So I have big plans for my island's development....and by big plans I mean approximately 1,000,000 bells worth of construction. And that's without paying off my home loans. So I decided to try that Make A Tarantula Island thing to see if it works and if it's worth it.

But aside from that, I also decided to do something I don't normally do in Animal Crossing. Play the market!!!! Soooo, I need to know: What are the best price tags Timmy and Tommy offer to make the best profit off turnip sales?

I got 690 turnips today. Spent 64,000 on them so my ideal goal is two-fold: 1. Make more then what I spent (if possible) and 2. Find an algorith of sorts...a turnip to sale price ratio to get the idea of how much I should spend on turnips each weekend to maximize profits without risking a loss in money.
 
I've seen turnips go for about 600 bells at most... the upper 400s and 500s is what you want to search for.
 
i bought 100 last week just to try it for the first time for 99bells each and i think my highest was 137 :/ i still sold them but i don't think i'd do it again tbh
 
There was someone in the Discord this morning who’s town was buying them for 495 bells so I would check others as well.
 
I think for it to be profitable, you probably need a network of other players you can visit if their prices reach really high amounts, because I check often how much they go for in my town and I've never seen them above 200+.
 
The highest turnips Ive seen sell for on my island was 435 bells! So your goals are within reach (=

Just keep your eyes peeled for posts about high turnip prices or also in your own shop!!!
 
Definitely wouldn't mind visiting other towns to sell my turnips there if the prices are right (Seeing a lot of that as a recommendation here lol)
 
Check twice a day, both AM and PM.
Stay active on these forums, many people post high prices in thread on TBT so you might be able to sell there if you're lucky, but dont forget to tip!
And if you have one bad week, cut your losses and try again. Entering the stalk market for one week in isolation can be unprofitable, but over multiple weeks, a profit is pretty much guaranteed.

Turnips have always been my main source of income on AC since the gamecube version. I've always found it so profitable and it requires such little effort!

I had a buddy who sold his for 700 a pop. That's probably the high end of the offers.
