Shop

Do you need a new watering can? Does your new piñata need a new home to stay out of the rain. Head to the village were many shops are available for you to buy, sell, and trade. All of the shops exist in a local village on Piñata Island.

The in-game shops are where you can trade in your piñata for currency to buy bigger and better things for your garden including seeds and plants. You can also buy costumes and accessories for your pinata, upgrade your tools, hire helpers for your garden, or even buy pets, such as cats or dogs.

You’ll be able to buy new objects both with your chocolate coins in game, and also with Microsoft Points in the Xbox Live Marketplace.

Shops include Arfur's Inn, Bart's Exchange, Doc Patchingo, Costolot's General Store, Gretchen Fetchem's, Ivor Bargain, Miss Petula's Paper Pets, Fanny Franker's Post Office, and Willy Builder's.

Arfur's Inn

Helpers are available for hire at Arfur's Inn. You can hire up to five helpers to assist you in your garden. If you need more help with one specific task, such as weeding, you can hire multiple Weedlings, and even rename them (which unlocks an achievement).

Bart's Exchange

The tinkerer at Bart's Exchange can transform one item into another for you.

Costolot's General Store

Costolot's General Store sells seeds, produce, fertilizer, candy, fencing, and other important items for your garden. You can also sell unwanted items to Costalot for chocolate coins. After selling to her once, you will be able to sell items to her more quickly by simply pressing B during normal gameplay.

Doc Patchingo

Doc Patchingo is the village pinata doctor, on call 24 hours a day. After visiting his shop once, you will be able to call Doc to your garden by selecting a sick pinata and pressing the A button.

Fanny Franker's Post Office

Fanny's Post Office is where you can send piñatas, money, seeds, and garden items from your garden to a friend's garden via Xbox Live. Also you come here to recieve packages from friends.

Gretchen Fetchem

Gretchen is a hunter that can track down lost strays, or fetch a wild version of any species that you have seen before. So even if you have lost (or traded away) all pinatas of a particular species, you can still get another by paying the hunter to fetch it for you.

Miss Petula's Paper Pets

Miss Petula sells accessories for your pinatas, as well as domestic pinatas such as cats, dogs, and chickens. Paper Pets is also a place to send accessories to your friends.

Willy Builder

Willy is available to build new houses for your pinata residents, or other structures, such as the Shearing shed.
