I had one spin plant that disappeared a few days into this event - so I just bought a new one! They're free. Hope that works for you.

In the last 2 quests, it was a 1-1 cost for the get requirements for SP to CC, and I would have only needed 13 SPs, which I was able to generate using the LP spin plant to SP. Now, there is no way I could get up to that many SP's to cover the missing CC.
Yes, the exchange rate seems MUCH higher for this event.
It looks like they adjusted the SP/CC exchange rate. It's back to being 1:1 in my second game now. This afternoon it would have cost me well over a thousand SPs to make up the remaining SP for just one location but now it is only 77SPs.
It will cost 77SPs to make up the 77CCs
I have been taking a sort of lackadaisical approach to the repeat in my second game. My only goal was to unlock the passion fruit and I did that this morning. Now that I have that I would like to build all the areas that require bananas (one more to go) and unlock the last two areas so it's a little easier for the next time. I'm so glad to not have to deal with the farce of collecting in my main game.

Thank you for the suggestion...it worked!

Yeah, I had two coin spin plots that turned into regular garden plots a couple days ago. Fortunately, they were still in the events tab of the home store, so I got a couple more. They haven't turned into normal ones, so there must have been some weird glitch.

Glad to see that the exorbitant cost seems to have been unintended. That or else they got a lot of complaints.
For some reason, I've been screaming along on this. I did spend extra SP in the beginning to harvest all the bonuses from my bananas and dragon fruit to get to the pineapple and passion fruit. At this moment, I only have about 12K passion fruit left to collect and about 500 coins. Still collecting the other fruits to help community progress, but this event has been much easier for me to complete than the French Romance event (I had the highest resource requirements).
Just completed my tropical island event. It converted my surplus resources into simoleans just like french chateau event. I wish they converted it to SP then it would have been awesome!
I'm glad they adjusted the CC/SP factor! I got a bit luckier on the spin plant today than usual - nothing near the 125 cc of course, but a few 8,12 & 20 help out just enough! I'm still plugging along, but I think I will be able to get all of the prizes except for the volleyball game. I decided to skip that prize and use the bananas for spins instead. I'll get that one next time it comes around.
I'm confused about the coast wedding venue, it's just a decoration basically? I kind of thought it was a big deal because you'd be able to marry your sims there, but you can only officiate the wedding or watch the wedding, so basically you put sims in the chairs for 30 minutes to watch one sim talk to him/herself for 5 minutes and no one can get married, it's really weird and I wish I'd saved those resources for the bar instead... there's nothing you can do with the wedding venue apparently?
