Spending for Café Remix Deliveries

It is known that in Café Remix, some Pokémon and their outfits are (and could only be) obtained through the Delivery feature, essentially an implementation of gacha. Many Delivery runs - that is, gacha draws - can be made for free daily, but to get at the more lucrative rewards, one will likely need to spend for extra runs or draws with Golden Acorns, possibly proxying real money if it was used to obtain them. Now that so many rewards are at this "lucrative" point and I've had to experience the spending several times over, I thought I'd make a discussion on that spending and how it should ideally occur.

Recall that each additional immediate Delivery costs 3000 Golden Acorns, or 30000 Golden Acorns for 10 of them plus one free. If there are still lesser rewards to be obtained, the former makes sense, but if only the "lucrative" rewards are left, then the latter makes more sense, as someone would be expected to spend for more Delivery runs due to the reward rarity, and the individual runs themselves would be cheaper - even the supposed "free" one. Of course, one could just spend on the multiple runs all the time, and some savings would still be justified with all the gained rewards from them.

As for the overall grand total of spending for them, at least for a stretch of time, one could very well be advised to stop after, say, 100000 Golden Acorns spent and getting none of the "lucrative" rewards, even when multiple ones are present. That said, if the latter is the case, then one should spend some Golden Acorns anyhow, but perhaps only to a practical limit, given that free Delivery runs are still present. Beyond limits, it seems there's a sense that one may just be wagering too much for them and it might make more sense to purchase an Instant Hire ticket (for a Pokémon) instead to get it over with. 

The notion of "gacha" is always a finicky thing, and that seems to be true even in this Pokémon puzzle game spinoff, especially with the pertinent issue of making the spend for it - as I have myself, prompting the creation of this post and discussion. It may just be that one can keep spending as little as possible, which might still make some "lucrative" rewards unobtainable, or spend a lot to get the rewards while taking a toll on Golden Acorns (and possibly real money) as a whole. Such a finicky state of affairs may just require finicky viewpoints to regard them, as with gacha in general.
