We love helping you get your Turbo Trucking achievements.
When you are ready to go please post below, we can co-ordinate a time and get your through it, as we are globally a diverse bunch weekends are often better, evening Europe / afternoon US time.
Turbo Trucking Hints and Tips
* To prepare, delete orders you don't want, until you have 9 orders on your board you can easily start with. Be aware of duplicates (a product may be asked for in more than 1 order, do you have them all?) * Have your crops ready to harvest and your animals ready to be 'emptied' * Stock up your barn, especially the products that are not easy to find in the DD * You may ask your helpers to hoard specific products. For example, I could hoard buttered popcorn for you, someone else could stock up plain popcorn, etc.

I can't wait to have a go at this one, what barn size do you think is a good starting point? Currently at 675

It has been so long since we did this. We found that prepping the person that was going to go, took the fun for the community, out of it.
We suggested ten of each item, especially the tougher dairy and sugar items. And have jewelry on hand!

I didn't do Turbo Trucking III until level 53, I think. I didn't set out to accomplish it; it just happened that I kept getting orders for things I had plenty of, none of which included candy or jewelry. That was lucky for me.

I hope to try this 10-11 hours from now, if I can fully stock my barn out before then.

Does anyone else has more suggestions?

It's the turbo trucking 3, I'm filling my hubby's barn also. The notice board is almost all green, checked for duplicates. If anyone has a good stock of something, and are willing to help later, could you please list it here. Thankyou

Thanks Jenn, I'll have a better idea on time later today, I can do anywhere between 8 and 11pm uk time. Providing my daughter stays asleep. (Approx 8-11 hours from now)

What you are really trying to say Ann, is, you bucked the system :P Yes, I suppose I did. I didn't start out with the TT III goal in mind that day so didn't ask for help. I just got lucky that I had a good stock and wasn't asked for candy or jewelry I didn't have. It was touch-and-go at the end, but I did it! I was sooo proud of myself. Doesn't take much to make me happy obviously.

Perhaps you could list what you may short on. If you can give a time when you're planning to start, I'll do my best to be here to help.

(Approx 8-11 hours from now) I can be online from 8 -9 pm and again from 9.30 til bed time, UK time. The time in between is my daily animal feeding time (real life animals that is, the hay day herd can wait!)

Change of plan, my husband did it whilst I was at the hospital. I don't know if I should kiss him or throttle him for depriving me.
