes it easier on their end to pinpoint and resolve issues. It’s worth a try, especially since you’re invested in the game. Screenshot when possible issues. It comes in handy.
Let us know how it goes. 😉
Ps Bunny I love yet again the design you’ve done in your tsto artistic addict town it’s beautiful and I’ve seen something like it but can’t recall where at the moment (not enough caffeine yet) however yours was much larger scale and more detailed for sure. Keep up those artistic bunny creations because I am aw inspired when I see them. Thank you again for accepting the invite I sent awhile back. 🙂
Bob was also in your town but I got the bugger. 😉
Well thanks 😉
I do love to play and create in my B town. So many ideas…so lil time to put them into place. Doesn’t help I bounce around from area to area. Eventually I’ll complete it all then move on back to reconstruction in my A town. 😉
Your very welcome. Your Btown should be named Bunnys Artistic Hideaway by the way. lol 😉
Oooooh I like that name 😉
I would be interested but I already have DR Nick. What a bummer.
I am on two kindle fires one older & one HD. My older one had the update but no Gil my newer one (HD) did have Gil with sideshow Mel bubble above his head but did not register in task manager. My older kindle often to get the things to fully work I have to remove and redownload again, set settings for donut spends etc to get it to fully update. Or wait a day to few days for it to work its self out. Just my experience (I was a apple tapper before Halloween I don’t miss my phone Tappin).
Thank you for this post or I wouldn’t have known to log on my HD toy to get the deal to pop. I’ll be Waiting on that post missy Alissa 😉
Happy Tappin
Hahaha I’m working on it I promise! Coming very very soon! 🙂
The amazing Alissa has done it again, your honestly a super hero. 🙂
http://tstoaddicts.com/2014/02/20/a-gil-of-a-deal-is-this-gil-deal-worth-your-donuts/
Who me?! Nah I just love helping you guys! But hey if you wanna call me a Super Hero i’m good with that. Can my super power be teleportation? 🙂
lol sure but I still think time travel would be a neat power to have especially with TSTO and it’s limited time goodies. 😉
I had the same issue with it not showing up in my game even though I didn’t own any of the items. I restarted my device and the game and it appeared. Thought id share for anyone having the same issue.
Sigh, maybe EA will listen and offer reduced deals for those of us who have part of the existing deal. Like others, I have Krustylu, but not Dr. Nick or the cannon. So they could offer those two (110) for 75!
Almost like making a deal with Gil. Counter his offer? I like it 🙂
I don’t see the promo in my town but it’s ok cause they are my least fav so I will for next promo and update!!!
Do you have any of the characters/items offered? Dr. Nick, Krustylu or the Cannon? If you have even 1 of those items the deal won’t be offered to you. 🙂
However, I too am looking forward to the next promo…I’ll be thrilled if they run another donut deal! 🙂
i’m hoping for a Gil deal that includes the whale and yes we need to see Gil more! Now, if we only had a level update! I am so ready for 39!
You mean there’s a level that comes after 38?! I feel like we’ve been stuck on it forever!
We’ll hopefully we’re at least providing you with some entertainment while you wait for the next Level 🙂
Alissa, between you, Wookie and Bunny and TSTO …..I am very entertained!!! I love love love this site!!! : )
What am I? A clown? Here for your amusement? Oh wait…I guess I am. 😉
Just wait till we break out the unicycle and juggling act! 😉
somebody give the Fluffy One some water Please!!! Jump lil bunny jump!! ; ) j/k
Bwahahahah. I’m in the air. Poor travelers trapped with me as it is. Now you wanna add “water” ?
“News at 11…flight had to make emergency landing as fluffy eared Addicts Asylum Patient Zero wouldn’t stop hopping from seat to seat and trying to get the passengers to do the Bunny Hop”
400 friend requests????? You popular Bunny you! 🙂
I blame it on the water… 😉
Lil ol’ me? Nah 😉
Oh man, fail on me. If only I waited… I bought the krusty studios just a few days ago. And I don’t have dr nick yet :'(
Ouch! Unfortunately, we had no way of knowing this was coming. I wish we did so we could have warned you! 🙁
Is this deal worth it? Do I finally have to purchase some donuts? Will that start a chain reaction?
So many questions so little time… 🙁
Tune in next time for the exciting conclusion… 😉
Haha… Funny Alissa… 🙂 But seriously though… Updates was downloaded on my game but no Gil? I haven’t got any of those items yet and maybe it needs to be triggered by another character?
Hmm it should be an auto trigger. You sure you don’t have Dr. Nick, Krustylu OR the Cannon? If not try hard closing the app and restarting it. That usually helps trigger the updates for me.
PS I’m working on a “is it worth it?” post right now. 😉
Gil just pop up after the 10th time logging in… Thanks Alissa…
Glad it worked! 🙂
Hmm, any Idea what else is in this Update?
Going to check into the files now and see if anything else has changed. But looks like it’s just Gil and the ability to buy the Train and the pond for donuts. (although I think that hit last night)
Is it a good deal, Bunny? Are we saving money?
You’re always saving money lol It is Gil after all!
I think separately, this would be 250 donuts Nick(90), canon (20), & the studioSSM Combo is 140…off to look at the premium guides (I’m currently holding onto my donuts for LuannCrackerFactory and am undecided.
Well, I went for it because last time I missed out on the deal, thinking it would be available for the x amount of days it was offered, and then it disappeared! EA gave me 25 donuts for missing out, but I wanted the sign and the brewery…so I went for it before it closed out. Hi, Dr. Nick!
We need more Gil!
I agree 🙂
