Since the game's coming out in a week or two (shipping usually takes a while with Harvest Moon games) I thought now would be a good time to post some of the tips I've found while playing the game.
Some of these require you to have the ability to play the apple game with Won or have the ability to sell things to him, which shouldn't take too long if you give him a present every day. These are all from Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town for Girls, so hopefully nothing has changed.
Edit: I should probably mention that this doesn't include crops since a lot of people know about crops and such.
Horse Races
The broach method:
Total Profit: 60,000 G with just the basket; 78,000 G if you fill up your rucksack as well.
You'll need the basket as well as quite a few medals. It's even easier if you enter the horse races since you'll be able to bet on yourself and you'll usually get a ton of medals.
After you have medals buy a whole bunch of broaches and put them in your basket. After it's filled up buy nine broaches and exit the square. Once you put the broaches in your shipping bin go back to the square and get the basket.
Dress Method:
Profit: Approximately 108,000 G
You'll need to be able to sell items to Won to do this and you'll have to have the Dress available at the Horse Race exchange.
It takes a lot of medals, but after the Horse Races you'll need to buy nine Dresses. The next day you can sell them to Won for aproximately 12,000 each.
Won's Apple Game
Tickets:
Profit: Varies
When you play Won's apple game there are ten rounds. If you don't complete all ten rounds, but still win at least one (it could possibly be two, but I think it's one) then you'll get tickets. If you talk to Won while holding a ticket you'll be able to play a small game where three numbers will be randomly chosen. There are a variety of things that you can win, such as records and seeds. It's a great way to get seeds, especially since it costs only 100 G to play the apple game and you'll usually get quite a few bags seeds.
Flowers:
Profit: 80,000 G if you sell the flower; 1,000,000 G if you give them to the Harvest Goddess
If you play the apple game and win ten rounds of it you'll receive a flower from Won. You can either sell it for approximately 80,000 G or you can give it to the Harvest Goddess. If you give her ten you'll get another flower that you can sell for 1,000,000 G.

Van's Favorite Food:
Profit: About 50,000 G
I'm not sure what it's called since I don't have the game, but if you're not planning on getting AnotherWL then you can sell the bottles you get in the mail to Won for about 50,000 G.
That's all I can think of for now. I will post more if I remember them.
