But what's this? Those items can only be bought with G-coins, TM's currency for REAL money! What are you to do? FEAR NOT! Minty will show you how, as a pure cc user, to make a living on TM and get those nice items.
1. YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING TO PUT IN SOME EFFORT. Seriously, if you're not willing to do more than point and click, this guide will do nothing for you. Personally, I find working for my nice items makes it more rewarding when I get them (it should be noted that, no, I am not a pure cc user, but I buy very little GC, and was able to get most of my really nice items by the following these steps.)
2. GET FRIENDLY WITH DOKI DOKI. In order to compete, you're going to need A LOT of cc. Doki Doki can give you around 400 cc with each game (going to level 20), a huge boost when you need it most. Sometimes, Doki might not work. Clear your cache (delete all your cookies). If this does not work, send a ticket to Support for help. (Talking about friends, having 100 friends gives you a 100 cc bonus each day when you open Selfy Town. Not bad at all)
3. SPIN FOR THOSE CAMPAIGN ITEMS. Every once in a blue moon, TM will release a campaign animated that only requires cc gacha items (more often, they have released animated and faces in the cc gacha). These will be worth less than their GC counterparts, but here's the thing: if you QUICKLY get these items to be one of the first to trade them, you will get MORE for them. Don't wait for the market to become saturated with them.
EDIT B: The new setup for the chibi coin gacha has done away with some of the old ways of trading for GC, BUT Kokoro bags have opened a new opportunity. People have been wanting, and trying to trade for, the animated exchange items, so they have around the same price tag as animated out of the G-coin gacha. Yes, they're hard to save up for, but well worth your effort.
4. EVENT! There has never been a better time to participate in events! Why? With alchemy, people are looking for cheap animateds to combine into better animateds, so those less-than-amazing animateds from events can get you a couple of nice GC in your inventory. There is also still demand for event items that are harder to get (Doki events, medal events, ect.), as not everyone can participate in them.
5. YOU CAN GET GC FOR FREE. Offer walls give you GC for performing menial tasks, such as completing surveys, watching videos, or doing some busy work. You might not be able to do all the offers (most of the surveys are intended for people who are in a minority of whatever area), but those you can will net you some GC for those gacha. Be CAREFUL though, some of the offers are known to give people viruses (especially avoid offers that ask you to download something).
6. CAN YOU DRAW? There's a flourishing art market here on TM, and if you have the skills, you can sell it. Art contests also offer some very nice prizes to the winners. There's also demand for profile makers (for those who are HTML savvy).
7. GIVEAWAYS. At the bottom, as you really shouldn't DEPEND on this, but there are some very nice people who give away some very nice things. Be courteous about anything you get! Even it's some ugly cc, it's still something that someone else decided to give to you free of charge, so be grateful. Complaining about gifts is the fastest way to make enemies.
