Up to 24 pretzels could be purchased at one time. If you attempted to buy 25 or more, Bert would be astounded and will ask how you could possibly eat that many. There was, however, no limit on how many could be purchased. On 18 October 2010, with the update of the 2010 Hallowe'en event, all Oktoberfest pretzels were removed from the game along with Pretzel Bert.
