Deals

The Black Friday deals launches on November 27, 2015 at 8am GMT. There was an offer to buy the Kwik-E-Mart Central Office on Cyber Monday, November 30, 2015.

Gil, upon entering your town and if there is a new rebate offer, spawned and said: "Check out our newest rebate offer!", at which point he appeared with the TO Clock Bubble.png over his head, which upon tapping lead to the Black Friday menu, and he disappeared (In Krustyland, this lead to the "Characters" menu). On Cyber Monday, Gil appeared with Cyber Monday 2015 Icon.png over his head.

If you buy a character that requires a higher level then yours, a system message will appear saying "'character' comes with a premium quest line which will unlock at level 'level'!". The character is playable but you won't unlock his questline till you reach the level.

Note: You require the original amount of DonutDonuts to purchase the item, but you'll receive back the rebate donuts.

Gameplay

November 27th

After the user logs in on November 27:
Marge Yesterday we gave thanks for our many blessings. Today we give thanks for fantastic bargains! It's Black Friday!
Marge Get in the car, everyone. I don't want to miss a minute of fighting other women for the last discount purse.
Homer Oh, I hate that! Some lady always elbows me in the belly.
Bart I feel sorry for the lady who just got her elbow stuck in lard quicksand.
Gil Well, if you hate leaving the house on Black Friday, shop online at Ol' Gil's cyber store!
Gil I've spent all my pharmaceutical trial money collecting a Black Friday grab bag of goodies, and I'm ready to sell them to you. You shop, I ship.
Gil And the cherry on top? Ol' Gil will give you back donuts for every purchase you make!

November 28th

After the user logs in on November 28:
Apu Gil's cyber store will never succeed. People love going to a real store with a friendly clerk.
Apu Hey old man, this is a store, not a retirement home. Buy something or get out!
Apu And come again.
Black Friday 2015 Deal.png

November 29th

After the user logs in on November 29:
Apu Mr. Gunderson, if you think your cyber store can outsell my Kwik-E-Mart, you are sadly mistaken.
Gil Well, I'm feeling pretty good. Care to bet some money on who sells more?
Apu I am not a gambling man.
Apu Actually, my chief source of income is selling lottery scratchers, so perhaps I am. You have a bet!

Item bought

After the user buys an item:
Gil Enjoy your purchase, sir or madam…
Gil ...or child playing on their parent's phone.

Cyber Monday

After the user logs in on November 30:
Gil Boy, it's Cyber Monday, and I've got a whole heap of tech doodads for sale at my cyber store.
Gil Apu doesn't have a chance of winning our bet about who sells more.
Apu You are wrong! The Kwik-E-Mart Central Office is announcing unbeatable deals.
Apu Everything is on sale at our brick and mortar stores, including the bricks and mortar.
Apu In fact, even the Central Office is on sale. Lovely building, Himalayan location, sherpa parking.
Gil If Apu sells that Central Office I'll lose our bet for sure. And I already made a down payment on a cardboard box to sleep in.
Gil I've got to stop it. Luckily, no one is better at blowing a sale than Ol' Gil.

Offer declined

Gil You didn't buy the mountain thing! I won my bet with Apu!
Gil I'm gonna buy some ten-dollar shoes and take Sally from Accounting out for a slice of banana cream pie!
Gil You got lucky this time, Gil. And as every good gambler knows, you've got to keep pushing your luck until it collapses in disaster!

Offer accepted

Gil Aw, you bought the Central Office. That means I lose my bet with Apu.
Gil So long, money. So much for me taking Cindy from Shipping out for cheeseburgers and malted milks.
Gil I wonder if that Central Office is hiring?
