I don’t know why but just two weeks before Christmas, Maggie has brought back last year’s offerings for the farmhouse, truck and stand. But I can see that she has new offerings greyed out in the catalogue. So I’m going to hold out. These days I don’t have coins, vouchers or diamonds to waste. sigh
EDIT: because I can’t count, and hopefully this is just an error and the maintenance will fix it along with the train. 🚂

New stuff announced, although I'm not seeing these offers.

Thanks Tahoe 🐾 Would you kindly let me know just how expensive they each are? I still haven’t gotten them on my farm and I don’t have FB, et al. Thanks.

Thanks @tahoe Would you kindly let me know just how expensive they each are? I still haven’t gotten them on my farm and I don’t have FB, et al. Thanks. I just edited my post as I'm not seeing them offered as of yet (I just saw this info on Instagram on the dashboard).

Thanks tahoe. I was so excited to see the new maggie design. It took so long and this week Maggie has only the old design from last year.
I was thinking about if I should reinstall the old one with all my parts. But it is expensive and if the new one is nice, than I wouldn't waste on the old design. I have to be careful with my coins at the moment.
So I am happy to see how the new design will look like.

I reinstalled my old design last week. The timing for these things is not great

On my main farm, I changed to one of the previous years christmas themes. That was after the maintenance. Those 2023 themes have not shown up, even on my baby farm. That being said, the cost of the items for my baby farm was sooooo much more. (Pic below). On my main farm no diamonds were spent, only coins and a few (very few) vouchers were used. There was also no choice to shuffle for a different theme, on either farm.

I also restrain from buying it back with "discount", it's still too expensive. For a full new house, truck and RSS I have to spend > 200.000 coins. I don't think so, I wait.
Currently I am still very happy with my Halloween design. It fits together with my winter corners. Perhaps I reconsider my decision if the new winter design appeals me enough. We'll see. Everything is possible, nothing is set in stone. 😉🎄

Mom’sCar I think your baby farm had to pay the full costs. If you have no diamonds on your main farm, I think you bought it last year? And you only reinstalled it? You only have to pay diamonds the first time you buy it. If you want it again you have 75% on each. But diamonds aren't required a second time. Then it costs coins. (But I don't know how they change diamonds into the prize in coins).

Last year we did pay diamonds for parts of the themed items. I’m really wondering what the costs are this year. The Insta poster didn’t seem at all pleased.

But normally these special offers always have one part for diamonds. If you want to have the whole design you will need diamonds (i think). I don't collect all designs for my book. This doesn't bother me. So I always buy only the parts I like. (or aren't to expensive )

squirrel - you are most likely correct. That is my play for free farm. I’ve never spent real money, and diamonds only go for slots in permanent machines.

I’m using last year’s, too. Just the porch/ground for Christmas, and a regular house with the Christmas lights. I don’t like the new ones for this year. It’s kind of over-the-top for me. I like decorating but wouldn’t want a house that looks like a giant wrapped present, lol. The reindeer truck I can go with. 😂
(Kind of like I had to tone down a little bit of the “fourth of July” red/white/blue.)

I like the current look of my house, but may just choose the rss one (if we ever see the new ones offered!)

Completely agree with the over-the-topness 😁 of the designs. (Case in point: The Mardi Gras designs earlier this year 🤯😆)
I still buy them (mostly) but I almost always mix and match with other designs to tone them down. I really want these to become available and soon.😔

So just mixed with a normal house wall like the guesthouse. And often I don't buy all of them if some pieces are too expensive.

The current Maggie design which we are supposed to get tomorrow - if we want it, of course - is really, really expensive. More than a half million coins and 55 diamonds. The bons are neglectable since most players in high levels should have more than enough.
I am not ready to spend such a huge amount coins, not to speak diamonds for an outfit which will only last for a short time. It's cute, yes, but tbh, the previous design is more beautiful in my opinion. But that's a mind thing.
I keep my Halloween design and I am satisfied with the winter arrangements I already did. My town is waiting for the last 2 booth, and that's it. For me personally the mix from Halloween and winter is nice and fits very well both, farm and town. No need for an expensive change. 😉🎄⭐️

There was an optional update, but don't know if it was related to her.

Just logged in to see them. Really busy day today. I really need a nap.😆
I’m going to get them all. I like them better than those from last year. That said I shudder to think of the 2024 prices.

I still love last year’s designs. I traded out the truck cab with antlers for the candy cane version Maggie has this year. That’s all. I’m too attached to all the animals in the snow around the house and RSS.

I'll get them as well for the sake of collection. But oh my , my first thought when seeing them today was: "Is that how they came up with Choo Choo gift? Left over wrapping paper? Or vice versa?" Note: Choo Choo gift is the train gift from Gift wrapping station this year.
