On the Re-tail board, some people are selling rare ingame items for 100-200 bells apiece. Otherwise I have no idea how people get so many bells, hahaha.
Apparently the length of the posts helps too. In threads where I'm actually talking to people I get a lot more bells. It's not crazy amounts like that, but they are building them up. I keep selling mine to people for in game bells also so thats another way they get some. That's usually in increments of 100s too
When you first join the site they give you "welcome" tbt bell packages. It's why its easier to have so many bells when you start, but then boom it starts to take awhile.
