Annoy Your Neighbors

This is a perfect way to get rid of neighbors you don't want. Just make sure you've visited a friend's town before! First, buy a net. Once you find the neighbor you want out, or just want to annoy, equip the net and hit them with it! Keep hitting them over and over. They'll probably whine and ask why you did that. If you accidently talk to them, just say, 'I don't need you!' or any other option that gets you out of the conversation.

But don't write threat letters! Next time you talk to them, they'll be all proud that they got a letter, and they won't notice what it says!

Snowman Furniture

During the winter, you'll see two snowballs around your town. Roll both of them into a medium size, then stack them onto each other. If the snowman likes himself, you'll get a rare piece of snowman furniture the next day. Also, if you roll the snowballs into the lower left corner of the town, the snowman will like himself even more and send you two pieces of rare snowman furniture instead of one.

Submitted By: Stickmeister

Different Hair Styles for Girls

You can go into the salon and choose your own style and color by answering a few of Harriet's questions. To get your hair pulled up in a hair-tie, answer "big nights" to her first question, "duh" to her second question and "RAWK!" to type of song.

For hair color, choosing hot will get you pink, red, or yellow, while cold will get you blue, green, or white. Then you'll be able to pick your exact color by choosing the following:
- Young = blue
- Lush = green
- Radiant = white
- Mysterious or Safe = brown
- Lighthearted = yellow
- Fiery = red
- Flirty = pink

Of course there are many different styles, but I don't know exactly what they are. I hope you all like what you come up with. But remember, getting your hair done costs a whopping 3,000 bells! So think about it before you drop your cash for an ugly hair-do!

No Need for Watering Cans

Entry Location:
Tree sightings

The best way to grow a tree is to plant it when it's raining because it will grow automatically and won't need to be watered. Another way to make them grow automatically is to first chop down an unneeded tree, then take your shovel and dig it out, and dont FILL IN THE HOLE. Instead take the fruit you want and bury it. It shoud start growing by the next day. You don't need a watering can for either of these methods.

His insurance says whenever you get stung by a bee he will send you 100 bells in the mail. By it for 3000 bells. When you buy it he will ask you when you want Redd to come to your town. Tell him whatever day you prefer and he will set up a tent. He will send you some passwords to get into his tent. When you go into his tent he will have very rare items believe me it is worth it.
P.S. Lyle will come back to your town and offer insurance again. Do not talk to him because he will charge you 6000 bells and he will keep doubling the price every time you talk to him.
