-one after flea flicker is: 'Cicada Memories' description is "Ah, cicada shells in the summer. They're not really all that useful, but collecting them does help create summer memories that will last a lifetime." It's for finding a cicada shell and rewards you 1000 Nook Miles.<br /> <br /> -one after fishing tourney is: 'Bug-Off!' description is "What's the summer event to look forward to? That's right... the Bug-Off! Nook Inc. will give you Nook Miles for participating, so by all means, join the fun!" There are 4 spots open so I believe it's rewarded by how many times you participate in Bug-Offs. I got the one sticker that rewarded me with 300 Nook Miles.<br /> <br /> - also, the achievement for: "No More Loan Payments! Repay a loan via the DAC - Nookstop (1000 miles)" is either gone or there is a glitch as I just finished paying my entire home loan earlier today and was not rewarded with any achievements or Nook Miles.
