Make sure you are signed into Facebook or candy crush community. Did you reinstall? If so, you may have to take a loss however; message candy crush and ask them if they can replace them (sometimes they will refund if you just bought them) or try to place on your desktop/mobile device which ever one you haven't played on…
I was getting 3 bars each day I loved it. I play a lot but it's hard to earn gold bars so I enjoyed having a chance to save up and buy boosters and extra lives. I hope they add this to the game permanently. Until then I'll continue crushing
When you run out of lives log out of gam . I log out of king account and fb account then log back in after a min. This seems to refresh game and I suddenly have more lives from friends
