Notes

The item you get is now random. After recent testing (2010-Jul-30) with dozens of accounts, the statistic chances are as follow: 40%:20%:40%, ie. the best chance to get is for the first and the last item, the middle one has half as much of a chance. If the item is not giftable, or the Mystery Bag is not gifting that kind of item from the wishlist, the next item will be gifted.

1. Zynga has now been changed the Bag to a single loot item from the wishlist, instead of 5.
2. Stamina refill is 30% of your current used stamina and it wont raise more than your maximum stamina capacity.

Myth

There was a brief period when the type of item to be sent in a Mystery Bag was partially controlled by the gifter, in that a Free Boost, Free Rare or Free Gift was indicated at the top of the gift grid. This can be changed with multiple Refreshes of the page, however, a certain amount of persistence is required to get to the Free Rare item selection. After recent tests (2010-Jul-30), this no more applies and does not matter if you send a mystery bag from Free Gift page or from Free Rare Collection Item page. The chances to get a rare/common/boost are generic and can be from any city. An "allegedly" Free Rare turned out to be a common boost on redemption.

Nota bene: The terms Free Boost, Free Gift, and Free Rare Collection Item identify the three different Free Gift pages available in-game. On the Free Boost page, you can send boosts to you mafia; on the Free Gift page, you can send loot and consumables; and on the Free Rare Collection Item page, you can send New York Collection items.
