Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Nothing like the holidays to bring a little crazy to our pocket-sized towns! As the latest mini-event in TSTO hit our towns recently…this time to celebrate Thanksgiving. Or more specifically Black Friday! At least this one is seasonally appropriate…and should bring us nicely into Christmas! (Almost Tinsel Time! 🎄🎄🎄 )
Remember, this event is designed to follow a series of tasks via the questline to unlock prizes. For each of the parts of the All American Auction questline, you’ll have to earn 
via various character tasks in order to unlock the prize for that part.
So let’s take a look at prizes 1-4, the Swap Meet, Swap Meet Stage, B Sharps Animation,, and the Golden Token…

Thoughts the Swap Meet, Swap Meet Stage, B Sharps Task, or Golden Token? How are you doing with the prize track? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
Thanks for the info. However I can’t find out where in the store to swap my golden token for donuts, can someone be more specific?
I have the B Sharps but I can’t find the animation task, are all the characters needed? I don’t have Barney .
The animation is in the task lists for Apu, Barney, Homer and Skinner which is called “Be Sharps Reunion” that is a 4 hour task for each of the Be Sharps. You have to send them on the tasks individually rather than send one then the rest follow. I don’t think you need Barney just for the tasks since they’re individual tasks for the 4 characters.
I plan on putting the Springfield Swap Meet with the Swap Meet Stage and Taste of Springfield from last year since they both are similar buildings. I found some permanent tasks at the Swap Meet for 5 characters: Alice Glick, CBG, Herman, Marge and Moe who all have the same task “Auction Off Wares”. It is a nice looking building that can have roads going through the middle though I wish there was an animation with it from the tasks.
I agree with you on the musings post about there being an easier way to send the B Sharps on their task at the Swap Meet Stage rather than sending them individually. The B Sharps task is great if you don’t have the Open Air Stage since it cost donuts.
If I had the extra token last year then I would’ve been delighted since I would’ve had 5 items in the gold box but this year I didn’t have the box so the token can only be exchanged for a dozen donuts which is ok if there’s a new mystery box at Christmas.
Hey Alissa….just for you I sent Santa Homer on his 24 hr sleigh ride task. Even though it looks like summer in Springfield…..🎅🎄🌷🌞🏊❓
lol 🎄🎅🤶🛷
Our halls are decked at home! Well except we didn’t put the ornaments on the trees yet, and the outside still has to get done. Need to leave something to do on Black Friday lol
See….i still have fall inside (only til Fri, then its showtime!)but 95% done outside only cuz we’ve had some nice weather and im sick of doing it in 20° weather….ALONE. My daughter said i let her down by doing it so early. Lol. She’s like “u still have a scarecrow wreath up on the door!” Hey im getting old and the cold feels a lot colder nowadays!
LOL very smart on your end!
Springfield Swap Meet – I hope EA keeps offering up the equivalent to a Building that lets Tappers put a road down the middle of it (my favourite feature introduced last year) 👍🏻
Swap Meet Stage / B’Sharps Character Animations – ♥️ it, I just wish there was a music queue when Tapped (c’mon EA you can do it with a Patch File) 😉
Gold Token – aka 12 🍩’s and keep that Accelerator going 😉
I finished the Mini-Event on Monday morning (with the weekend off from Tapping) and ready for 🦃 Day.
Like the B sharps and just got the last prize now to put up my tree lol🎄🎄🎄
Is there a way to clear the stupid ‘use a gold token’ job for those of us who already have everything in the box.
Cause I’ve “spend” my first two tokens on donuts (the only thing still in the box) and the job doesn’t clear.
Not until the event is over
