Hit rocks! Every day, go around your island and hit all the rocks with a shovel or an axe. Before you start swinging, make sure to dig holes behind you to prevent recoil. You can get up to 8 items from a single rock per day, and these can include iron nuggets, clay, stones, or sometimes even gold nuggets! Just remember, don’t eat fruit before hitting the rocks, or you’ll break them instead of getting the goodies.

Visit mystery islands using Nook Miles Tickets. These islands often have several rocks you can hit for additional resources like iron nuggets. It's a good way to stock up if you've exhausted your island's daily resources.

Honestly, just buy them off someone. There are plenty of trading groups online where people are willing to trade iron nuggets. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do if you really need that shop upgrade or you’re crafting en masse.

Keep hitting those rocks, but don’t overlook the value of patience. Iron nuggets are more of a slow burn in the Animal Crossing economy. Focus on hitting your rocks daily, and you’ll gather enough over time without needing to stress about it. It's a game of patience and enjoying the little achievements each day!
