Rewrite the lead, also putting some of the info into context. I bought a CB on 12 Spring, planting every harvest, and was making thousands by midsummer.

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[:Category:Stores|shop]] consisting of a wagon, pulled by a pig wearing a fez and spectacles. If you try to interact with the pig, it just oinks at you. It appears south of [[The Farm]], in [[Cindersap Forest]], on Fridays and Sundays.

The merchant sells all sorts of random items in limited quantities, but usually at inflated prices that vary from visit to visit. It is possible for the same item to be listed multiple times at different prices. Sometimes prices are deflated (if you are very fortunate) as you can find gold ore for as little as {{price|100}}, whereas its normal price at the [[Blacksmith]] is {{price|400}}, though since you can usually only buy 1 it hardly has an impact. Another example, and almost guaranteed deflation of price are [[Trees|saplings]], as they often appear with a price less than [[Pierre's General Store]] offers them for.

Traveling Cart prices may vary from visit to visit, and it is even possible for the same item to be listed multiple times at different prices. Prices are also usually quite inflated, but you can get lucky. Most furniture items sold at [[Carpenter's Shop|Robin's Shop]] have a chance to be sold at the cart, with prices in the range of {{tprice|furniture}}, sometimes more and sometimes less than regular price. Rarely, you can find gold ore for as little as {{price|100}}, whereas its normal price at the [[Blacksmith]] is {{price|400}}. Since you can usually only buy 1 though, any savings may prove to be less significant than just the item's availability. [[Trees|Saplings]] are often offered for less than the [[Pierre's General Store]] price, a much higher impact. Even by paying {{price|2500}} for a first [[Coffee Bean]] (a two-season crop), if it is acquired early enough, continually planting its produce to increase the number of plants can yield bountiful profits by the end (even the middle) of summer, and beans for planting next year: a fine longer-term investment.
