Not that hard.  When you can buy nuggets `n` to a pack (6 for 
example) then if you have schemes for buying 
k,k+1,k+2,...,k+n-1 nuggets, you can create a scheme for 
buying any number of nuggets >= k .  At worst just buy packs 
of `n` until the number left to buy is between k and k+n-1 
inclusive, then follow the scheme for that number.
