4a. important things
--------------------
Ancient clue- part of chapter 4-2, serves as Fleep's toilet paper.

Autograph- part of the Piccolo side quest, after Merlumina signs the 
paper, it becomes this.

Card key- part of chapter 5-4, used to get into the processing center.

Cooking discs- here's all 7:

B- Flopside, flip in the bar (on B1) and go all the way down, and look 
in the farthest treasure chest.

G- chapter 5-1, go east of the downtown Crag, and when you reach the 
save point, flip and use Dottie to go into another area. Then, go down 
the pipe, back up the other one, and flip to find the chest.

PU- chapter 7-4, in the area with the Mega star, flip to find a hidden 
pipe. Once you defeat the enemy in there, you'll get it.

R- Flipside, 2nd floor, flip and pass through the gates near Merlon's 
house, and flip back. Go all the way to the left, and up the pipe 
there. Jump up on the ledge, and use Tippi (or Tiptron) to find a 
series of hidden blocks leading up to it.

W- same as cooking disc R, but in Flopside, which means instead of 
going left, you will go right, and use Tippi (or Tiptron) to reveal the 
blocks that allow you to go up the pipe.

Y- Flopside, 1st floor, go in the house right next to the down 
elevator, flip, and you should see it.

#7- I don't know what color it is, but I think it's in one of the 
kitchens, just flip and you might see it. Not sure though!

Crystal ball- used in the Piccolo side quest, you get if from 
Bestovious to give to Merlee.

Diet book- you have to give this to Hagra in chapter 7-2.

Elemental tablets- used in chapter 5-2, look at a walkthrough to find 
out where they are.

Floro sprout- obtained in chapter 5-4 after defeating O'Chunks.

Golden card- found in the Flopside bar (B1), flip and go all the way 
down, it's in the first chest.

Goldfish bowl- you get it from Pook in Flipside, turns into the helmet 
after you release the goldfish.

Helmet- get it from the goldfish bowl after releasing the goldfish.

Keys- I'm not going to mention where every single key in the entire 
game is; some walkthrough should have those.

Orbs- found in chapter 7-4, a walkthrough should tell you where to find 
them.

Paper- you get this from Watchitt in the Piccolo side quest, becomes 
the autograph when Merlumina signs it.

Return pipe- getit from Merlon at the beginning of the game.

Training machine- used in the Piccolo side quest, give it to Merluvlee.

You-know-what- used in the Piccolo side quest, give it to Bestovious.

4b. items not in shops
----------------------
Black, blue, pink, red and yellow apples found on trees in chapter 7-4.

Bone-in cut- dropped randomly by Muths.

Dayzee tear- Crayzee Dayzees drop them randomly.

Dried shroom- you can pay for the cheapest stay at the Flopside Inn, 
and when you're all rested up, flip, and one should be on the table. 
Also, Poison Pokeys and Putrid Piranhas drop then randomly.

Golden leaf- Amazee Dayzees drop them randomly, and you can sometimes 
buy one from the merchant near the Flipside Itty bits.

Inky sauce- Bloopers randomly drop them.

Poison shroom- dropped randomly by Cursyas.

4c. Itty bits shops

Here's how this is going to work:

General location- complete description

Flipside- take the down elevator on the 1st floor of Flipside and 
follow the water path to the right.

Flopside- same as the Flipside one, but you have to flip and go left to 
find the water path.

Dotwood tree- from the bottom of the tree, go all the way to the right.

Downtown of Crag- to the left of where you start.

The Overthere- right before the giant rainbow bridge, use Luigi's high 
jump (hold the down on the d-pad) to jump on top of the hallway thing.

6. special thanks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I couldn't have done this whole thing on my own (believe me, I'm not 
that capable!), so I'm going to mention all the other folks that helped 
me out.
First, there's Alex, for helping with the Itty bits shops.
Gamespot, for giving me some info on the Cooking discs.
And spv999, for their great walkthrough with all the information I 
didn't have.
