    So true. I actually just missed the second one for today. There was 2 min left on the countdown till it was purchasable and in the meantime, Omar left. So disappointing because it was practically within reach.

    if i were u, i would skip the current offer(at that time)..i think it would cost less than 500 gold..

    I beg to differ with you. I've always thought the amount of dollars for free is based on the player's level. And the fact that my doghouse is at level 5 and I still get 100,000 tells me I'm closer to the truth than you ;-)

    I can't argue against that. :)

    Woah woah woah, hold the phone-- does this mean Omar can offer things for absolutely free sometimes? Does that only apply to Farm Dollar packages, or can anything receive a 100% discount?

    Lucky streak indeed!

    Yes, this is a realy lucky streak. These are the only two offers that do not require from you to spend gold.

    And no, only a dollar package (100.000 or less) recieve a 100%.

    I was so going to, but when I went to actually do it, the button had grayed out. I think my computer time is maybe 2 min later than the time the game uses. At least, I know it now for next time.

    Just an additional note. The Island/Viking Omar will offer 1,000 Shells/runes, or 100 Shells/Runes for Free... as well as some amount of Island/Snow dollars, I think 100,000+ the exchange rate.

    I am looking at upgrading my mine, and I was wondering what is a Prime Day? I cannot find any references to it other than on this Thread

    Prime day spending is when whatever you spend in gold you get rewarded for spending that gold I have 1 now spend up to 45.000 gold get an decor lowest amount 1500 get 10 premiun fertiliser Look out for blue shopping bag

    That is prime spending.

    Prime day is an offer that lasts for one day. Of you buy certain amount of gold on prime day, you will get additional price. The price differs from one prime day to another. One of prime day offers for example gives you 25 gold mine licences if you buy gold.

    I agree with aaabbb1, but has anyone seen a prime day since we started to get Hot Deals?
    I can`t remember the last time I saw a Prime day.

    I kind of ignore the Prime Days and other offers but it seems like there were some in mid-December, if I recall. I don't invest in gold, so I haven't really noticed their frequency, but maybe once a month?
    Another suggestion, the Shopping Bag ("Prime Spending") maybe shows once a month, too, so if you're going to use gold (for building or upgrading or even starting the mine itself), it's beneficial to wait for it to show up. You get the added benefits/gifts for spending gold which can be very helpful.
    I do wish they offered single mining licenses more frequently. Once I left the game on all day when Omar was in town checked it every 20 minutes (for what was currently being offered and what was coming up), but I didn't catch a single license for sale (I did get some free money however!). I thought they weren't offering those anymore, so I used my gold for other things. I've seen the "multi-pack" for sale with Casino chips and one license, but it seems they pop up just after I've made a big purchase....

    No, I did not see prime day for a while, Run. You are right. It seams that a hot deal is a prime day in another outfit.

    How do you get a gold mining license.

    "How can I get a gold mining licence? As for now, the gold mining licence can be bought in several ways. The first is when you buy gold during a prime day that offers licences, the second is when you buy a mystery box. This option is thought to have such a small chance to actually get a mining licence, that we doubt it is worth a try. The third way is to be very lucky in the jackpot spin (8 tokens needed to get into that) when Monty Goldwin is on your farm with his Wheel of Fortune and the last way is to buy one from Omar. Omar offers licences for 1500 gold, that means, if you use 2000 gold to start the mine, that you will have a profit of 500 gold after it is done. There is also one way to get the mining licence for free, namely by finishing the mine quest in your left hand bar. After upgrading the mine (which doesn’t cost much and doesn’t take long) you will get 1 free gold mining licence."

    There are several ways. Here are some of them:

    - you can get them if you buy gold on a certan day (Hot Deal with gold mining licences)
    - you can win it in mystery box or wheel of fortune (they are very rare!!!)
    - you can buy it from Omar. Omar offers a single gold mining licence for 1500 gold (meaning you have a 500 gold profit) or in a package with tokes (meaning you get tokens for less gold)
    - you can get it as a reward for finishing certain tasks (after upgrading the mine for example and I think that there is one horse task that gives you a mining licence as well).


    EDIT: Writing at the same time as Larino

    You can get them, sometimes, from Omar for 1500 gold.
    There's one as a prize if you finish in the platinum or diamond league of the horse championship.
    You can occasionally get on on a spin in the WoF.
    You can buy them when you buy gold (sometimes the hot deal has GML)
    The task (early on in the game) to upgrade the gold mine gives you a certificate as a reward.

    That's all I can think of at the moment.

    In addition:

    It is certainly worthwhile to watch Omar closely all the time as every 10 minutes his deal changes, and you would not want to miss the goldmine ticket (nor his 100% free offer)! My alarm clock rings every 18 minutes therefore! ^^

    I just used my gold mining license and was wondering if I am able to buy another. Would it cost real money, BF cash or BF gold?

    Thanks in advance!

    Try doing a search of forum for "licence" it throws up lots of info.

    But basically

    1. No, he sells one for 1500 gold. But the mining licence gives 2000 gold. So it is 500 gold earn.

    2. The offers are random. So, you may not get a gold mining licence offer at all or if you are lucky you may see that ofer more than once

    @Mamush (IN1)  The clay, charcoal, sand, and rocks are by-products from growing edge plants. You can find more info here courtesy of CrazyBigfarm55.......... http://crazybigfarm.tk/farm/village/edge_plants.htm
  • JVD (US1)JVD (US1) US1 Posts: 2,784
    @Mamush (IN1) minor correction to what @farmerjohn 22 (US1) said... the charcoal is produced in the Mineral & Metals factory in the village, it is not an edge plant by-product. :)

    defintely check out the CrazyBigFarm link he gave you!!!

    @piggyoink15 (US1) I have moved your question to this thread, because you will find lots of suggestions in the earlier posts here.

    The ones that Uncle John listed are:
    • Omar the trader - Though you do need to have 3500 gold to make 4000, so you get 500 free from that deal.
    • George's Hardwork event & the Fishing one, both have them as activity rewards.
    • Monty's wheel of fortune
    • Gold Mystery boxes

    They are also rewards for Platinum & Diamond leagues in the horse seasons.
  • If the workers can carry animals, food products and paper money.  Why cant they carry the shinny gold coins..like maybe 2 gold coins to help out those who DON'T buy gold.  And also help out the kids who play here who are NOT allow to purchase gold because they are too young to own a Credit Card.  Leveling up is fast if active player, but some are casual players.  I am sure the workers got a stash of gold coins under their mattress holding them for a rainy day to use..
