Trick or Treat Bags!

Mongrel · **Posted:** Sat Nov 01, 2008 2:16 am

Just on the page. I thought I had collected all 6 and not gotten the free NC, but I went back and checked each location again, and it seemed that I had gotten the "bag notification" option a few times but not had that work properly in the system.

Glad to know I'm not the only other person who does this. I checked my SBD... I have over 7000 items in there... 2000 unique. I never sell anything. Instead, it sits in my box and collects virtual dust. Even when I have quests, I don't use my SDB item - I'll buy a new one. One day, it needs to end... but I love just... hoarding... items. Never know when I might need them in the future... but since I'll buy new and keep the old anyway... kinda pointless.

I'm pretty sure there was a Dr. Phil show on hoarding

I seem to do the same thing. I just checked my SDB and found "only" ~5,300 items, ~2,300 unique. I buy new items for quests, too. Sometimes I'll even buy multiples if I find them cheap enough... Then I put the extras in my SDB. Maybe we could start a support group for us NeoHorders

Actually, I've discovered that hoarding on Neopets keeps me from hoarding as much in real life.

Back on topic: I did go ahead and buy at least one of each of the masks, since I only got one of them from opening extra purchased bags. Wish I'd bought a pretty flower mask last year, as last I checked, they had gotten close to unbuyable, if they haven't gone that route yet.

I just did the same, though I found myself wincing just paying some of the prices for them even now.

*tilts head and rolls over*

Just a question in general to these 6 bags that you could collect, whats better to do? Opening them or keeping them closed?

I wasn't online for Halloween to collect the last 3 bags. Does anyone know, if I buy the bags, can I still get the neocash? I bet I can't

The regular trick-or-treat bags don't give you neocash. It was the bags from the ncmall that gave you neocash...

Actually, the 50NC came from collecting all 6 of the regular trick-or-treat bags - you received it at the last location.

The NCMall bags gave you a free NCMall item.

Unfortunately, unless you collected all 6 bags on Halloween, you cannot get the free NC.

I wish I had gotten them, but unfortunately I only just got back into neopets with my 6 and a half year old account.

So was there a chance of actually getting a Halloween paint brush from opening the bags, or was that just a possibility when you were trick-or-treating?
