Golden Shovel Passwords From: vachephence. If you don't want to work for the Golden Shovel, then just type in the code below. To do so, go to the store owned by Tom Nook. While talking to him, say 'other things', then say 'say code'. Free Bells: Talk to Tom Nook, and give him the code 'WB2&pARAcnOwnU (new line) jMCK%hTk8JHyrT'. You can only do this three times a day, but you should receive 30,000 bells each time!

Get Cash

Sell fruit, fish, shells, bugs, or other unused stuff to Nook. He’ll only give you 25% of what you paid for the item though.

Maximize your time by not selling cheaper fish. You’re better off throwing it back in the water and fishing for more expensive fish. That way you won’t have to go back and forth between Nook’s and the river/sea so many times.

Send presents to the villagers in your letters and they’ll send you furniture or different kinds of fruit that are not native to your town. They’re worth 500 bells instead of 100, but if you plant them you’ll have many trees with lots of fruits that are worth 500 bells!

Deposit money in your bank account and you’ll earn interest every month. You can also cheat by changing the date and get a lot of money in interest. However, be careful because the town will be full of weeds. If you decide to do it, you might as well do it several times to make it worthwhile.

Shake trees and you’ll find a few bells here and there or even hidden furniture. If the bees come out, they will most likely sting you, but you should try to catch them, as they’re worth 4,500 bells at Nook’s!

Do errands for your neighbors and they’ll reward you with furniture or other objects. You can keep these objects or sell them to Tom Nook for some cash.

Fish at the ocean at night time, when it’s snowing or raining. It’s your best chance to fish a Coelacanth, which is worth 15,000 bells. You also have more chances to catch the Red Snapper and the Knifejaw. These are worth 3,000 and 5,000 respectively.

Hit all the rocks in town once a day. One of them will turn red and spit out money bags. Hit it several times consecutively, and you’ll get more money. You can dig three holes around yourself and the rock so when you hit it you don’t accidentally step back. You have to do this before hitting each rock for the first time though.

When you see “stars” in the ground, use your shovel to dig out a fossil, which you can donate at the museum (for free) or sell it to Nook for big bucks after it’s been identified by Blathers the owl. Sometimes it won’t be a fossil, but you can still sell the Gyroids. Pitfall seeds are worthless though.

When you see a glowing portion of earth, make a hole with the shovel and bury a money bag. In a couple of days, it should grow into a money tree.

You’ll receive money in a letter from your parents on January 1st – It will contain 10,000 bells. You can change the Gamecube’s date back and forth between different years, always on January 1st, and that way you’ll receive a bunch of letters with 10,000 bells. However, there’s some risk. You may lose some of your beloved neighbors, and your town will be full of weeds!

Special Visitors

Chip: (6am-6pm June-November) He holds a fishing tourney every Sunday during the months of June and November. He’ll give you a prize if you caught the biggest bass that day (so far). At the end of the day, if you were the winner, you’ll receive a prize on the mail.

Franklin: (3pm to 9pm on Thanksgiving) Find him hiding behind trees and buildings. Give him the forks Tortimer gives you at the Town Hall and he’ll give you special “Harvest” furniture. You can repeat this until you have the whole collection.

Gracie: (6am-6am – 24 hours on a random day) Wash her car by tapping A really fast when she asks you to and she’ll give you one of her unique shirts.

Jack: (6pm Oct. 31 to 1am Nov. 1) Everyone in town will be dressed up like Jack that day, but you have to find the real Jack. He will not chase you, but you’ll have to give him candy you bought at Nook’s during the month of November. He’ll give you “Spooky” furniture. If you’re persistent, you’ll find the whole collection.

Jingle: (Dec. 24 – 8pm to Dec. 25 – 1am) Talk to him several times and he’ll give you pieces of the “Jingle” series furniture. Only trick is…you have to change your clothes each time so he doesn’t recognize you!

Joan: (Sunday 6am – Noon) Buy turnips from her and sell them to Nook any day of the week except Sundays. The prices vary like the stock market, so you may make extra money or lose some. Also, you can buy red turnips from her, which you can plant for a special surprise. Turnips rot after a week, so sell them before that!

Katrina: (9pm – 9pm- 24 hours on a random day) She’ll tell you your fortune. Sometimes it’s nothing important, but sometimes she will tell you something special.

K.K. Slider (aka Totakeke) (Saturday 6pm to Midnight) Watch him play music at the cafeteria. He’ll give you a record after the song is done so you can play the music at home. Find the song list at the bottom of the page.

Mr. Resetti (After You Don’t Save the Game) You should be familiar with him by now, but he shows up every time you forget to save your game before quitting. He’ll be really annoying and will talk and talk until he thinks you’ve understood why it’s important to save.

Nat (3rd Saturday in June, July, August, and September) Nat hosts the Bug Catching Contest. He’ll reward you with gifts each time you bring him the rarest bug. Also, he’ll send you the Bug Trophy if you were able to catch the rarest bug that day.

Saharah: (6am to 6am – 24 hours on a random day) She trades rare and exotic carpets for one of your carpets and some money. The prices go up the more you buy from her, but sometimes it’s worth it.

Snowman: (Dec. 25 to Mid-February) If you notice small balls of snow in the ground you should roll them around to make them bigger. Find another ball and roll it on top of the other to make a snowman. If it has the right proportions, he’ll give you special “Snowman” furniture. If he’s out of proportion, he’ll just complain.

Wendell: (6am to 6am – 24 hours on a random day) When you find him, you’ll have the opportunity to give him fish three times. He’ll give you wallpapers in exchange.

Wisp: (Midnight-3am) He’ll appear in your town every night, and you have to catch him with your net. When you let him go, he’ll let you choose one of several items, including rare furniture and objects.

Other Hints and Secrets

Get NES Games:
There are a few other ways to obtain NES games, but here are a few:

1. When you’re done running errands for Nook, you’ll receive a “welcome package” with three items. Two of them are NES games.
2. Talk to the neighbors and eventually one of them will ask you when your birthday is, especially if you choose the 2nd talk option once in a while. Tell them and, on your birthday, one of the neighbors will visit with a present for you, a NES!
3. When you go to the Island (special GBA connection), give the villager a shovel and he might dig out a NES game. You can then try to bribe him with fruit.
4. On Christmas’ Eve, you’ll get a NES game on the mail. Yeay!

Pick a Song from Totakeke
Fill your pockets so you can’t carry any more items. Go to the concert and hear the song. Totakeke (a.k.a. K.K. Slider) will realize you don’t have room to store his music track. Keep coming back with your pockets full and listen to the different songs. When you hear one you like, come back with space in your pockets, request the song, and when he’s done singing you’ll get the copy you wanted.

Talk to the Neighbors
Talk to the neighbors you come across a few times. They might get angry, but you’ll also find out more about them and they might play games with you or ask you to do errands for them so you can get objects as a reward.

Making Mr. Resetti Angry and meeting Don Resetti
Turn off the Gamecube without saving, and Resetti will show up to give you his lecture. Keep doing it and he’ll get even angrier! At some point, his brother Don will be the one lecturing you, and if you insist in not saving (about 60 times), Mr. Resetti will come back and kick out everyone in town to give you a lesson.

Make your Neighbors Angry
Walk into the neighbors and push them around or hit them with the shovel or bug net. They’ll become mad and steam will come out of their heads.

Changing the Clock
You can hold A and B when the Gamecube logo appears before you start any games. There you can change the date and time so you can play on a different date in Animal Crossing. The other option is to start the game and select “Before I go…” You can change the game’s clock here without affecting the Gamecube’s clock and therefore other games. Either way, it’s always best to just play on the current date and time. If you change the clock back and forth you may miss stuff like special objects, so it’s not recommended to disrupt the programmed chain of events in Animal Crossing.

Nature’s Punishment
Play your game at least once a week, or the next time you go back to it, the town will be full of weeds and your flowers may be gone or dying. Same thing will happen if you start cheating by changing the date radically.
