Animal Crossing: Wild World Cheat Codes Earning Bells
From LoveToKnow VideoGames
Starting out in Animal Crossing: Wild World can be tough. With a huge loan hanging over your head and very little means to make some money, how will you pay off your debt and get a bigger house? How will you get that barbecue you're lusting after? Should you make donations now or wait? If you're a little short on bells, our guide to making money in this game will help you become the philanthropist we know you're itching to be.
Or you can fill your home with bags of money and run around screaming, "Show me the money!!!"
Earning Bells
Building a fortune in Animal Crossing: Wild World is a lot like going to an all you can eat buffet: there's a whole lot to choose from but you can only hold here, so you have to choose where to focus your spending in order to get what you want.
In the beginning there are three ways to make money: selling seashells, selling fruit, and shaking trees for bags of bells. The most reliable ways are to sell things you pick up around your village to Tom Nook.
Seashells for Cash
Run down to the beach and pick up everything you see. Some shells are worth a pretty bell, while others aren't as pricey. If you find a coconut, hold onto it until you can purchase a shovel. Use the shovel to plant the nut no more than 10 squares away from the sea. The tree will eventually grow and bear more coconuts for you to sell! Otherwise, grab and sell everything you find on the beach, you'll need every bell you can get.

Fruity Bells
Fruit is easily obtainable, just go shake trees holding the suckers. Your native fruit sells for 100 bells each. If you can obtain some foreign fruits from a WiFi friend, do it! Grab some non-local produce from another village, plant a few and sell the rest. Foreign fruits sell for 500 bells apiece, netting you a nice profit early in the game! If you can't connect with friends, simply mail a few letters to your neighbors and attach a piece of fruit. Eventually someone will send a response and include another type of fruit!
Tools for Profit
After you make some dough, the first things you'll want to buy will be basic tools. Not only will you need these to customize your village, but they're an easy way to earn more bells. Buy tools in this order to maximize your cash intake:
- Shovel - Used to dig up fossils, gyroids and other surprises.
- Fishing rod - Catch fish and sell them for a tidy sum.
- Slingshot - Shoot gifts out of the sky.
- Net - Catch bugs and sell for some cash.
- Watering can - Keep the flowers alive.
- Axe - Chop trees.
More Money Tips
- Buy a second shovel, then bury one just outside of your house. The next morning, dig it up to get a Golden Shovel. Use the Golden Shovel to bury a bag of money to grow a Money Tree. Every day you can shake this tree for a bag of cash.
- Each day, one rock in your village holds a ton of bells. Run around with a Golden Shovel and hit the rocks until you find it. When you discover the magic stone, you'll find you can keep slamming it to get more bags. Problem is, you slide back with each hit. To get the maximum amount, dig a hole behind you to keep you from moving too far away. Then wail at the rock until you've tapped it dry. You can net around 8,000 big ones in a day with this method!
