Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies

​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 Keys at the end of level 3-4. 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, and various House Blueprints.

In the Xbox Live Arcade version, Crazy Dave will give you "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 will show up in your 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/her the choice to purchase it.

Trivia

 * If you stay long at Crazy Dave's Shop without doing anything, he might say any of the following:
 * "I eat food off the floor!"
 * "ACT NOW! I'M CRAZYYYYY!!!
 * "All Twiddydinkies are priced to move!"
 * "Our prices are unbelievable!"
 * They really are. Who would sell 3 rakes for $200 or gloves for $1,000?
 * In the trunk of Crazy Dave's car, the title War and Peas can be seen, a reference to War and Peace, a Russian novel by Leo Tolstoy.Warandpeas.png
 * It's also a reference to ZomBotany, as in the Lawn Strings, ZomBotany mini-games are labelled 'War and Peas'.
 * In the Xbox 360 Version of the game, Crazy Dave's License Plate says 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), and MAD4GRVY (Mad for Gravy).
 * The Xbox 360 Version also includes another section in his car, devoted to selling Blueprints to various houses.
 * After buying a Level 5 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 DLC, or if the system is just set to add $8,000 each time.
 * A figure of Lex was seen also in the car trunk, which is the main protagonist of Bookworm, another game by PopCap. Lexbookworm.png
 * It is unknown why Crazy Dave is not invaded by zombies and that only you are.
 * The Zombies might have given up trying to invade due to his Zombie Zapping prowess.
 * The Zombies may not like crazy people who eat food off the floor, would give $1,000 each for a strip of bacon and taco each, and have a shop in the trunk of their car.
 * Maybe the Zombies think that it is not worth invading Crazy Dave's house, because his brain wouldn't be very filling.
 * The item that costs the most is the upgrade to 10 seed slots which costs $80,000.
 * It is unknown how there can be multiple sections of the store in a single trunk.
 * Perhaps in game to keep it organized but in reality(to them) it's all over the place.
 * The background of the Shop changes depending on your Level progress. If you are playing day levels, the background will turn into a day background, and when you play night levels, the background will turn into a night background.
 * In the iDevice and DS versions of Plants Vs. Zombies, the 10th seed slot is unavailable.
 * There are Rollerblades in his trunk for some reason.
 * On the iPhone and iPod Touch, the shop is obtained immediately after the night levels are completed so you can buy Mini-Games. Other things do not appear until the Bacon is obtained on level 3-4.
 * It is unknown whether the Bacon is anything but a waste of cash. When it is bought for $500 all that happens is he makes a weird face at you and says "MMMMMM DELICIOUS!" (This is only on the iPad version.)
 * The new page 5 in the iPhone version if you update it and enjoy buying presents and Zombotany minigame!
 * In the PC trial version, there is "Plants vs. Zombies Full Version" item in the shop.
