At the cost of 3 Tower Bux, the player can permanently upgrade a commercial floor. Each level of upgrade does the following:

Because patterns of similar cost-stock relationships appear throughout all floors of the game, we can compare the financial efficiency of an upgraded floor to a normal one easily...

Missions will grant the player Tower Bux...

The Celebrity brings a large crowd of 50 Bitizens with her into the shop.

Because of the fixed size of the crowd, the maximum bonus earned from the Celebrity is 150 Coins. Unfortunately, this is a very small and non-scaling bonus, making this VIP essentially a throw-away in terms of buying power. However...
