How to "harvest" or collect in your own city.

As stated previously, first look around your city to see if any neighbors have visited. After you follow them around or if they aren't present, collect with the following guidelines.

Would you believe me if I told you that I got a $6038 coin bonus once or twice from collecting from a neighborhood of about twelve houses? First, they were linked together by decorations that have big pay-offs, but that explanation is for another post. The most important thing was the way I collected.

Pick 12 houses close together, make sure you have at least 12 energy units available so that you aren't interrupted, then click on each house in a semi-circular or circular pattern. As each money icon (coin, bag or gold bar) and star appears, click on each quickly but accurately and IN ORDER. Before, I referenced a shooter at an arcade. That's you when collecting, okay? follow the same pattern by which you clicked. When you're done, check out the bonus bar. If, out of the corner of your eye, you see the bonus bar say "OMGEEZER", you're doing well. However, those encouraging words at the bonus bar are DISTRACTIONS! Don't let them divert you from your mission.

Go on to another neighborhood of a dozen houses and repeat.

If you want to collect from businesses, do the same thing, but with maybe only nine or ten at a time. Follow and click each money icon and star in the same pattern and order that you clicked the business with or on. WARNING: BANDITS are a distraction to keep you from collecting bonuses. IGNORE BANDITS UNTIL YOU ARE THROUGH CLICKING ON THOSE BUSINESSES. Guess what? The bandits will wait. They will still be there. Then try to capture them and collect the money you earned by doing so. Celebrate or ask for donuts only AFTER you collect from a group of stores.

With crops...same thing. Collect in a circular pattern from 10 - 12 plots at once. Quickly but surely click on each "goods" icon and star, then check for bonuses. A patch of twelve pumpkin plots has many times netted me bonuses of over $2000 city coins. Then go on to another patch of plots.

Click on your goods as you unload your train and factory.
