Hey there Clammers!
It is the last day of the 2014 Year and TinyCo has decided to drop the price for the majority of their Clam Packages. WOOHOO!!
On top of that it seems that lil Stewie didn’t get everything HE wanted for Christmas, especially a Firetruck. So if you are looking to purchase some Clams, you can get Stewie’s Firetruck Free with ANY Clam Package purchase.
Stewie: Hmm… it seems I’m still missing a Firetruck from my Christmas List this year.
(The Firetruck Offer will start the 24 hour clock on it as soon as you trigger the task. )
More info on the Firetruck coming… waiting until I stop. 😉
As soon as you purchase your Clams (even the smallest amount), you will see a pop up from Peter completing the “Put Out The Fire!” task. Then a second Pop Up will appear telling you the Firetruck is in your inventory.
I found mine ALLLLL the way at the end of the Decorations Tab in my Inventory.
Stewie’s Festive Firetruck is small (about a 1×2 or 1×3), adorable, animated when tapped (moving ladder/flashing lights), and just like Meg’s Car and Peter’s Tank…is a mobile item that drives around on the roads. No sound that I heard on it, though I probably wouldn’t mind NOT hearing a siren. Lol.
So head on over to the Clam Shack and pick yourself up a shell or three if you want to. Remember, the sale is ONLY for today!! (This is the U.S. cost from my game, yours may vary for your region)
Tank of 3,500 Clams: $79.99
Drum of 1,600 Clams: $39.99
Crate of 600 Clams: $15.99
Bin of 275 Clams: $7.99
Box of 130 Clams: $3.99
Packet of 50 Clams: $1.99
What do you think of the sale? Are you going to pick you up a few Clams? Did you already? If so, which one? Let us know.

Every time I try to get the crate of clams I just get the squirrel running around and then it gives up.

Could be a connection to your app market. This is what I do when that happens. Force Close the app. Go to my App Market and log out. Restart Device. When it powers back up, log back into the App Market first, then I launch FG:TQFS. See if that helps. Also, make sure you got a good strong signal for it to connect as it processes the purchase.
Let us know if that helps.

Wasnt sure where to put this, so i decided here. After the christmas event ended and i restarted my game for the new load and i had a bunch of characters waiting for tasks. So i was going through and giving them a bunch of 12 hour tasks. I came across the Freddy Kruger character (if you have him). His 12 hour task is grilling shishkabobs. However I noticed for his task payout was his normal xp points, BUT instead of the coin symbol it showed a wrapped stack of cash with a value of 999 next to it. Have never seen this so i decided to try it and see what happens. Guess we’ll see what happens. He hasnt finished yet and didnt see this for any other characters. So i dont know if this is a glitch of some sort or a slight glimpse into a future thing in the game. ALSO, dont forget to switch all your snow covered building skins back over to the regular ones so you get your coins and xp points much quicker versus how long they took during the christmas event.

We saw that too. Normal. It is a “placeholder” for a task that was paying event currency but now regular again. Not all switched over all the way yet.

I’m in New Zealand. I decided to buy the 275 clam offer which shows $9.99 down to $7.99, however when the purchase went through iTunes I was charged the full price. It’s only $2 so not the end of the world but still it’s not what was advertised. Would it be appropriate to contact Tiny Co about this? I’m more than happy to add 20% extra clams to make up the difference 😀.

I am not sure if that is an issue from TinyCo or iOS. Contact both just in case.

D’oh! I just spent $10 on clams yesterday to open up the Tom Tucker box in the store and get all of the premium stuff. I really shouldn’t do another sale, but this one is tempting… On the bright side, for around 700 clams I got Hindenpeter, Pawtucket Ale Truck, Crippletron, Daggermouth Cave, Open Flame Garden, Peter’s pirate car, Golden Peter Statue, the Peterang, and (my favorite) the Petercopter. Not a bad deal considering at least two of those items by themselves cost more clams than I spent in total! 😀

iOS? If so, it is something you may need to check on your app market for. Mine says that when there is a payment issue or connection issue. So…I go out of the game. Log out of the app market, reset my device, go back into the app market first and log back in, then relaunch Family Guy.

You never HAVE to spend Clams. It is all a choice. YOUR choice. What you invest, if you choose to invest…is all up to you. Without SOMEONE investing in the game, how can it even exist?
I get you didn’t like the Yeti. But don’t judge everything on one aspect of a massive event with TONS of free stuff, including clams, left and right. 😉

This is a little odd. Normally the prices for clams in Canada are inflated because of the exchange (so for instance the 19.99 package is normally 21 dollars and change) , however for the sale they are listed as $16.99 down from $19.99. I’m hoping this is TC bringing prices on par with the US store and not a 1 time thing.

Its true i just noticed that too. The big one is 106.49 or so Canadian and 99.99 us. Cool.

Not only that but we have the 20% off sticker and it shows the UK price when you click to buy, if I had not checked on the converter I would have thought I was getting a deal, but wasn’t. I hope they fix this

I’m guessing it’s that we don’t get 20% off in the UK.
A crate of clams is normally £11.90, the sale price is £10.28 but 20% off would really be £9.52. Same with the bin and box of clams, £5.95 and £2.97, sale price is £5.13 and £2.56. 20% off should be £4.76 and £2.38.
I’m in a rush and don’t have to time to figure out the exact numbers but the crate is less than 15% off. It’s still a nice deal but not quite what’s advertised.
LikeLike
I do not know how the conversion works out of the U.S. I do know that many of my friends have to pay MORE on iOS items as they’re “marked up” when they leave the U.S. That is something you would have to ask your app market and verify with TinyCo if there is a difference. Sorry

We do not allow “attacks” on anyone…companies included…on our site. If you feel there is ill will, then you will need to discuss it with them. As you may not work for either of the companies involved, it is not fair to pass judgement. Along with not knowing ALL the details…who did what to cause what, etc…we will not allow “attacks” on anyone or anything that will incite “flame wars” “hate speech” or cause other chaos. It goes DIRECTLY against our guidelines here.
No one will be allowed to be a “Judge, Jury, and Executioner”. Sorry…but we do not tolerate that here at all.
That would be like me calling you a hacker and a thief. How do I know that? I do not know you? Do not know your business. Do not know your practices. For me to judge you so harshly is cruel and unkind.
We are happy to help with things that are appropriate and that are following our guidelines. Kindness goes a long way. There are appropriate ways to approach things and and to discuss things. Outright attacks and accusations are NOT appropriate. I am sure you understand.
