How Does Santa’s Stash Work in Grow a Garden
The Santa’s Stash shop is present in the Grow a Garden lobby at all times. Similar to the Safari Harvest Shop, it has a refresh timer that can be decreased by a collective contribution of plants to the Christmas Harvest event. At the start of the update, the refresh timer for the shop is 1 whole hour. But you can decrease it by 15 minutes twice if you make the following contributions:
- By Default: Cooldown is 60 minutes
- 4M Points: Santa’s Shop Cooldown changed to 45 minutes
- 8.2M Points: Santa’s Shop Cooldown changed to 30 minutes
Although items in this shop were unlocked based on milestones reached during the Christmas Harvest event, every new item introduced from now on is automatically unlocked. So, you can purchase them whenever you want, once they are in stock.
