Bakery Story 4th of July Goals

Happy 4th of July ! 

I hope you all have a fantastic day of fireworks, BBQs, parades and family! 

However with this month's goals there has been a large uproar about the use of gems. 

Sadly, you MUST spend a minimum of 42 gems to complete this goal. 

Myself and my neighbor Sweet Treats have asked our neighbors what their thoughts are about this. 

Here are some of the responses

Some of Sweet Treat's neighbors' responses:

I didn't even know that you can gain gems by ads ! I've searched all around Bakery Story (I am an iOS player) and have not found where I can watch ads for free gems. 

After all the controversy, I decided to play the goals as far as I could.

3. Get Nutty! (Yeah we all got nutty when we saw that we have to PAY 10 GEMS)

Serve 15 Peanut Pies

Buy 1 Pie Table Display

Costs:

Unlocks: Banana Pie

The Pie Table Display selling for 10 GEMS so instead I skipped for 5 gems. 

4. Banana-Rama

Serve 20 Banana Pies

Buy 3 Rocket Counters

Okay, nothing requires gems here. Let's continue I said to myself. 

Costs:

Rewards: $2,900    75XP

Unlocks:

5. Tasting Table

Buy 4 July Chairs

Buy 4 Banner Tables 

Buy 2 Popcorn Buckets

And here is where it pushed me over. 

4 Banner Tables x 2 gems= 8 gems

Plus 2 Popcorn Buckets x 12 gems= 24

= 32 gems for this step alone !!! No way!!! 

So here is where I stopped. Also because I didn't have enough gems. I don't know what TeamLava was thinking! This is wayyyy too much for even a person who has been playing the games for a long time could even afford and this probably pushed away new users.
