    Wish we could gift Bitizens like we do frogs in PF. I could really use a skill level 9 Private Eye.

    One of my strategies

    I spend a lot of towerbux in upgrading a store, used for the big spender. My best store is the Karaoke Club upgraded to Level 657. The selling values for slot 3 are now 61200.

    This means, when the big spender comes (and i have enough bux to hurry (which takes 68!)), I get 6 * 61200 Coins, which is 367200.

    If I don't have enough bux for the Big Spender, I have another Store, Doctors Office, upgraded to Level 89. It costs me only 24 Bux and gives 6 * 18000 = 108000 Coins.

    My plan is to go further up and have one shop with 100 bux to refill, one with 50 and one with 25. If I can't buy the cheapest refill, well then I choose any good other shop by luck.

    BTW. Of course in Big Spender Stores, Slot 1 and Slot 2 produce nothing, to always hit the Big Bonus.
    When I upgrade these stores, I always spend 36 Bux, which makes 12 upgrades, which accounts for an hour. After that I know, that refilling the store is now one bux more expensive.

    Just imagine: Getting more than half a million Coins with a big spender :)

    Of course the brown vip, which takes 3 hours away from restocking is only used for big spender stores.

    Lol.. this means u spent 1968 bux (3 x 656) upgrading the store. I hope u've been able to get enough big spender VIPs in there to justify that cost!!

    Wow nice! That means I haven't been saving for just the heck of it!

    Have about 16 million coins just waiting for a new floor!

    Someone gave us a rather novel idea today about adding an element to the game similar to the weekly sets in Pocket Frogs.

    They would be called something like "missions" and they would be accessed from the main menu (with new ones popping up every week). Each mission would require you to collect (at time of stocking) a certain number of two products from certain floors:

    To enable you to do missions you don't yet have the required floors for (or just to help friends out) I thought it would also be cool to be able to gift product stock to other players:

    What do you guys think?

    @eeen - finally a way to include friends? I am surely in!

    Maybe it will be a way to encourage some of them to play again too!

    I noticed that 1,500 tea and 2,800 sugar cookies only nets 10 tower bux. I'm assuming that means we'll still net the profit from the stock as well? Because 10 bux for that much stock is a rip off :p

    By the way, I'd love if you guys could increase the chances of getting a costumed character in the elevator. I get one like 1 in every 25 lifts. Then again, I guess it's fine, because I'm pretty near done with my tower and will need to start spending my tower bux on other things.

    On that note, hopefully you guys come up with another nifty idea in regards to spending coins. I have about 10mil right now and I'm pretty sure it'll keep on piling up.

    Pretty sure that 8 more floors are coming. Last couple pages mentioned it and they are already listed on the Tiny Tower Wiki.

    Any idea as to when the update will be released?
    I did not updata to 1.4. because at 255 Bitizens in9 level dream jobs in 85 stores, I decided to play until I had 37million coins and then update and construct all 8 floors at the same time, for a little change of pace. I won't be able to do this if the new update is imminent and so will take my current 30m and see how far it will take me.....

    After about 13 VIPS you get more money out of that, instead of buying coins for 50 bux.

    But at that time I didn't know the game ends, once you have every floor. I thought you could buy again each store, once you have one of each. I would not have done it, if I knew.
