Money: ------ If you are low on cash and need a little money in the second map, buy lots of pineapple plants and let em grow then sell the pineapples and repeat. Tips and Tricks: ---------------- A way to get incredible amounts of sand dollars. (I've gotten as high as 15000 in one 15 minute game!) is to play jungle jump. When you get to world 9-14, there is a segment where there is a nonswinging diagonal vine, and a 'flower cannon' right next to it. Aim the flower cannon at the vine, and click to shoot. You hit the vine and you get the 15 points for successfully hitting another jump. That's not all though! If you click right away again, you land back into the cannon and get 100 points plus the 15 for a quick jump. And you can do this forever, building up a higher and higher score. It's right near the end too, and if you've gotten this far into the game, you obviously aren't terrible at it, so you can more than likely complete the whole three jumps more to win.
