Defeat Medusa at the Tower of Owen
On your first turn during the battle, use your strongest attack option, whether it's an attack, spell, or item. Then have one character heal the party while the other three attack. Medusa will attack twice per turn and she can use spells such as Fira, Blizarra, and Thundara. An Arctic Wind can cause around 700 damage, but use strong items like this only if you need to. She only has 3000 HP so keep plugging away and she'll wear out.

Cid's Treasure
After blasting the big rock in the beginning of the game, you meet Cid and return him to his town. If you visit his house, you'll discover that his wife is sick. But if you make her better, you'll be handsomely rewarded. So go to the southeast portion of town and you'll find a chest containing elixir. Give it to cid's wife and cid will reward you with the contents of his cellar (a nice load of treasure).

Find the Awesome Wightslayer
When you enter Castle Sasue, there will be a tower to your left and right. Go to the left tower and get all the items there, then go to the right tower. At the top there will be 2 angels beside a chest. When you open it a griffen will attack you, but you can use the bow and arrows you got from the previous tower. Note: I recommend not using the Holy Arrows because you'll need them in Sealed Cave.

Holy Arrows
Entry Location:
Dungeons
When rescuing Princess Sara, a good weapon to use to defeat the undead in the dungeon she is in is a bow and some holy arrows. they do decent damage to the undead. Once you run out, use wooden arrows. They don't always do as much, but they are still decent overall.

A Few Good items, that aren't that hard
Entry Location:
Princess Sara's Castle
When you go to the entrance of the castle, turn left and there should be some sort of watch tower. Climb those stairs and open the boxes as you go. The last chest on the top floor, has a monster guarding it, so you have to beat it. But be careful, it can do some major damage. Once you get all those items, go back to the castles entrance. This time go to the right and do the same thing, opening the chests as you go. You will get some pretty decent items. Enjoy them!

In Vikings cove you may notice a cannon that is pointed towards the water. If you walk up to it, and press A, it fires the cannon. It doesn't do anything as far as I know of, but its a nice little Easter Egg.

Final Fantasy III Glitches
Item Duplication
This trick works on any item you can use in battle, such as Elixirs or Phoenix Downs. Enter the item menu outside of battle. Move the item to be duplicated to the first slot. While in battle, choose the item menu, then press Up + A. If done correctly, you should see a flash of the equipment screen before seeing the main menu again. Press B to cancel. The item is now duplicated. You can repeat this as many times as desired, but be careful not to get more than 99 of an item as it may glitch your game or saved game file. Note: Items can be in either the top left or top right hand corner to be duplicated.
