In the post, they reminisced on finding the item for the first time when playingCity Folkwith their cousins. “We decided we wanted apples as our native fruit so we spent an entire afternoon resetting over and over to get the apples,” they recounted. But in one of their attempts,they walked into the Able Sisters' shop to see the halo item on display.

“In one of the attempts to get apples, Able Sisters had this halo item I had never seen before in my original city and I FELL IN LOVE with it,” they continued. “Still, we haven’t gotten apples yet. So we had to reset again.” After 10 years of looking for the item in all of their subsequent save files,they finally found it in the sisters' shop in theirNew Horizonssave file.

The halo clothing accessory was introduced duringAnimal Crossing: Wild World, which was released in 2005. It’s been a part of the game ever since, but as there’s no way to control what items show up in the shops day-to-day,it’s not unusual for the OP to have not seen the item since.
