I didn't want to hijack a thread so I started a new one, hoping for some input.


I thought I did really well making 700 k, I guess I could have made more if I didn't keep higher quantities of dairy and sugar products. Maybe if I didn't bother with the boats, as well, but I need vouchers for my last 2 horses.


I didn't buy any b&e, I went for red berry cakes and bacon pies, made a profit of 114 and 100 for each one sold, respectively. It was a bit harder keeping up with the pies. I didn't have much going on this weekend so I just browsed through more farms. I also wheated a lot, upgraded my silo twice and barn once, that probably also hindered my barn space as well.


Didn't bother with strawberries. Compared to max price in the rss, it would only make 3 coins for each one, and wheat was making about 2, I didn't check exactly. I just wanted to keep corn and wheat as my number 2 and number 1.


Another thing I did was more of an anticipation of this event. Last week, I planted some extra cocoa trees so that they would each produce 4 beans, then be revived and harvested again on saturday/Sunday for maximum profits.


Did anybody else have some methods that worked out for them?

We made 980K in the visitor event

If you look at the totals you lose money on corn, so we used soybeans and our #2 crop

We also used Red berry cakes and pies :)

Obviously I didn't take full advantage of the event or don't know how. I only make about 250k. What did you sell to make so much?

That's pretty impressive guys! Great job!

So the strategy was to shop around and buy as many of the targeted items as you could, and then resell to the visitors?

I was glad to see this event come back, so that I could try a new strategy that seemed to work pretty well for me. I had three barn items that I collected and tried to maintain as my top three - b&e, red berry cakes and blue sweaters. Last time, when I only used two, it would never fail that before I had time to build back up my #2, a visitor would come along to buy something that I did not want to sell.

I didn't really have a #2 crop, so I'll be interested in trying soybeans next time.

Were you guys mostly ignoring boats and truck orders during the even to focus on generating more cash? Or just any orders that called for those items (or items that would cause competition, like white sweaters, for example)?

I still did my boat orders, as I am in need of vouchers for pets. I didn't concentrate on truck orders hardly at all, which was a bit of a relief, as that is usually how I play the game. It was nice to get different focus.

i couldnt possibly hoard alot of b&e and berry cakes to outnumber my sugars so i didnt bother with barn stuff. instead i experimented with crops.

I dont like visitors, period. (my achievement is atm 542/2500 so you can imagine) but i been trying to experiment a little with the prices they offer after another player were asking me about forecasting prices on the event.

low price crops sucks, tomato, potato and as mentioned, strawberries does not yield much profit. I instead made bank with the berries, cherries and cacao. when the event comes around again, i am going to have a full field of blackberries and cacao. I do calculate them by stacks x max price instead of individual prices. so for example 20+ blackberries can fetch high 4ks and cacao can fetch over 6k. i think that is pretty decent. if i ever whittle down my sugars, i might try playing around with the barn items, but that is almost nigh impossible.

It's both what you sell and how many you sell. You want somewhat expensive things that you can make big stacks of quickly, and you want to do your best so that they ask for those stacks every time. In the silo it's picked crops that get the highest return (apples, cherries, berries, etc), but the silo isn't your money maker. I sat out this event because I just didn't feel like doing it but last time I hit 1.2 million with bacon and eggs, blackberry muffin, red berry cake, blue sweater, and bacon pie (I probably could have skipped bacon pie, it isn't as easy to find as the others). Bacon and eggs worked particularly well since I was able to stack them twice as fast as other items.

Stockpile as many of those items as you can; since the customers ask for the two items you have the most of, it is ideal to have over 100 of the top two items if possible since the more they buy, the more you make. Then if they clean out your top two items, hopefully you'll have two more close to the top and you'll be ready to go the next time they show up. That's why I like stacking at least four items -- if they clean out two of them, it won't be too hard to have the next two ready to go. You want as many times as possible to have something you want to give them when they ask for something in your barn as obviously the more times you turn them away, the less money you'll make. (With that in mind, it's also important to have one of everything so they don't ask for those things)

It's also true I think that the more barn space you have, the more money you'll make. I had enough room to have stacks of over 100 of each of those things I mentioned all at once. But if you can't stack that high, you won't make as much.

It also just takes quite a bit of work to make that much money. Yeah I made over 1 million last time, but I sat on my butt and played Hay Day almost all of the weekend to do it. By the time the last day rolled around, I got so tired of it that I wound up quitting early. I didn't feel up to doing it this time.

I still play as usual (boat, truck, wheating....), hoarding a bit more chili popcorn as B&E are so hard to find and barn almost full. Also selling bread to them.

I enjoy making and selling bacon & egg though B). High income in no time.

Thanks for the advice cheezfang. I'll need to expand my barn a bit more and try your strategies the next time this event roll around.

Yeah, thanks to everyone contributing to this conversation! It hadn't really come home for me how profitable this event could be.

I did cherries last time and was making some serious coin, but I just happened to be in the right place at the right time for that one. I will prepare better for the next go-round.

I didn't use my silo to make money, I used it just to make wheating a bit more worthwhile. Next time I will probably skip on wheating and rely on higher tier crops to increase revenue.

I also notice that the visitors would come and ask for wheat about five times in a row. Then, I would run out of silo space in about 40 minutes since all they wanted was my barn items that I would run out of quickly. I will also try having 4 items, next time.

Does anybody have any numbers on how much they would make on each item? I know that would see a lot of blue sweaters and blackberry muffins, but how much profit would they yield?

I thought the 300k+ that I made was impressive, but WOW, many of you made 3x that. I'm impressed!!...and a tiny bit jealous haha

Are you factoring in the initial cost of the fruit plants when you calculate how profitable they are?

I just don't seem to profit from our little visitors because I can't get my inventory of axes and saws low enough to prevent them from asking for those, over and over. I know, I know, I should just use them up when the event starts but it freaks me out to have dead trees and bushes on my farm. I've actually decorated my farm with some of those for upcoming Hallowe'en and they creep me out...hey, I guess that's the purpose, ha, ha! I'll try and get over this for next time and do better with the coins. You guys really capitalized, I'm impressed! Thanks for the strategies.

ok this is new to me. Do the visitors normally "ask" for the items you have alot in your barn? cause mine asked for all kinds of things... not just the 'top 3'.

They ask for the top 2 of your silo and barn. They also ask for anything that you have with a quantity of zero.

Something else that this event did...it allowed me to store up items for my Turbo Trucker III run. I quit filling truck orders, focused on my high level items for the visitors and still completed most boat orders for vouchers. In the mean time, I amassed my stock of everything.

I completed my Turbo Trucker III achievement this morning. All of the hype had me nervous, but it went off without a hitch.

did not know that.
so.... when the event comes again, I should stock up on the top two items that I have in my silo and barn and they will continually ask for those two or three items?

Well I didn't think of this at all. I will definitely do this the next time this event rolls around. I need some extra coin!

You also need to have atleast 1 item of everything that you can produce. I missed out on sales because someone else played and sold my 2 Caramel apples on a truck order, so I was asked about 4 times for some while I made another.

Congrats to all who took advantage of the event and made a mountain of coin! I did my fair share of nest egg building too, but after browsing the DD, there's definitely one after effect of the buy in bulk/sell in bulk strategy.

Everyone and their granny are selling B&E, blackberry muffins, sweaters, & berry cakes like there's no tomorrow! :rolleyes:

Those farmers are either dumping their overstock or else wondering why such hot items of the last few days aren't being snapped up like they were. Either way, lets hope to see a return to normality soon.:)

Congratulations:):)

I am beginning to HATE this event!! Or the little people hate me! LOL. I have read and reread this thread and it doesn't work for me. I have stock piled B&E and they aren't asking for it, they are only asking for my silo stuff. Not even the stuff I have alot of or the stuff I have none of. They are only asking for the in between stuff. Maybe the next time this comes around it will be a better money maker for me. I think I have only made around 5k thats it.:(

the event is doing alright for me. I know I made enough coins to repair the lobster pool and the last 2 smelters I needed. I don't buy anything from the DD to give to the visitors. I want to make the most of my profits. I loaded up on b&e and sugarcane and got decent amount of coins from selling. I only got 625 storage space right now for the barn and silo.

Wheat away! I pull in 1000+ coins multiple times away just off their requests for wheat. Additionally, as I harvest, I am getting tons of expansion materials.

When live gives you lemons, errrr....requests for wheat, make wheat!

I will try that. Thanks

I really like this event, but somehow it hasn't really worked for me either. I have made only 100 000-120 000 coins. I should have maybe read these tips better, as I am not that strategic of me. And I play this game for fun, though, now it has been great to get some extra coins, as I am going to be totally ripped off by getting the coffee thing on the next level, need to still fix the net maker and all the other stuff coming later on.

My visitors keep on asking for silo stuff, on which I don't earn that much. I have harvested quite a lot of cocoa, cherries and apples, so I have made the most on selling those. I have tried to pile on with muffins and pies and berry cakes and B&E, but probably not enough, as the visitor very seldomly ask for those items. One factor may also be that my barn space is still very limited. (The BEM, LEM and SEM take a lot of space in there, and obviously need to keep on storing them. Still, it is a bit annoying. There should be a separate storage for them as there is for the fishing hooks...)

For the next time with this event I need to remember these tips. Thank you for sharing!

I had a total of 75 axes and 75 saws. I made the sacrifice of selling them when the little people started coming in droves. I also picked every tree that was ripe with fruit or berries. Cut them down and sold the rest. It paid off with the fruit and berries that were sold to the little people. I have now purchased 2 machines and have a nice coin roll to put towards the next machine when its unlocked.

I used to not like this event, however I see why some consider this the best one. I just have to work on my barn storage in time for the next go around.

Trying to push another round of B&E, berry cake and blackberry muffins for just a bit longer before heading for bed. Cranking out wheat and corn too to find some materials. Had so much fun building up my gold stack again. It's not fun being broke. I've made around 1 million, would've make more if I wasn't busy doing truck orders to level up on my 2nd farm (trying to reach level 54 to unlock the sauce machine, 4 levels done and 4 more to go).

I did what you did too because the visitors were asking for the saws n axes which I didn't want to sell. I'll live with the dead trees and bushes if I'm out

If you have expanded to land to your hearts desire, then you may not have to live with the dead trees and bushes for long. Look in the trade tread where many people are looking for deeds and will trade up to 5 saws and or axes per deed. Thats my plan to restock on axes and saws once this event is over. :cool:


Does anyone know how often this "Little People" event come around?

Did pretty well for myself during this event. Sold a ton of B&E and more than doubled my coinage.

Eggs, somone please help.

Ive heared some people say there is and others say theres not, is their profit in buying eggs at full price and selling to customers?

I don't think there is much profit to eggs, but I don't have the numbers

Do you know what the bots are paying for eggs? One egg max is 18 coins

Every 6 weeks I think -- maybe less frequently with the new events. Last bot event was in October?

They normally pay 11 coins for an egg which means they're now paying 22 coins. 4 coins profit per egg or moremif u find cheap eggs :)

Good luck! Still over 3 hrs left.

This is what I do and I make a lot of coin........
Sell all the normal produce in your barn, BUT you must keep exactly one and only one of everything.
The LP do not ask for expansion materials so you may keep as much of that as you want.
Be sure to minimise the amount of saws and axes below the level of B&E and eggs at all times.

Fill up the BBQ with B&E, maximise the eggs production and bacon from the pigs.
Wheat like crazy and fill 1/5 fields with soyabean, 4/5 with wheat.
Sell off all other crops, just keep ONE or a few depends upon your silo size....

They will ask for four things.......
B&E sells to the LP for 2930 coin per 10x
Eggs sell at 220 per 10x.
Wheat and soya sell to LP at a higher price than RSS.
Buy all available B&E and eggs in DD, you make 40 coin per 10x eggs and 830 coins per 10x B&E. assuming you buy at max price in DD. But often times you can buy below max. price. and of course if you make them yourself you make 2930 coin per 10x B&E and 220 per 10x eggs.

It sucked this time for me because I didn't know they would ask for items that you have 0 of. So I sold all my stuff except for items that I wanted to do the event with, and sure enough, they were asking for all kinds of items that I didn't have. I think I only made a couple grand off of wheat. Bummer.

:( Next time keep 1 of everything you can produce -- buy it if you have to. You will make all that coin outlay back in selling them what you WANT to sell them.

This is our FAVE event. With dedication and discipline, you can make $1M coin easily once you get above level 40 or so. We made 750K the first time we did this, 980K the second, and 1.1M this time.

Do not be afraid to lay out a big chunk of coin stocking up. Even if you buy at max, you will eventually make a TON of coin. We bought almost all of what we sold the bots, and made a killing. The vast majority of what we bought, we paid max for.

It's all about the numbers -- and the shopping. Pick 5 things you are going to stock and feed bots, then just keep replenishing. Also don't be afraid to change items in the middle of the event -- once one or 2 items become scarce, dump them and buy what seems more plentiful. We dumped white sweaters and went with cornbread on day 2 because white sweaters became hard to buy. Cornbread, on the other hand, seemed to be in every shop.

Fast replenishment of stock was more of a concern for us this round because we had to work around 150 axes and 165 shovels in the barn that we were not willing to part with. I needed to keep 5 produced goods at higher amounts than that to keep bots from asking for the tools.

In between, wheat wheat wheat -- and expand if you can (or sell the items for max if you don't want to store them or use them). We generated enough expansion items to expand my huge silo once, hubby's teeny silo 4 times, his baby barn 2x, and open 6 plots of land on his level 24 farm.

LOVE THE BOT EvENT!!!

Understand it all now and can't wait for next time :)

Yeah, this event is great for wheating time.

Just out of curiosity, why are you hanging on to so many shovels and axes?

Because hubby baby farm used the free Tom trial for them. He doesn't have room to store them, so they are in MY barn :) :) He has a LOT of land clearing to do, in time :)

CL -- this is as close as we want to come for n ow to your famous Scorched Earth challenge -- ha ha

This was a great thread! I really appreciate everyone's input! The last visitor event saw me wheating like crazy....after reading all of your posts this time, i tried a different strategy and I did really well selling B&e's, berries, cherries and apples. The only issue I have now is that a lot of my bushes and trees are dead so I'm on the lookout for loads of axes and sawsall in time, I guess!

I personally throw all my mining equipment in the mine instead of wasting precious barn space. This is what I normally do.. Basically when my barn is running out of space, I wait until the animals are ready to be harvested, mainly the chickens since they are ready in just 20 mins. Make sure the barn in completely full, throw in 1 shovel, harvest an egg so barn is completely full again and repete. By doing this, you can throw in as many shovels you want without having to pick up the same amount of ore. Then I just pick up ore as I need it.

Thank you for explaning! I got it now. The event is over now, but I think I will save your post, and maybe the whole thread on my device for the next round. :D

Make sure the barn in completely full, throw in 1 shovel, harvest an egg so barn is completely full again and repete. By doing this, you can throw in as many shovels you want without having to pick up the same amount of ore. Then I just pick up ore as I need it.

That is an AWESOME tip -- we reduced the shovel hoard to 100 by stacking ores outside the mine, but as you say, to do that you must pick up an ore. We kept our smelters full at all times and fewer than 10 ores in barn, which limited the number of shovels we could use up. NEXT TIME we will use your egg tip :) THANK YOU
