Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
The kids of Springfield are mad as hell and they’re not going to take it anymore! Time for a Battle Royale of epic proportions…kids vs adults. The soul of Springfield is on the line! So grab those sprinkles because the store is stocked with returning battle inspired items to fill your Springfield with!
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 the Returning Returning St. Patrick’s Flag, Stack of Beer, Taste of Duff Truck, Stoner’s Pot Palace or Pride of Ulster Banner & Leprechaun 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…

Cost: 10 Donuts, 5 Donut Rebate, NET 5 Donuts
Earns: 0.25% Bonus on Cash and XP
Previous Post: Should I Buy
What Does It Do: Just a sign…not a cop
My Opinion On It Now:It’s a flag. It’s 10 donuts. If you like it and really want it for your Springfield, buy it.
Item: Stack of Beer
Cost: 35 Donuts, 15 Donut Rebate, NET 20 donuts
Earns: .75% bonus on cash and XP

My Opinion On It Now:Pass. No bonus % and minor animation, not worth the 45 donuts.
Item: Stoner’s Pot Palace
Cost: 60 Donuts
Earns: $500, 45xp/24hrs
Previous Post: Should I Buy

Previous Post: Should I Buy
What Does It Do: Leprechaun runs away and spits out cash when tapped, like the other Leprechauns

What are your thoughts on the returning items? Will you be spending donuts to bring any of these throwbacks to your Springfield? Why or why not? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
Stoners Pot Palace / Pride of Ulster Banner & Northern Irish Leprechaun
The ONLY 2 Items I don’t have …. Leprechauns are funny, but I hate NPC’s (I’ve stored all of mine), it’s going to be a last minute decision if I want the Building vs another go at the St. Patrick’s Mystery Box (decisions, decisions) …. sure feels like EA is offering up former Freemiums for Sprinkles (well, some of them) 🤔
Bought the Northern Leprechaun, then tried the mystery box and got the Shamrock Cafe (which is exactly what I wanted). Super happy with this. I am now the proud owner of ALL the leprechauns!! Sweet! 🍀🍀🍀🍀
I want the leprechaun, but it’s my third favorite. I really like them all but somehow have none, even though I’ve been playing for years. I have enough doughnuts for a few items but not all of them, and want to roll the dice on the mystery box to get the other two leprechauns that I like more, but really don’t care for the Duff items. Do I risk getting Duff stuff or settle for the orangey and buy Florence of Arabia in the vault? ERGH!! Stupid decisions/first world problems!!
Florence of Arabia is awesome, I got her from the vault a long time ago, one of my first vault purchases.
Bought two of the flags to decorate the Irish Pub, but I already own everything else.
Hi, Alissa!
If I see correctly, the NET for the flag is only 5 Donuts (instead of 10) for 0.25% bonus. That’s not such a bad deal, is it?
Thanks so much, especially for your SIB posts. It’s so much work you are doing and it is very well appreciated! Greetings from Germany! =)
It’s still a flag….
I was wondering the exact same thing. I’ll be waiting on pins and needles to read what you have to say about it tomorrow. (OK, maybe not actual pins and needles.)
um… your math is wrong for the stack of beer. 35-15 is 20, not 10. it costs 20 for the .75 % bonus. is it still worth it?
No.
good thing i have no donuts anyway, and couldnt buy it if i wanted to =)
(sad on the inside)
Alissa, I think you made a mistake with the Stack of Beer. The net cost is 20 donuts, not 10—-which makes the .75% not worth it. (35-15rebate = 20)
“10 donuts for .75%, good buy for bonus % value”
But when the NET is actually 20 donuts not 10 — not as good.
20 for stack of beer :3
Did you do a SIB ever on the Green house (Nature Bundle) the building that is by itself if you already have Otto, but if you don’t have Otto it comes with him?… I already have Otto, I am interested in the building itself, it says it’s bundled with other premium items… I was wondering if you did a SIB on it because I don’t see it anywhere, maybe I overlooked it.. but I wanted to see what you or others had to say about it…thanks!!!
I did one but another will be going up tomorrow
