Should I Spend Donuts on the 2018 Returning Valentine’s Day Items?

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Love is in the air in Springfield!  Yes, Valentine’s Day has made it’s annual return to our stores.  We’ve got a new item and a themed Mystery Box, but what most of you are after are the loads of Valentine’s Day goodies to spend Sprinkles directly on.

As we all know, that limited-time label can tempt us to grab everything in sight because it’ll be gone soon.  But don’t sweat it!  That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth those donuts and what you might want to hold off on.

Wondering if you should add any of the Valentine’s Day items to your Springfield?  Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding these throwbacks to your town…

    No update as of yet for valentines day. Have hard closed out of my game, restarted my device several times, and even uninstall Ed and reinstalled the game. Still nothing. Really annoying.

  2. Does Cletus’ farm grow roses again today?

  3. I bought the Tunnel of Love simply because it’s an important item from TSTO past, and I’ve always wanted it.

  4. I got the Choo Choo choose you train 😊
    Little bit of Ralph love in my town. ♥

  5. Josephine Kick@$$

    Awwww, even if EA is giving no love to KL, I love my Tunnel Of Love & would get it again 💘

  6. Is the ladies of Springfield coming back for Valentine’s Day a reoccuring thing in tsto or is it fairly new?

  7. I remember back when we got Krustyland prizes during events. Give us a full-on Krustyland event, EA. Take us out of our Springfields for two or three weeks. That would really shake things up and blow our minds.

    • That is a brilliant idea! Can’t remember the last time I went to Krustyland apart from being forced to in a daily challenge!

    • I go twice daily for a shot at 5 donuts but we NEED a full-on KL event (he says ducking the hurled shoes)!

      • I didn’t throw a shoe at you. I wouldn’t dream of it. A Krustyland based event would be very welcome. The last time we had to visit KL was with Krusty and Princess Penelope, a long, long time ago.

  8. Since the balloons had a rebate of 4 donuts, I figured why not and picked up a bundle for 1 donut. I also grabbed a hammock for the % bonus.

  9. thought the balloons had a 4 donut rebate

  10. Aha, liked your opinion on the Bundle of Love. Valentines 2014 has bad memories for me too; this was when I got so frustrated with that damn ‘wheel’ I hit my iPad and cracked the screen with my ring 😖. Not much inspiring me with these returning items, I think I will give them a miss.
