Thanks for posting here as well, I don't always get around to reading all the posts I get notified about. I have bought donuts, a few boatloads, and several Golden Scratch-R tickets back when there was a 50 coin kick back bonus via Amazon (I play on my Kindle Fire HDX8.9 tablet and buy Amazon Coins in large quantities at at 10% discount for all my Amazon appstore purchases), and I am lucky enough to have a decent amount of free/disposable income to spend on the game. I am a 46 year-old disabled Navy veteran, living on a fixed income, but living with a house mate to reduce my monthly expenses. I have plenty of free time to play the game frequently during the day, and tend to be a perfectionist, and very good about figuring out how to best play any game quickly. I do earn a lot of free Donuts too, in addition to the ones I have purchased. I plan to start a blog soon, detailing everything I've learned from playing the game so that others can use my experience as tips and tricks. So I will copy most of this to that blog, making this good practice for that.

One of the first things I picked up on was House Farming, building up clusters of houses to raise revenue faster. I started with the brown houses, harvesting them frequently during the day then switched to building purple houses, and then blue houses as they became available. I kept some of the brown houses to have around for visiting neighbors to tap on, but eventually switched to mostly building blue houses as they are the best value long term. I would spend every spare dollar on houses unless I had a quest building to buy or needed to buy another Land Expansion because I was out of room. Doing this I got to Level 40 a little over a month after I had started on April 6th, and I now have 800 blue houses that I keep because they earn me over $2,000,000 a day and help me to earn Bonus Levels for 3 Donuts each time.

As for my high bonus, I used to buy mostly white Picket Fence sections and the 40 Donuts decorations that give a 2.00% bonus, but once I had finally unlocked the Jet Engine Bike I switched to buying only those (with the exception of one each of particular items that I wanted despite being less of a value bonus wise) as they are the best value for upping your bonus percentage, at only 30 Donuts for 2.00%, but they did not unlock until I was in the 30's level wise (I forget the exact level). If I had found this Wiki earlier I may have saved my Donuts till the Jet Engine Bike unlocked. I have edited the Donuts page to list the many ways one can get free Donuts in the game, mostly from Bonus Levels, visiting neighbors after hitting the Friendship Level Cap, cleaning Debris (a finite commodity) and from the Sideshow You attraction in Krustyland, as well as the current Secret Bonus Levels part of the Stonecutter 2014 Event.

If you have other questions or I missed something, feel free to post them here and I will answer as soon as I can. That's what I and the other contributors are here to do, help out and share information about the game.
