Every day, a Glowing Spot will appear somewhere on your island, which you can dig up to collect 1,000 Bells.

In addition, you can plant a Money Bag in the glowing hole to make a Money Tree, which will yield three Money Bags equivalent to the planted amount.

Although placing the 1,000 Bell bag found in the hole is fine, it's a lot more profitable to plant huge amounts of Bells to maximize profit from a single Money Tree.

How to Grow Money Trees

Send Them to other Villagers
