First off, Yes i know what they are and what they are used for.

What is the best use of them in terms of monetary gain.

1) Paper, Rock siscors for drinks and lunar fortunes.
2) Lunar fortunes
3) red gift bags.

I notice the red gift bags give 3 each of the party, and sweetness if received essentially making them worth 300g each.

I just want some opinions from others on how they are using them.

Now with my 2 main characters i have like 400 of these things and I just won't to use them wisely.

Thx in advance for help.

Perhaps you should use them to take an english spelling class.

LOL, nice job troll, spelling and grammar on forums on the internet is overrated, and i have to do enough of that every day in my professional career as an mechanically engineer.

Happy, now if someone would like to help.

Rock, paper....if you have lots (>500) of tokens and time to waste playing Hochei; otherwise go for the red gift bags. Fortuneteller is a no no if your going for points; and 0,3% is a verry slim chance if you ask me; but if you feel lucky......

Obviously, you missed his humor.

Anyways, I believe you can cross off the "Buy Lunar Fortunes with Tokens" option on your list, because from what I remember, playing RPS has a better yield. Of course, this means you'll need to spend a lot of time at it, so make the decision there as you like.

Lunar Fortunes will probably have more value until too many people go "OMG, LIEK, IT'S AN AWX!!11!1!" and their prices drop, but I'm not the kind of person to follow prices on festival items that closely anyways.

On the long term, statistically you win 50% of the rock paper scissors games (since a tie is a draw and you get your lunar token back).
That means for every 2 lunar tokens, you win 1 sugary blue drink and 1 fortune.
According to the drop tables on the wiki, you get an item or 100g (instead of some blessing, etc) ~70% of the time from a fortune. Which means every 2 tokens gets 1.7 items playing rock paper scissors (at the expense of a lot of time, took be about 2 hours while watching tv to use 250 earlier today).

The Fortune collector is 1 fortune for every 3 tokens, so 3 tokens for every .7 item.

Red bag is a bit tougher to calculate since you can get MORE lunar tokens (and therefore if you try to calculate the bags you get from them, it just repeats infinitely) but by your figures, 5 tokens for every 3 items.
