Upgrades and automation
Most upgrade prices were never published. Three of them are painted on an official shop screenshot from a day-54 save: Auto Sticker Scraper $222.50, Auto Thread & Needle $222.50, and Fairy Power $450.00. Everything else in the table has a blank price on purpose.
Shop table
Dollar signs in this table denote in-game currency shown by the shop, not real-money purchases. Blank unlock cells mean the public source does not state a prerequisite.

Suggested buying order
My suggested priority is table space, followed by repetitive manual chores, then transport helpers. This is editorial advice rather than an official unlock route. v0.10 describes table capacity from one to three garments; the automatic scraper and needle handle sticker removal and repairs. Their purchase prerequisites and most prices are unpublished.
Fairies, added in v0.11, carry clothes from station to station. Players complained they picked up clothes that were still dirty, and v0.16 says that case is fixed. The same patch raises base fairy speed by 50% and the base speed of every automatic tool by 50%. Fairy Power at $450 is a separate shop item whose blurb says fairies fly twice as fast. I am not adding those two bonuses together into one percentage.
The v0.16 Automation app is the off switch. If a helper is making a mess, the documented control is that app, not a config file. Cosmetics with hidden effects start in v0.13: the tip jar and the coffee machine. No numbers are attached. Wallpaper names visible on another screenshot — Normal, Bamboo, Winter Festive, Purple, Regal Green, Regal Orange, Stripes Blue, Stripes Pink, Workshop Green — are cosmetic, and I have no prices for them.
The launch note’s “60+ shop items” is a count without a catalog. I am not padding this table to 60. Stain tools that feed these upgrades are on the stains page.
Questions
What should I buy first?
A suggested priority is table capacity, repetitive chores, then fairies; the notes do not prescribe a best order. Only three dollar prices are visible, all on one screenshot, so I am not ranking the unpriced tools by cost.
Can I turn fairies off?
v0.16 adds an Automation app that toggles automated tools. That is the control the patch notes describe.
