I just shot down a balloon and got a flower table from it. Is this normal, or what? I'm confused. :confused:
 
Yes, they do! I get regular furniture and Harvey specials. Sometimes there will be a silver or golden slingshot.

Always shoot down the balloons, you never know what goodie you'll get. ;)
 
It's part of the update, used to be just balloon furniture and the silver and gold slingshots before

Oh, I see now. I used to get just balloon furniture from them, but today they started dropping other items.
 
I think that once you get the whole balloon furniture set it just starts dropping random items since the update.
 
Since the update, i think you can find Welcome Amiibo Items and other normal items. Once, a ballon give me a normal item, not a weird one, but hey... It's free?

Exactly what happens. You have to get the balloon hat, too, though of course cataloging from someone else also speeds it up

I'm guessing, based on what I've seen, you can get items from Harvey's shop and any NPC van, but not from WA characters, outside amiibos like the Zelda or Splatoon ones, or the sanrio characters or minigames. Mostly I've gotten stuff from Harvey's shop but earlier I got a retro sink that's only from Timmy & Tommy's rv
 
It's normal. It came with the update actually, however before the update you could only get balloon items. But in other games prior to new leaf, the balloon set wasn't a thing so you only got normal items that you could get from Nooks.
 
Wait, does cataloging the balloon furniture count? I cataloged the entire set and I think I even shot down every item as well but sometimes I still get balloon furniture.
