Is anyone having trouble getting the badge. I have used the powerups and nothing.
What you are trying to do is to get the exact amount of the chest. So if it is 200, 600 and 1000 you have to get that exact amount. I did this one by hand as, while the auto is great, it does not always go towards getting those boxes with the exact amount needed and I will bury a 100 card til a 25 I need comes up.
There are 2 other games right now for Thousand Island Solitaire - one for a Pogo Book and one of the MnM badges. In those you need either spins (which is a trip around the board) or the Lifesavers but only the ones that you get at PogoMart (once a trip around the board) are countable.
Good luck and it is easier than it looks.
