Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies


 * Not to be confused with Crazy Dave's Car.

Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies is Crazy Dave's shop and is located in the trunk of his car. The player gains access after finding his Car Key at the end of level 3-4. On iOS versions, the Car Key is given to the player by Crazy Dave after More Ways to Play is unlocked on level 2-2. Once in every level set (fog and roof) afterwards, new merchandise will be added. The player can purchase more seed slots, plant upgrades, new defenses for the pool and the roof, Zen Garden items, upgrades, various House Blueprints (Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network only), and Mini-game Packs (iOS only).

In the Xbox Live Arcade, and PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita version, Crazy Dave will give the player "CRAAZY DEALS that you'd have to be dead to turn down!". It is unclear what these deals actually are, as no one has confirmed getting one yet. When obtained, they might show up in the player's Mail.

Extra Seed Slots
These can be purchased at any time, as soon as the previous one has been purchased. They can also be purchased before the shop is unlocked, as whenever the player has enough money for the next one at the end of a level, Crazy Dave will appear and give him or her the choice to purchase it.

Trivia

 * Somehow, all of the wares sold can fit in Crazy Dave's trunk.
 * If you idle at Crazy Dave's shop, he will say one of the following:
 * "I eat food off the floor!"
 * "ACT NOW! I'M CRRRRRAAAZY!
 * "All Twiddydinkies are priced to move!"
 * "Our prices are unbelievable!"
 * In the trunk of Crazy Dave's car, the title War and Peas can be seen, an allusion to War and Peace, a Russian novel by Leo Tolstoy.Warandpeas.png
 * In the Lawn Strings, ZomBotany Mini-games are labelled 'War and Peas'.
 * In the iPad version, the book sports a peculiar orange scribble.
 * In the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, Crazy Dave's license plate displays various lines instead of "Menu", "Main Menu", and "Go Back". Some lines include MEAMDAV ("Me am Dave"), SODALID ("Soda Lid"), VRM VRM ("Vroom Vroom"), SMTNFNY ("Something Funny"), UN EMPLD (Unemployed), MAD4GRVY ("Mad for Gravy"), FLOR FUD ("Floor food"), and RDWARER ("Road Warrior").
 * After buying a level five Blueprint from Crazy Dave, the Blueprint will say "Sold Out", but the price will increase by $8,000. It is unclear if PopCap intends to bring even higher tier Blueprints to the game later in the form of an update or downloadable content (DLC), or if the system is just set to add $8,000 each time. This also happens with seed packets on versions that have only nine seed slots. After the player buys the ninth seed slot, the price will bump up to $80,000.
 * In Crazy Dave's Car Trunk, a figure of Lex, the protagonist of Bookworm, another game by PopCap, can be seen. Lexbookworm.png
 * The background of the Shop changes depending on the player's level progress in Adventure Mode. If he or she is playing Day, Pool, or Roof levels, the background will turn into a day background, and when he or she plays Night, Fog, or Night Roof levels, the background will turn into a night background.
 * There are Rollerblades in his trunk for some reason. Also, in the iPad version, there is a brain in his trunk as well.
 * On the iPhone and iPod Touch, the shop is obtained when More Ways To Play is unlocked on level 2-2 so the player can buy Mini-games. Other things do not appear until the Bacon is obtained on level 3-4.
 * In the PC trial version, the full version of the game is an item in the shop.
 * Additionally, the Twin Sunflower can only be bought in the full version.
 * It is odd how although everyday mundane objects (Seed Packets, Pool Cleaners, and Roof Cleaners) are overpriced in the shop, but expensive wares (House Blueprints and House Changing) are relatively cheap.
 * The Imitater is the only plant sold in Crazy Dave`s Twiddydinkles that is not an upgrade plant.
