Turnips are 74 bells, a 4 percent drop.

Should continue to trend lower with a forecast in the high 50's by mid-week and I expect a sharp increase by Thursday.

Future update QoL suggestions:

- Timestamps on messages in the Chat Log app
- Ability to grab and move items in your on-hand inventory (how is this missing???)
- Ability to craft using items from your in-house storage
- Have the current camera setting persist entering/exiting buildings

Oh! One more suggestion: ability to view the passports of your friends list! This was a fun feature in New Leaf, and you could even check what badges your friends had achieved. Seems like there's no corresponding way to see a friend's "profile" in New Horizons.

Have to compliment the addition of the shop drop box. It's genius. I haven't had time to play since this morning when all I did was talk to nook, place my bridge, and turn in my items to Blathers. I'm working tonight, so by the time I get home the shop should be closed. Because I've been busy I haven't even had the opportunity to do my daily pruning routine - shaking trees, digging holes, hitting rocks. But because of the drop box I can do my errands and put what I want to sell in the drop box. One complaint I've always had about AC is that if you miss a shop closing and still want to sell you either have to travel to a friend's town or wait till morning to do something as simple selling which results in an annoying over filled inventory which makes play tedious. This is such a life saving option. A+ solution.

13k Miles and nothing to spend them on :P

The ABD maxes out at 5 each for Nook Shopping and redeeming Nook Miles for items per day :maf

I'll probably order the last pieces of the Nook Inc collection tomorrow tho.

After that it seems like for now I just have fence recipes to look forward to (in addition to Mystery Tour tickets), but I have to imagine that'll change. I already know you can upgrade your inventory one more time (four rows) at some point, and that'll definitely cost a lot of Miles I imagine. After that... maybe bridges and ramps use Miles? Can't remember from the footage I've seen...

Yeah for some reason I couldn't send you one even when I was there. :thinking Your account is the Resident Rep right? And no child safety settings turned on? :thinking

You can hit rocks with shovels (or axes) and iron is one of the more uncommon resources to pop out, but it's also used in a lot of key crafting recipes so it's kinda the most important resource (I think, so far, maybe.)

Yeah it's great! And it's something I agree the series could have used before. Unfortunately the 20% tax and late delivery of bells (next morning) decrease its usefulness to me... That said, I do like that, it's good game design to have a trade off such as that, forcing players to choose between waiting and being hasty.

(With that said, New Leaf had a similar semi-workaround with ReTail and the Night Owl Ordinance, I think it would stay open until 2am and also buy your things at a discount from what Nook's store would. The drop box is way better though.)

Oh man, when donating things at the museum, only the things that you haven't donated are available to select. No more wasting time with Blathers telling you that you've already donated!!!

This was actually in New Leaf too. :P

Them cutting ramps whenever it was convenient makes a bit more sense now... ramps must have been a bitch to generate. Now they just let the player decide, and give them BotW-like tools for traversing the entire environment. A lot of game design systems are synergizing really well in this game.

I'm seeing more time travelers than usual with this game. I don't recall nearly as many time travelers in NL. But maybe I wasn't exposed to the truly hardcore AC community. Over here we are all about chill gaming. I know some people that are literally a week ahead in game however.
