Favourite way to making bells.

[Quagsire.]

There are a number of cool ways to get money in animal crossing, I personally like catching sharks/beetles at the island at night. :3

I used to get my bells from the island, now I do tbt for bells and I'm rolling in bells

I used to spend hours on the island at night time when I first got the game, then I started trading DLC & JP exclusive items I got from Streetpass homes (I Streepassed a ton of Japanese players at Disneyland) I traded them on here and made millions that way

I think that trading TBT is probably the easiest way. I'm pretty sure if you paid 1000 TBT you could get 100 Million in almost a snap. That and trading slaves villagers is pretty good.

trading TBT or serving with Brewster!

I tend to go to the island every evening several times. Or, if I can't get on in the evening(rarely) I'll tt during the day to get to after 7 so I can catch the more expensive stuff. Usually around 3 or 4 trips if I have the time.
Only earns about a million a day which I know is nothing compared to what some people get for turnip prices and that. But I've never had any luck with turnips and I always miss out on going to somebody else's village to sell. It's a shame because I think that could be a new favourite thing for me to do.

My main goldmine was the tropical island and my favourite times were between 7:20pm to 8:30pm; I did two rounds and made about a million. I later discovered this forum and started trading in tbt for igbs and now I've been kind of idling on making more and starting to use up all my igbs xc

I don't like beetle farming that much, and I can only stand it for about two trips before I start fumbling them. I really hate the noise they make when they fly away!

My preferred method is harvesting perfect fruit and selling them in another town. It can be really annoying when the rotten fruits start appearing, or when you can't find anyone willing to let you sell, but it's still the easiest way. It's nice walking around town, and I've gotten a few pwps that way.

Definetly trading TBT for IGB. Since I got to 120 million doing that, I don't really go out of my way to make money anymore.
I do get some cash selling random items buried in storage I don't need, but it's more to just get rid of them rather than getting money.

 

[focus]

i buy them from tbt lol

Definitely beetle hunting. It doesn't even take me that long, because I've cut down a lot of my trees and dug up the bushes and flowers so only four palm trees, one normal tree and a tree stump remain, so rare beetles re-spawn quite quickly. It only takes me about 20-30 minutes to fill up the box, so I pretty much get 400,000 Bells every night I go to the island in about 20 minutes.

Beetle hunting, I have a really good methodical way of doing it to where I make tons of bells and don't scare off any good beetles, I plan on making a video soon once I get editing software because honestly I think my way of doing it is flawless. I also will catch any sharks that show up while beetle hunting.

Consistency is key. Do the island everyday for beetle farming, and you'll be rolling in bells in no time. What is also cool, every player gets a money rock, so start up 3 players- keep them in tents for all you care, and get their money rocks, all to give to your mayor player, since what's the point of being mayor if you can't collect coffers?

 

[Chiisanacx]

Lol the only thing I can say is beetle hunting like everyone else and fishing at the island. Other ways aren't as successful as beetle hunting and stalking the island. But even though its frustrating to continually fail at sneaking up on beetles and rare bugs its really fun at the same time. I kind of enjoy raging if you get what I mean.

 

[Bam]

Selling perfect fruit in my other town is the easiest, I will never go back to boring beetle hunting!

 

[Eleaf]

I also enjoyed beetle hunting a lot and fishing for sharks.
I also remember waiting for certain days when Reese pays double for some stuff, and sometimes I would sell those specific items. I tried doing the turnip method, but failed at it because I usually couldn't find someone whose Retail was buying turnips a higher price than I bought them for lol. Plus my Retail usually never had good prices for the turnips either haha.

 

[meowlerrz]

I catch beetles on the island and sometimes if I have enough patience I'll fish for sharks. Other than that, an easy way to make bells is selling fruit, especially if you have a lot of fruit trees planted, you can make a good amount of bells every few days. A steady income and you literally don't have to do anything but wait, collect and sell. If I need bells fast I'll sell all of the perfect fruit that I've been hoarding in another town.

 

[Romaki]

I'm so thankful for the island, as a kid it was so hard to get any bells. It does get boring after a while, at least for me, but you don't need that amount of bells to play. You just need them for building, expanding your town.

Shark fishing and farming for coelacanths during rain/snow. Unfortunately I find beetle hunting too tiresome because the rare bugs are so sensitive that they'll fly off even with normal walking and boy, don't get me started on those annoying emperor butterflies and fruit beetle respawns! That's why when I go to the island, I get like 10 emperors and almost 1-2 beetles only and the rest are sharks. I wanna try exchanging TBT for IGB but I have no idea how many TBT does it take for 10mil IGB, haha.

Beetle hunting, but it does get boring... I listen to audiobooks and try to do at least one hunt every night. But I prefer selling perfect fruit in other towns. I like shaking trees and then you get to meet people.
