Jingle Guide

A week or so before Christmas you will get a letter from Jingle. Jingle is a reindeer wearing a Santa outfit and will show up at 8 PM on Christmas Eve (December 24th). He leaves at 12:00 AM.

Jingle gives you a present when you talk to him but then must hurry on to other houses. If you talk to him again without changing accessories, he will say that he has already given you a present. The present will be either carpet, wallpaper or furniture from the Jingle Set. These pieces sell for 12,240 bells. (Possibly a reference to the day they are given � 12/24 or December 24). The items will appear in your catalog, but you cannot reorder them.

You can �trick� Jingle into giving you more than one present as long as he doesn�t recognize you from your last visit. You do this by changing an accessory item or your hairstyle. Changing clothes will not work, you must change an accessory. Accessory items that work are: Mii Mask, hats, glasses, noses, masks, flowers, umbrellas or the designs in your design inventory used as hats. After you have gone through your whole inventory of items you can start all over again as it seems that Jingle has a fairly short memory and you might be able to trick him again.

Once you have changed accessories, you must find Jingle again. He will change locations after each present is given. He may be found walking around or inside any villager�s house that is dark (no lights on). This is the only time of year you can enter a dark house. He will not be in the lighted houses and he will not be in any other character�s houses that live in your town. Once you find him talk to him again and you should receive another gift. Keep doing this as often as you like to receive multiple presents. You will have to leave the acre he is in each time and then look for him again. (Note: if you are using an umbrella as an accessory, it will not work inside a house as the umbrella is put away when you walk in.)

Jingle will ask you two questions and your present will be determined by your answers. Here are the items and how to answer to get them. Basically for any furniture item, you will want to answer �huge� for the second question.
