You can pay Clint to break open [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]] for you.  You'll find [[Minerals#Gems|Gems]] and [[Minerals#Geode Minerals|Minerals]] within, as well as common resources like [[Stone]], [[Clay]], and [[Coal]].

Clint can break open [[Minerals#Geodes|geodes]] for {{price|25}}.  [[Minerals#Gems|Gems]] and [[Minerals#Geode Minerals|Minerals]] can be found within, as well as common resources like [[Stone]], [[Clay]], and [[Coal]].

If the sell price of the item inside the geode is {{price|75}} or less, you will hear a "clink" sound when it is broken open.  Otherwise, you will hear a short melody, and the item will sparkle.

[[Artifact Trove]]s can be purchased from the [[Desert Trader]] for 5 [[Omni Geode]]s. Clint will break these open like a geode, but instead of [[minerals]] you'll find [[Artifacts|artifact]]s or treasures inside.

*During year 1, it's cheaper to buy wood from the [[Carpenter's Shop]] and use a [[Charcoal Kiln]] to make your own [[coal]] than it is to buy coal from the Blacksmith's.  Starting in year 2, the price of [[wood]] increases from {{price|10}} to {{price|50}}, so it is cheaper to purchase coal.

*In order to avoid missing a day of watering, water your crops then start the upgrade to your Watering Can when the weather report indicates rain the next day. Your plants will be watered that day by yourself, the following day by the rain, and you can pick up the can the day after that. You can also upgrade your watering can near the end of a season, if you know you have nothing in the ground that will bear fruit.

*At [[Skills#Mining|Mining Skill]] 7, it is cheaper to purchase [[Iron Ore]], smelt [[Iron Bar]]s, and use the Transmute (Au) recipe to create [[Gold Bar]]s than it is to purchase [[Gold Ore]] and smelt it into Gold Bars.  This also cuts the smelting time from 5h to 2h per [[Furnace]]. This saves you {{price|350}} per Gold Bar in the first year and {{price|1000}} per Gold Bar in year 2+.

Although the door to the Blacksmith locks at 4pm, as long as you are inside the building you can still interact with the counter after 4pm to make purchases, upgrade tools etc., even after Clint walks away from the counter at 5pm.
