PSA for people leveling their island: Save your blue crowies.

Rank 10 unlocks a really sweet motorcycle that costs 24k of the blue currency. I wish I had known this myself before buying one of the hairstyles a few days ago.

Didn't see this anywhere else so I figured I'd share for people who didn't know.

While I've enjoyed all the mounts I've collected over the past year in this game, this is the first time I've actually been psyched for one.

The only thing you "need" to spend cowries on is expansions and the granary.

Yes but almost everything you spend your cowries on gives you a hefty chunk of experience in return.

Unless you're going to sit there and level up your IS to 10 through gathering alone, spending cowries to get that extra experience(or to buy out the shop exclusive seeds for planting) will get you to level 10 faster and thus get you closer to your bike faster.

The only thing you directly get xp for when spending the blue is the expansions, which I mentioned already. Wasting them for other seed types has no advantage at all because the workshop values for radishes are the same as popotos.

You can always get more cowries.

Obviously, but I figured I'd to something nice and try to save people time. I won't bother next time.
