who knew just 2 mermaid beds sold for 89,600 bells

i made 4 of them .. the first 2 let me pay of the rest of my new suspension bridge...

& the other 2 let me pay off the rest of my house loan, it left me with 23,930 bells ^^

That villagers give you framed photos. I didn't know they did that, I thought you only had posters

But Marshal gave me a photo of himself, and I didn't know they did that. Or why

If you have the sand tool equipped, and at least three connecting squares of sand, you can round out the outermost corner!
If you make a 6 by 6 square and round each of the edges of the square, you can make a large circle! A 4 by 4 square rounded out makes a smaller one.

I've known this for a while but just recently came across it again while terraforming. Rocks can appear on light dirt, dark dirt, and sand paths.
Putting it here in case anybody didn't know ^-^

As for things I didn't know... Shamrock soda isn't a drink you can only cheer with it.

I learned you can plant on hard surfaces!

Stone has a special texture when being dug into. Without you posting that I would have never saw this, tysm!

Pressing the A button twice while crafting speeds up the animation. Actually I learned this a while ago from a YouTube video but didn't get around to sharing it on here until now.

Today I learned that if you don't have a net in your inventory when talking to Wisp about finding his missing pieces, he will notice you don't have one and give you advice on how to make one. I thought this was a cute detail that could be helpful for very new players that haven't gotten used to crafting yet.

Today I learned that the developers did change the flaw in the jocks' dialogue from "Like that shirt" (which made no sense if you were wearing a dress) to "Like those threads" which sounds kind of like hippie talk but is still an improvement. There also seems to be more dialogue depth.

This is unreal.
I can't wait to try it.

It didn't work for me.
I don't think I covered enough ground with the stone path.

I just now learned that when you are trying to catch a tarantula on the beach and it's in the shallow water and you miss it, it doesn't jump and bite you but instead dives into the water. Weird!

 

[VanitasFan26]

I just learned that after putting the wardrobe outside and changed clothes I somehow got a Nook Mile task to change clothes. I played this game for a year and I never knew about this. I am someone who is not a fan of fashion and I don't really care about changing clothes but I did it for once and it was a new thing that I didn't know that changing clothes would sometimes have a nook mile task.

i JUST learned last night that you can customize the tools you buy from nooks cranny, as well as the frames of the photos your villagers give you. i felt so ridiculous for not knowing, since you can customize the diy tools, but still XD

I learned about that too and it makes the gold tools feel more pointless since when you customize them it restarts their durability.

It got patched in the Sanrio update.

Oh, I thought it was a new glitch from the update.

Speaking of glitches, or just crazy timing.
I just knocked on Vivian's door and she wasn't inside.

Nowhere to be found.
I go outside and she's there.

I must have walked in at the exact time she walked out.
