Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Looks like Gil’s back in Springfield. He returned to Springfield this morning, naturally with another ‘deal” for us. What’s the latest gimmick he’s peddling? Well this time around he’s finally bringing a Springfield mom we’ve been asking for YEARS for…Sarah Wiggum!
So let’s break down the details of this latest offer and determine if you should spend your donuts to reunite the Wiggum family….
So when you first get into Springfield you’ll see Gil waving his arms around…just begging you to tap on him…
If you tap on him you’ll see…
Gil: Ol’ Gil’s luck is turning around. Larry Kidkill is reopening the zoo. I’ll betcha baboons to beluga whales I can sell him the Aquarium. You can’t have a zoo without Ol’ Gil or fish gills!
At which point you’ll see his latest gimmick…
If you refuse…
Gil: Not taking the bait? I’m the one on the hook, line, and sinker this time. Ol’ Gil’s going to be sleeping with the fishes for real.
If you accept…
Gil: I may have been washed up, but my aquarium critters don’t have to be! We’re all having sushi tonight!
Now real quick because…if you refuse the offer will go back in the store. It will be there…
This Deal Ends August 23rd
And now for the part, you’ve all been waiting for…the Should I Buy…

Pros
-Comes with a questline
-Amusing outdoor tasks
-Chief Wiggum has a permanent 4hr task there (Feed the Fish)

-The building is animated when in use
Cons
-Insanely priced for a character/building combo. But I think we all knew that was going to happen…
-Not voiced
Final Thought
Premium or Freemium:
I know she’s insanely priced, but it’s Sarah Wiggum. You should buy her. You can take your chances and see if she comes back at a discount down the road, but why wait? We’ve waited 6 years for her to join the game, she’s finally here…just pick her up.
Of course, in the end, it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would or wouldn’t do…and as a premium player, I’ve got her. Price is steep, but it’s Sarah Wiggum. Had to get her. But whatever you decide, just make sure you make your final decision before it leaves our games for good (or for now).
Sarah Wiggum’s Permanent Tasks:
| Task | Length | Earns | Location |
| Visit Jake’s Unisex Hair Palace | 1hr | $105, 26xp* | Jake’s |
| Ignore Chief Wiggum | 4hrs | $260, 70xp | Brown House |
| Cut Ralph’s Hair | 8hrs | $695, 175xp* | Outside/Visual |
| Drink Boxed Wine | 12hrs | $600, 150xp* | Outside/Visual |
| Drink at Moe’s | 24hrs | $1000, 225xp | Moe’s |
During the event her 1, 8 and 12 hour tasks will pay out event currency. After the event they’ll revert back to in-game cash.
(8hr task payout is what I expect it to be, however, I cannot fully verify because until the event is over it pays event currency)
And because this is the complete details on the Gil Deal, here’s the Turbo Tappin’ Version of her questline…

What are your thoughts on Sarah Wiggum and the Aquarium? Will you be spending the donuts to bring it to your Springfield? Did you already? Why or why not? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
And finally, because I know a lot of you like to know these things…
Now of course 30 donuts, what a bargain !!!
I got her on the 30 donut deal, yay! She’s currently cutting Ralph’s hair 😂
If you get the family fun 5 questline Chief Wiggum and Sarah Wiggum’s tasks payout 105 animal tracks for a four hour task. If you just don’t do Ralphs task I think you can do those two tasks over and over earning more than if you send them to the zoo….
I got her, but the building is really meh. Now she’ helping with the event, permanent tasks are for later. A shame you can’t store the aquarium seperately
At 300 donuts and 95% of Gil’s deals returning at a discount or mystery box, I will save my donuts. About 100 donuts over priced.
It’s Sarah Wiggum…………….. who? Ok, I know it’s Ralph’s mum, but I don’t remember her being in the show at all. I don’t know why she’d be a “must buy” as such a forgettable character. Easy pass for me.

Cool, thanks 🙂 I still think she’s a very minor character and not worth 300 doughnuts. It’s not even really about the high price, or my doughnuts (I have 1800+) – I just don’t want her or the Aquarium (yet another stadium, yawn). I decided to buy Allison, Joan, and Atlantis instead.
Already commented on Sarah 2 days ago on the open thread (bought her, btw). The only thing I don’t like (beside being overpriced obviously) are the joint task requiring another character since Sarah needs Ralph for her 8 hr tasks. Both the Sexy Pirate AND the Disapproving Squirrel require Marge for their 8 hr tasks! The Parson needs Rev Lovejoy for his 8 hr task (he has TWO 4 hr tasks!).
On a side note, poor Gummy Joe still doesn’t have a 24 hr task! This throws me off whenever I send all my non-event characters on a 24 hr task. Every character in the game each should have an 1 hr, 4 hr, 8 hr, 12 hr, and 24 hr task that DOESN’T require another character.
Gravedigger Billy joins my Gummie Joe on their 24-hour shifts. He requires Willie.
Agreed about Gummy Joe needing a 24-hour task (that doesn’t involve using his tooth for something!). He also needs more alternate tasks–like “try to win at blackjack” for four hours and “Dance the Senor Burns” (premium 8-hour task in the Chez Guevara). The only tasks I put him in are one-hour or 12-hour (because I hate that the others involve abusing his only tooth).
I bought her because I have been waiting her forever and she completes a family. I think if you don’t buy her you might be shooting yourself in the foot. When(if) they release human Maude don’t you think she’s going to be up in the 275-300 range? How many characters did they only release once and never bring back that I see people pining over time and time again.
Is Human Maude anticipated?
A buy for me for one reason only: she has a 12 hour visual task. If she was the standard 4/8 hour visual task set we’ve seen all year, I’d pass.
^This!
I am continually annoyed by the 300 donut price tag that seems to be the new standard, but I couldn’t resist this one.
