The Shooting Star
- Walk up to the summit of Mother's Hill
- 6:00 pm to 6:00 am
- Fall 10 of every 5th year
- Sunny weather
This event happens every 5 years on the evening of Fall 10 if the weather is sunny. To ensure that you have favorable weather, save your game on the night of the 8th and then check the weather report on the 9th. If the weather forecast for the 10th predicts a rainy day, reload your save game back to the 8th and try again for sunny weather.
On the night of the 10th, walk up to the summit of Mother's Hill to see a shooting star fall from the sky. It's said that a wish can come true if it is wished upon a falling star, so you will have three wishes to pick from:
- My animals to like me better: Earn +10 FP with each of your animals (meh...)
- My friendships to bloom: Earn +10 FP with each of the Mineral Town residents (psaw...)
- My shipments to earn more: Earn 2x more money for the next day's 5pm shipment (PICK THIS ONE!)
On the 11th, ship eeeverryyything you can! The shipping bin will estimate your daily profit at the normal rate, but everything you place into the shipping bin before Zack's 5:00 pm pick up will result in double profit. Huang will not offer double profit for items you can sell directly to him. Only the items that can be shipped through Zack will count.
Some high-profit item are:
- Mythic Ore: 20,000 G
- Alexandrite, Pink Diamond, and Pirate Treasure: 10,000 G
- Ancient Fossil: 5000 G
- Alpaca Fleece (X): 4000 G
- Wool (X): 3600 G
- Alpaca Wool (P): 3500 G
- Wool (P) and Yarn (X): 3200 G

- Yarn (G): 2000 G

You can spend years saving high-profit items in your farmhouse storage and then ship everything on this special day.
