I spend some money, yes. I get play pass points to use as well. When I am stuck, but have completed any type of challenge, and get an award, stop running out the time on it. I got UFO for 3 minutes. Played ridiculous hard level once and then got where my standings are. Close it..This week's deal..close it. Bakery Pop-up, close..race pop-up, close. I finally get to the "retry" for the level and guess what, time's up and booster is gone! After playing for an hour, the only reason for all those to show me what I have seen several times already was to run out the time on my booster! Not spending more money. Just don't even give the booster then.
