Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Love is in the air friends! Yes, Valentine’s Day is back in our pocket-sized towns! And this time around things are going to be done, Springfieldian Style! Of course, an all-new event gives EA an excuse to stock our stores with returning premium content in our stores, just tempting us to drop those pink sprinkles!
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 Valentine’s Day Decorations 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…

What are your thoughts on the returning content? Any items you’ve picked up? Passed on? Placement in Springfield? Sound off below, you know we love hearing from you!
Cooling Towers
Cozy Hammock
I spent sprinkles on both and concur … the rest are meh (did anyone truly ♥️ 2014’s wheel of doom?)
I think all the stuff with no % should’ve been available with igc….glad to know about the bundle. Wasn’t sure if anything in there had a bonus %. I couldn’t really see what all was included. I did get the cozy hammock & put it next to Snugglers Cove.
I wish they brought back the balloons for cash instead of donuts, or I would have picked up a bunch.
Doesn’t the birdbath come with sound? I love the chirping birds and want more!
Yes it does! I love the ambient chirping noises, makes my town come alive. I’ve placed quite a few of them where I have parks, farms, and forest bits.
I have the teddy bear from previous years and never used it. I don’t know where to put it. I really don’t find any of this things necessary.
Sir loves a lot is free with the pin pals grabber… though it took a lot of tries for me to ‘win’ him
Claw Machine!, I’ve won half a dozen of them, somehow I’m always surprised when I win another 😀 They’re all lurking in my xmas area.
I choo choo choose you train, bought a bunch and stashed em behind stuff just to bump my bonus %

Thanks Alissa! I bought some pieces of everything (except the teddy bear), in case I need them sometime in the future to complete a Valentine area 🙂
I so should have waited for this. I was surprised when I got the bundle of love and my bonus didn’t increase at all. It’s okay, though. I’ve been in a pink mood ever since I got the donut factory.
Sir Loves A Lot? They didn’t have Lord Huggington?
They’re the same basic bear…
