**NOTE:
I might rewrite this forum in the future to be clearer. I will keep the old forum intact at the bottom as a spoiler, but for clarification purposes I really think I could explain better than this!

Extremely new to posting on the forums, so I hope I've done everything correctly and that this IS actually a new topic... here goes!

My suggestion(s) are as follows:
- item bundles (bundles that are reserved for items, non-tradable/non-giftable)
- recipe bundles (bundles that follow a selected crafting recipe)

My main problem is that burying every item I want to store only seems to create a second messy hoard for me. I usually only bury applicators and less-common items that I don't want to waste on amusement, so having a second place to prevent myself from using up materials I want to craft with would really help me (and others) stay organized. Goodie bags could work, but then I wouldn't know what's in each of them unless I name them accordingly (which is a pain), and even if I could, they only hold 10 items at a time.

So, perhaps there could be spot underneath the currency bundles in the "bundles" tab where we could create and edit a bundle of items to help neatly save for certain crafting recipes? I personally like saving up crafting items when they're on their last use, but when I collect enough 1-use items, I then have to unbury them, and they're mixed in with all of my full-use items again (and sadly, Monkey Business doesn't let me know which items are being used for the recipes, so I end up crafting with full-use items...).

But this suggestion doesn't really solve the whole "mixed in with full-use items" issue, does it? So perhaps we could have recipe-based bundles, where you could fill out selected recipes and craft straight from the bundle itself.

Players could select the recipe from Monkey Business and choose a "create recipe bundle" option that creates a recipe bundle under the "bundles" tab (or even somewhere in Monkey Business, like an "in-progress recipes" tab) where you could store the items required and work towards completing the recipe seperately from their buried valuables. Once all requirements are met, a "Craft!" button could appear at the bottom, completing the recipie and giving the result.

These suggestions are rough ideas, of course, but I'd love to see what other players think about it! Maybe there are some issues my suggestions don't address; if that's the case, please do add on!

Edit: I found a similar post created by Zero #40646 requesting item bundles, thought I'd mention it since I feel I added more to their initial concept <3
