Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Here we are in the middle of Act 2 and something in our game has restarted today…the Shopkeeper’s Challenges!
So let’s take a look at what you’ll need to do for 5 days during week 3 to earn bonus crafting currency and 20 bonuts!
Normally I wait until Tuesday to post these, just so I can verify the first couple of days…and make sure they match what we see in the files. BUT because of the wrong wording, everyone’s having trouble with today’s (Monday) task, so I opted to post these now. If I see anything that changes though I will change the chart on those post to match…
Here’s what the Shopkeeper has in store for us this week…
| Day | Task | Earns |
| Monday 10/26 | Squish |
100  |
| Tuesday 10/27 | Have Fun with Cameras x5 | 50  50  |
| Wednesday 10/28 | Tell a Scary Story at the Spooky Campfire x4 | 100 |
| Thursday 10/29 | Squish Zombies x30 | 100  |
| Friday 10/30 | Gather at the Simpson’s House x5 | 100 |
And when you complete them all within the week you’ll earn 20 bonuts (Bonuts= Bonus Donuts)!
Remember all new tasks unlock at 8am your local time….
A Note About the Bunny Challenge (Monday, Day 1):
Monday’s Shopkeeper Challenge is:
However, as many of you are noticing, if you squish Bunnies it doesn’t add to the total. That’s because EA goofed on the writing. It shouldn’t say Squish Bunnies, it should say Squish Skeletons. So if you tap 30 Skeletons it will clear the task for you.
Bottom line: For Day 1, squish SKELETONS not Bunnies.
And there you have it my friends, the challenges to earn you 20 bonuts during week 3!
What are your thoughts on the Daily Challenges? Did you earn your 20 bonuts last week? Think you’ll get there again this week? What do you plan to do with all those saved up Bonuts? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
I’m sure this is on here somewhere. But the evil shop keeper is confused. It isn’t bunnies that need squished it is skeletons. http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Simpsons-Tapped-Out/INFO-Shopkeepers-Challange-W3-D1Bunnies-should-be-Skeletons/m-p/4900302
Maybe it is because I just finished a long day with OT and my eyes are tired but the confused shop keeper did make me laugh.
I also cannot open up my scratch card from the Kwik-E-Mart. Opens and immediately closes.
Switch the facade to regular kwik-e-mart…
After the kids leaving the campfire ALL of my bunnies disappeared, there was nothing showing up, but I received the message that my town was full. After logging out and back I accidently squished some invisible bunnies, after tapping down the road the spawning skeletons started showing up. I’m not sure how many more invisible bunnies I have running around, but at least I can see the new nightmares.
I have had the same problem since I updated to this event. I started squishing the terrors before I do the ones from the fire and I guess it helps I’m not sure really.
I have the same problem.
Solution: first tapp al the running bunny’s before you hit the Campfire.
Your town never Will be full again.
Ugh! I’ve been squishing bunnies all day, and thinking “What the. .. ” thanks for the update. I’ll wait the 4 hours and start the skeletons. or visit my lovely neighbors!
Thanks very much guys for posting this, especially regarding the error with bunnies vs skeletons. I’d been quite confused as to the random tallying up on the counter but now it makes sense that it’s only adding when zapping a skeleton. That saves a case to EA so thanks for the helpful advice! 🙂
I have a different problem, not sure if it has been addressed or not but my campfire says it is spawning bunnies but instead snakes shot out of the fire and it is snakes that seem to be spawning throughout my town, not bunnies. Anyone else having this problem?
I’ve seen a few cases of this and really can’t offer a solution. Best advice is to contact EA
every time i see a skeleton in the game, i think it’s a tie in to Spectre.
Is Day 2 broken too? Mine doesn’t tell me the task?!?
It won’t open up until tomorrow… one unlocks each day for five days and you have seven to complete all of them.
If you squish bunnies in neighboring Simpsons it does register.
Mine kicked off at 7am this morning after our clocks went back this weekend
Is grimes worth the donuts for the xtra cash/xp bonus?
Its 160!

You all save the day again! Who would have thought the issue was a typo? 🙂 THANK YOU!
geez. i almost used up all my neighbor tasks squishing bunnies. now i have to wait another 4 hours to set my campfire (and kids) to skeletons nightmares… *lesigh*
After you’ve unlocked Tenta Corp is there any reason to collect gummies? Nightmares I can see for crafting materials but I’m not seeing any benefit to making gummies. Am I missing something?
nope
geez. and i almost used up my 30 neighbors squishing bunnies only. so disappointed that now i have to wait another 4 hours to change to skeletons. *facepalm*
Funny thing is that I have 2 accounts and my main account had skeletons but I did not change it as am concentrating on the rail yard and thought I would do all tasks on same day so was surprised that it came up task complete. My other account doesn’t have the rail yard so I did the bunny story and they didn’t count typical lol.
I think EA should throw us all some free donuts for their goof! Just saying!! 🙂
Yes, please!
I has an update in the app today and it’s all act 2 stuff … Building skins , shopkeepers challenges , etc … Does anyone has the same problem ? Is there a way to fix this ?
? You’re supposed to have act 2 stuff…
I’ve been swishing bunnies all day…. Won’t they adjust Monday’s task to count….even if you do it on Tuesday ?
You can do Monday’s task Tuesday..no problem. But just so I know, since you said you’ve been squishing Bunnies, you know it’s skeletons, correct?
Boo! I’ve done all my neighbor visits already (clicking on everything BUT skeletons because I’m on bunnies right now and can always use snakes and brains). Wish I’d checked here sooner.
Is there a TPing update coming? I went to my town and there was toilet paper on half of it! I screenshot it but do not know how to share it..
Nope. Just a texture glitch. There’s another task that involves it, Jessica Lovejoy. Sometimes it shows up even if you don’t have her.
Darn it.
I was experiencing this problem, so came to this site for the answer. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
YES i unlocked Hugo.Last year i dint have luck.But i have this year.
My homies stopped showing up early on and now I don’t have any bunnies. help!
Huh?

Me too 🎃 🙂

30 skeletons was simple for me as im at level 38 on my campfire. The glitch was not hard to remedy! All you have to do is press on the task time bar in the shopkeeper menu and it takes ya to the nightmare its asking you to squash.
I was expecting this post, thank you!! I was getting really frustrated with the bunnies!
Thank you!! I’ve been squishing bunnies all day and wondering why it’s not added up right!!
Off subject but i hope we get level 59 soon! Some more land in S/H wouldnt be too bad either. Also, wouldnt it be most killer to get a Homerzilla!!?? On another note, can ya believe how expensive the pirate airship is? Passing on it for sure eventhough it is awesome looking,still too rich for my taste.
Thank you a MILLION times over for sharing this news Alissa!!! I started bunnies last night to clear this am, and was puzzled when I clicked on the shop keepers challenges and it said 0/30 since I had already cleared at least 10 before looking. Thought, ok I have to click on “go to” to make it start?? That didn’t work either, but now I know why. Hope skeletons are next up for my campfire, but if not 30 should be easy enough to get from neighbors! 😉
Man it was driving me nuts trying to figure out why the bunnies I was squishing weren’t counting towards the daily challenge. Finally gave up and decided to set my campfire to skeletons. Then I came here to see if you had a post about it. Well, that worked out; good thing I went with scary skeleton story 🙂 Should have come here a heck of a lot sooner though, BEFORE racking my brain lol. 😛 Thanks for the info Alissa.
