as a freemium player i dont have too many donuts to spend so i was wondering what people recommended?

What I do is just play everyday and (if it's not an event) you'll get a free mystery box on the fifth day and that can give you free doughnut stuff (sometimes doguhnuts) and when buying mystery boxes the first few have good stuff to draw you in then it gets worse as EA are trying to get you to spend money and get drawn in. I would reccomend saving up and buying some buildings that come with characters but check that you can't get them from a mystery box first.

A good premium decoration is the Springfield sign. It is like a jewel to the city. The only negative thing is that for 170 donuts, you only get 4.5% Bonus

Personally, I got Blue Haired Lawyer and Kearney from the Mystery Box alone, so I would go with that.

Same guy from above thread, I also got Lard Lad Donuts and an Itchy and Scratchy billboard. So, look out for those!

I've recieved BHL, SVT, and Lard Lad Donuts on the good side, but I've probably "won" 5-6 carts too, valued at $760. It's hit or miss for sure

It's better to wait for a rebate offer. I'm a freemium player and I currently have over 420 donuts. I expect a big sale offer with rebates soon.

I've read all of these comments and it wasn't until the last one by SonnyWeg about waiting for the rebates that I liked. I'm not a gambler so the Homer Buddha is out. Donuts are just too hard to come by to risk on getting fences, bushes or something equally worthless. Just wait and keep on building up your stash of donuts and spend them on rebate specials. Keep doing the find Maggie mini game every 16 hrs. After three tries you get 3 donuts (48 hours). Those add up quickly in addition to the daily challenge game.

Jep, and I was right. The Hungry Hun with Uter was just released with a rebate and an extra building (Land of Chocolate Chapel).

I'm level 108 and I've got 320 donuts. What should I buy?
