Your best/favrite ways to make bells

I like catching bugs and sharks on the island. Its fun to go at night and I quite enjoy it!:)
 
Selling perfect fruit in a town that doesn't have your native fruit. Bug hunting on the island and selling turnips.
 
The best way to make bells is the island at night for sure but my favorite way... Hmm, well I really like watching and listening to things when I play, but those times I don't I have the time to fish and bug catch! It lets me enjoy the game, see the progress of my towns, and make bells all at once! Sure it can be stressful but it can really bring you back to the roots of Animal Crossing and appreciate the game for what it is.
 
My favorite way to make bells in the game is to catch those rare bugs that appear from the palm trees of the island at night. The golden stag is the best bug to catch, it's worth a lot of bells.
 
My best and fav way to make bells is selling turnips :) well that's if I do find good turnip prices
 
My favourite way of making Bells is selling perfect fruit. It's a lot of work, but it really is worth it. I also love making Bells whenever I have a lazy villager camping in my town, because you can make tonnes of Bells from them.
 
Island method (cause all the shops and stuff are closed at night, and I'm a night owl) mostly.
 
Am I the only one who don't like going to the island to catch bugs? I think it's so boring xD I like to gather perfect fruit and sell them in my friends town ^v^ I also sell fossils, hit the money rock and the ore rock everyday. If I see a shark by the beach, I'll catch them as well! I also sell all the stuff the villagers gifts me and so on
 
i usually make most of mine on the island, whether that means catching beetles and sharks or going on tours, stocking up on island items, and selling them to folks on the forums.
the rest is made with perfect fruit, fossils, the money rock, etc.
 
I love going to the island because it's relaxing (and more relaxing with my music). I also sell anything I get (fossils, gifts, rewards, etc) for a few extra bells.
 
To start, I use the money rock and selling ores, as well as planting as many perfect fruit trees as I can in the first couple of weeks. Then once I can get to the island, I generally bug/shark catch.

Also, I love selling things on TBT or using other people's retail when turnip prices are high or my perfect fruit is on special in their town... it's a nice way to socialise as well as make money :)
 
Night time beetle catching on the island. I can fill my pocket/basket with only the most expensive bugs in a pretty short time so I can go multiple times in a night and make a lot of money. It's about 2-400k a trip usually. And since I go multiple times in a night, it's really easy to rack up the bells. Of course if you have some TBT on here and want a little extra there are a lot of people who sell IGB for TBT.=]
 
turnips 100%. a few days ago i made 10 million from buying and selling turnips for a few hours. I can't believe i used to spend days and days fishing and catching bugs just for 500k or something, when it's so quick and easy to get money with turnips (specially if you have a friend or something, then it's super easy, or using the turnip prices thread here). I make money other ways too but when i want a massive amount of money pretty quickly and easily, it's turnips.

If you find a really good turnip price, you can buy them for around 100 and sell them for around 500, so for a full pocket of turnips it's costs 160,000 and sells for 800,000, that's a profit of 640,000 for just one pocket of turnips! If you're really ambitious and fill up your whole locker with turnips, you can make an overall profit of around 9,000,000.

I sell perfect fruits. I have two towns and I can travel between them, I had lots of perfect fruit trees and I harvested them until I became a millionaire! I stopped though because it annoyed me to do it several times a week and I have enough money.
 
My favorite way to make bells is selling turnips. It is most effective with the least work for you but the risk is high to lose your bells if you don't find someone with a good turnip prices. No risk no fun :D
And it's only work in a big community or if you have many friends who play Ac.

The bug catching method is the best and easy way if you play alone. It's fun too.
I really like to trade perfect fruits or to sell normal fruits. But you need a loot of fruit trees and it's takes time to get bells and a lot of work too. But i like it anyway and I'm probably the only one who tries to make millions of bells with normal fruits. lol
