How To Earn Lots of Kinzcash!
My
Current Kinzcash: 197,000 (as of 6/6/08)
Do All of the Daily Activities
This is the most obvious way to earn kinzcash. Spin the wheel of wow - even if you only get gunk (which is rare), you can sell it for 6 kinzcash. So you will always get something out of the Wheel of Wow. The Wishing Well2 sometimes pays out very well. Always show your pet that you care with the Care Award. You will get free food and kinzcash every day, plus you will get a chance to earn an exclusive item! Always do Arte's gem hunt. See http://www.elubin.com/webkins/gemhunthelp.aspfor help with the Gem Hunt. Always play Alyssa's Star Challenge. It can be frustrating when you get nothing out of the game, but some days you get paid very well. I've gotten as much as 450 kinzcash for a star so you just never know! If the game of the day is one that you like or are good at it, be sure to play it because you will get bonus kc for playing the game of the day. Don't forget to answer Quizzy's Daily Trivia question. It is not listed in the Daily Activities, so it's easy to forget.
Also, pay attention to the time. If you are on Webkinz, and it becomes a new hour, go to "Today's Activities" and see what the hourly activity is. Sometimes, you will get an extra spin on the wheel of wow, or a spin on the Wheel of Yum. If you are really lucky, they will have the "Big Button of Kinzcash" which has the potential to earn you LOTS of Kinzcash! I earned over 1000kc once on that. They may also be featuring your favorite game for a good bonus. So always check the Hourly Activities on the hour!
Plant A Garden
Note: Carrots are currently the most profitable crop.
You can make quite a profit from gardening. It is an investment, but it does not take long for you to get your money back and start making a good profit. I bought a yard, planted it full of strawberries, and this cost me $5300 kinzcash. But the strawberries can be harvested every 10 days. On my first harvest, I got over $1800! So within a few weeks, I will have gotten my money back that I spent to make the Strawberry Patch, and after that, it will all be my profits!
Carrots and Strawberries are the most profitable crops. I now have 2 Strawberry Patches, and 1 "Carrot Corner." Below is one of my Strawberry Patches.
You can see that I have left a few squares unplanted. Of course, you do not have to do that. You can fill the entire yard if you like (that's 100 plants). I find that if you leave a few squares unplanted however, that you can keep better track of where you are when you are watering them. And it also looks nice! Click on the Tour Link at the very top of this page to see my other 2 gardens. They all have different patterns!
Please Note: If you are going to make a Carrot Garden, make sure you do not make the mistake I did! I accidentally bought a bunch of the carrot plants under "Outdoors." These are not the ones that actually grow carrots! So I had to sell them back for half-price, and lose money. Make sure you buy the carrot seeds under "Gardening"!
About tending to the Garden daily: You do not ever have to water the garden. You only must be sure to rake every day the ones that need raked. If you miss a day of raking, it's no big deal - it just sets the unraked crop a day behind. But if you miss several days, your crops will die and have to be dug up.
Do A Job
Every 8 hours, you can do a job. These can earn you quite a bit of kinzcash, especially once you reach the highest level in one particular job. So, find a job that you are good at, and keep doing that one, so that you will be able to progress through all the levels and earn the most kinzcash for that job. You get paid more for the medium and hard jobs, but, of course, they are harder, so if you cannot successfully complete them, they do you no good. You will end up with nothing, and then won't be able to do another job for 8 hours.
Trading Cards
This is the newest way I have discovered to earn kinzcash! Sometimes, you can get very lucky with trading cards. Many of the feature codes are for an amount of kinzcash. Sometimes, it's not much. Other times, it's quite a lot! I've gotten up to $5000 from a feature code. Besides kinzcash, you can get rare items, which, if you already have, you can either sell them for quite a bit of kinzcash, or you can trade them. You often get a set of coupons, which can help a lot! I've gotten lots of coupons for 80% off of something at the W-Shop. If there's nothing you want from the W-Shop, then buy the most expensive item there (the oak pool I believe) with your 80% coupon, and then sell it back! You'll end up with a profit! You also get some coupons for a free spin on the Wheel of Wow. You can also get Kinzstyle clothes from Trading Cards! That's very exciting to me, because I'd like to have some of the Kinzstyle-only outfits, but I didn't really want to buy the Webkinz clothes.
And moreover, you can win a free online pet with Trading Cards! This will of course give you a great boost in kinzcash, besides giving you another pet! They say that there is one free pet card per every 36 packs of trading cards. But I've gotten much luckier! I averaged it out, and I have gotten 1 free pet for every 20 packs!
The Charm Forest
If you have any charms, be sure to visit the Magical Charm Forest. You may visit every 6 hours. The charms only cost $2.99 in my area, and even one charm will allow you access to the Forest. My most common find is a coin for 100 kinzcash. That is certainly helpful when you are trying to earn more kinzcash! Besides a coin for 100 kinzcash, you may also win special recipe food, charm candy (you can sell it for 5 kinzcash), a special Bad Fairy or Good Fairy T-shirt, and of course, a virtual charm. So far, I have only been able to unlock one of the charms, and I got 500 kinzcash for doing so.
Play in the Tournament Arena
If a game that you like to play is available in the Tournament Arena, always play it there instead of in the Arcade. This way, not only do you earn all the regular kinzcash for playing, but if you can place in the top in the tournament, you get additional kinzcash. Play a game that you are good at. Even if a game does not have a high payout rate, if you can win a tournament, you can get lots of kinzcash from it. For example, I get an average of only 6 kc from playing Wacky Zingoz. But if I place in the tournament, I can get up to 50kc in addition.
The games that I earn the most kc from are Cash Cow, Goober's Lab, Quizzy's Word Challenge, Candy Bash, and Go Go Googles. But this may be different for you, depending on which games you are good at. While not available in the Tournament Arena, I also can get a lot of kc from Tile Towers.
Take the Survey Twice a Week
A new survey usually comes out on Monday and another one on Friday. You can find it by clicking on "Contact Us." It only takes a few seconds, and you get 50kc just for answering! This also allows you to give your input on features of Webkinz World.
Quizzy's!
This is absolutely the quickest way to earn Kinzcash! I like to do the Calendar Trivia. If you have not yet done all of the Calendar Trivia, you can go back as far as January 2005 and answer all the questions. This is fun because you reveal a picture by doing the trivia, and get the usual payout for answering the questions. You can also just click on an age group and then pick a topic that you are good at, and answer the questions that way. Even if you totally miss the question, you still get 2 points! Also, remember to do the Daily Bonus Question. You get 10 kc for it.
Sell Some Things!
You can sell items at the W Shop. I always sell my Welcome Balloons. You only get 10 kc out of them, but I just really do not want them anyway, so I'd rather have the 10kc than the balloon. Some people collect the balloons, which is great, but I just find that they get in the way more than anything. If you receive something from the Wheel of Wow that you already have or do not want, sell it. Go through your house and see if there is anything that you no longer want. Just be sure not to sell anything that you might want later, because that will end up just costing you. **Do not sell an exclusive item, unless you can't trade it. Instead, try to trade it for a rare item. You can sell the rare item for more kinzcash than you would get out of the exclusive, most of the time.
Adopt More Webkinz!
Ok, I admit that it seems silly to spend real money so that you can get fake money! So do not just adopt a Webkinz to get kinzcash. But if you do decide that you want another Webkinz, you will get a great kinzcash boost! You receive 2000 kc, plus a medium room with each of your first 9 adoptions. After that, you receive 3500 kc, but no room. You can make your own room with the extra kc that you got. At this point, you might want to take a look at your Webkinz house, and see if there are any extra rooms that you do not use anymore. You can redecorate it and make it into the bedroom for your new pet, instead of having to spend more kc on another one. I did this with one of my pets. I had made a Guest Room, and when I adopted my lil Yorkie, I decided that the Guest Room was actually perfect for her, so I just changed the name of it and voila, I had a free room for my lil Yorkie!
Be A Smart Grocery Shopper
If you are running really low on kinzcash, be careful about what you buy at the Grocery Store! The Special Food that comes with your pet is quite expensive as far as food goes! It costs 25kc, and while it's good for your pet, there is no sense in buying it if you are really low on kinzcash. You can make your pet just as healthy and happy by buying cheaper items. Also, pay attention to which food items are on sale that day. See http://www.elubin.com/webkins/foods.asp for a nice chart of how much each food boosts your pet's health, happiness, and hunger level. If your pet is really hungry, be sure to buy a food which will boost its hunger level a lot. Also, plant a garden. This will pay off, because you will be able to harvest your own food, and the pets just love it!
And Last But Not Least, Be Patient!
The longer you have your Webkinz account, the more money you will be able to keep. At first, you are buying a lot of things for your house. You want to make them a bathroom, a kitchen, yard, etc. Making rooms costs lots of money! And you are buying them clothes, toys, and other things. But after a while, you will have bought pretty much all the clothing that you like, and will not need to be making so many rooms. Once you have the basics, you will be able to keep lots more of your hard-earned kinzcash. Then, you can save up some, and just build rooms when you can do so without putting a huge dent in your kinzcash level! So, just be patient. Don't get frustrated about never having enough kinzcash, because eventually, I think you will be able to have more.
This is the most obvious way to earn kinzcash. Spin the wheel of wow - even if you only get gunk (which is rare), you can sell it for 6 kinzcash.
