I essentially call it the "refund" method. I call it this because the basic jist of it is getting a refund for items that you don't want. To do this, you bang into a wall until the unwanted item falls out. You will get a full refund for this. This way, you can keep your budget up without worrying about pricey items as much. It is, however, quite hard to do because of a few things. The first thing is finding a clear space to ram your katamari into. I usually choose a place I've already gone through that has, if any items left, only cheap items. This way, I don't get screwed over. Another problem with this method is cheap items are lost. You need to retrieve them to get 100 points. The final problem with this method is it takes a lot longer. I do think, despite the small problems, this is a great method to get 100 points on Fancy without developing ulcers. Please discuss, because I want to know how others think of the method. Thanks.

i've heard of doing this before. unfortunately, i have done awesome before and then all of a sudden i hit a gold bar or diamond and i don't get a chance to knock it off because the level is over. so, in theory it works but i don't have the patience to go try again.

yeah. you have to be very careful when doing it. the main thing is to keep everything under control in case you hit a gold bar. when you hit a gold bar, the game still keeps going. it just takes either 33,333 yen or 99,999 yen, depending on how many gold bars there were.

I am going to have to try this.

I think it's a good method. I'll remember it.

99 score at fancys i am so mad right now how much items you need for 100?
i got 1747 :frusty that theory works if you grab something expensive but you will be to late by that time :eek

This is a good method, but I'd say your best weapons on this stage are:
1) Just learning how much everything costs/where it is. Once you get a good idea of where to find the stuff you want to roll up and where not to go, you're going to see massive improvement.
2) Rolling backwards. It's not much, but at least you can kind of see what you're going to roll up before you hit it.
