10 Tips To Get You Started!
1) Don't forget to check for the Newbie Pack from your 'Inventory'. :)

2)Create your own shop by going here and following the instructions. It will cost you 150NP and give you room for 5 items. To upgrade your shop click on the 'Create/Edit a Shop' link and click the button at the bottom. Every upgrade costs more money than the last time and always gives you room for 5 more items. First thing to do would be sell your newbie pack :)

3) You will want a 'Bank Account'. So go open one up by clicking on the bank icon in the top bar. The info you enter doesn't really matter, so be creative as you wish :) Don't forget to check everyday for your intrest. Just be sure to click on the button before you make any deposits of withdrawls.

4) Many times throughout the game you will need to know the current value of some items. We recommend that you open up a new browser window and then visit the 'Shop Wizard'. Type the name of the item you are interested in in the 'What are you looking for?' edit box and then choose 'identical to my phrase' from the drop-down box. Click on the 'Search Shops' button and you will see a list of shops offering that item and how many NP they are asking. Make a note of the cheapest price and then click the back button on your browser. Repeat this several times. Now you should have a pretty good idea what your item is worth and you can put this value in your 'Shop Stock' list.

5) Once every item in your 'Shop Stock' list has a price then click the 'Update Prices' button. Click on the 'Shop Front' link to see how your shop will look to others :) The 'Shop Till' link will let you see how much money you have made and also withdraw it. The 'Sales History' will list all items over 300NP that you have sold.

6) Every day there are many places you can go to get free or cheap items :)
Here is a complete list of the 'Once a Day' stops:

Other places can be visited several times a day:

Wheel of Excitement - costs 100NP to play, once every 2 hours.
Wheel of Mediocrity - costs 50NP to play, once every 40 minutes.
Wheel of Misfortune - costs 100NP to play, once every 2 hours.
The Snowager - when he is asleep.
Healing Springs - once every 60 minutes.
The Money Tree - you have to be VERY fast!!!
The Soup Kitchen - only if you have less than 2000NP.

All the items you get can be sold in your shop :)

7) Playing games is another really good way of earning NP. Go to the Game Room and choose the ones you think look interesting :)

8) Books, Maps, Food, and any other object that disapears once used it a great items to keep stocked. People will always be buying them. Keep an eye out in the News for wars or special occasions too, you never know what will be the next hot items.

9) Another really good way to make money is to buy the newly released items from the 'Main Shops' and then sell them in your shop. There is always a big demand for these items so you can make a bigger profit. Keep checking the 'News' page to see what is new.

10) Have FUN! That is what it is all about :)
