Ok I am seeing this more and more and more and more. When you get near the 2 billion coin mark, funny things start happening in your cafe... and once you HIT that mark, you are dead. If you see yourself nearing the 2 billion coin mark, stop now, and get rid of coins. Once you are over 2 billion, your coins will disappear and reappear randomly, and you will have no money to cook on stoves! And once you are broke, zero monies, even selling stuff doesn't work - those coins will disappear too. If you don't believe me, go read the z forums - dozens of complaints! THEN - once you are stuck like everyone else - you have to try to get support to fix you up. Because once you go over 2 billion and your cafe is stuck in the lost coin loop, there is NO FIX - support has to manually remove the coins down to a decent level.
GET RID OF THEM before they become a problem! I've spoken to a few friends and wrote up a page on how to do this the most effective way. Don't wait until you are game-locked - stop collecting now and start dumping coins. Stay under 1 billion coins - you don't need that many anyway! I personally stay under 500 mil :)
YIKES!!!! I'm almost at the 2 billion coin limit!!! HELP me use up my coins!!!
Here's what you do!
First, fill your fridge so there's no empty shelves.
Now, start cooking Peach Pie A la Mode. Its expensive and only takes 2-3 min on ultra stove with all bonuses....
Serve it on a counter. NOW.. Click on it. Your options are "Fridge is Full" or "sell to Dale"
Click on "Fridge is full"
A window will pop up with "ok" or "delete" Click Delete, that removes that item from your counters with NO cash to you.
Do the Peach Pie around 10 times a day and soon you will be comfortably broke :)
THEN once you have reached your ideal coin level, delete all new foods you are removing from your counter instead of selling to dale - so your coin level will remain stable.
p.s. if you want to not collect any more coins ever.. then also take the doors off your cafe. no customers means no payment. so you will be in TOTAL control of your coins.
p.p.s if you don't have access to Peach Pie A la Mode, then Baklava works. Either Cook and delete from stoves, or Cook a batch overnight every night.
NOTE: Peach Pie A la Mode was a reward dish for catering Super Summer Fest Prep, and is no longer available to earn. If you did not unlock this dish, then just cook baklava (1 1/2 hours after bonuses) once a day and delete after serving.
(If you feel you are under the coin level you are comfortable with, then "sell to dale" instead of clicking "fridge is full" a few times - to gain coins back)
