    Thank you @EndUser for my Milking it Dairy Corral! This will go great with my 'Country' Sims.
    Thank you also for the volley of in-game gifts we've been sending back and forth :lol:
    I believe I've also had that issue with the downloading video, I very quickly cancelled it out and closed everything out.
    Have a great, blessed day!

    Thank you @renyerookami for presenting me with all the items on my wish list :) :)
  • LoveandhateLoveandhate Posts: 553 Member
    I also have a question for anyone who can help.

    I own most of the Premium Content, thanks to some amazing gifters. I would also like to get the venues and sets that those premium items come with, but I would hate to have them on my Wishlist, and be gifted them when I already own the Premium Item. What is the best way to go about this? With sets it's a little easier, unless that set doesnt qualify for CYS, and then I still feel terrible!
    Have a great, blessed day!

    @Loveandhate Hmm Id add all items from the venue/set and organize the items in lowest to highest price followed by the set. I purposely avoided a few items that were not CYS compatible as I knew eventually Id be rebuying those items when I got to buying the set.
    Also, Some premium items belong to sets that Arent CYS compatible BUT also belong to compilations that Are CYS compatible.
    Honestly a Gifter pays full price on all the items they gift anyhow so its a moot point to me anyways... Did that help at all :p

    Id been looking for something bigger to gift and I like the farm-y stuff so you got the cows :) I too have enjoyed gifting in game so thanks for reciprocating :)

    @scotsim @HSmith2016 @p3dromoises Quite welcome folks,its always a pleasure :D

    I havent been farming points as much lately as Ive been spending some time tracking down eps and SPs.. I picked up Into The Future for $5
    and Im expecting some more stuff soon :D:dizzy: but I did make enough SP to hand out a few things.

    Incidentally I did succeed in snagging Century Manor yesterday So I officially "Own the Store" as of 5/20/16. I began my quest to own the store in earnest on 3/14/16. 9 weeks and 4 days,.. woo!

    Wow @EndUser great job! Congratulations :)

    @HSmith2016 I've never been to a Disney park yet, but we've been following sales for Paris for a while now. I have been to Legoland Billund (Danmark) and that was great. We also plan to visit Moviepark Germany and Europa park (also in Germany) soonish, would be awesome! I love rollercoasters, but I love it most if there's a great theme as I mentioned ;)

    By the way, number 3 in my list, Walibi, is a former Six Flags park. It used to be 50's/60's themed, but they tried to switch themes. The entrance still looks okay but there isn't anything else nicely themed

    Congrats on owning the store @EndUser. Thanks to @debbycanty who mopped up the last three things on my wishlist last night I very nearly own it too... just the sani-sim left which I will buy when it comes up on DD on Friday.

    The ads are still rare for me but at least I'm now getting a few points every day so I can start gifting again once I get a pile.
    Nothing to say for myself... as usual.

    Hi everyone!

    I hope you're all having a great weekend! :smile:

    Good morning, everyone! Hope you're all having a good weekend. :)

    Thank you, @Loveandhate, for the gift of the Mirror! :)

    Thank you, @debbycanty, for knocking out my top 5 and then some! :smiley:

    Thanks to both of you (and others who have helped me) I was able to get the green download on the Jazz Age Living Room. Still have a few items on my list to bring the price down a little more for the Jazz Age Wear set. Buy yay! Getting closer!

    Congratulations, @EndUser, on becoming a Store Owner!! :mrgreen: That is so exciting!

    Updated my top 5.

    thank you @debbycanty for the gifts, you cleaned exactly half of my 60 items wishlist! <3

    congratulations @EndUser, I can only imagine the mount of time you spent watching ads because this was really fast. I bought my EP's and SP's so expensive that I'm jealous, but I did find Monte Vista for only $1 in a promotion a month ago, the shipping was $5 though >.<

    Good Morning!

    Hey @HSmith2016 Have you looked at the Jazz living + jazz wear set? Its CYS eligible so I think it may be cheaper than the standalone jazz wear set.
    And you should also check out the Feb 2011 compilation set as it includes both jazz sets and a futureshock set, Is CYS compatible and may be cheaper still.
    Incidentally I found it very informative when making a store purchase to look at the sets/compilations the item is included in on its purchase page,It can help you plan out your purchases and arrange cascades.

    @p3dromoises There were many late nights and rabid scouring of DD,MMaO machine and cascades. Insomnia FTW? Im happy paying anything less than half of the current going rate of $20 per pack. I got really lucky once I started searching around and I hope to have some things to pass on to others here once Ive completed as much of my collection as I can so the people who will really appreciate it can benefit from my efforts too. Just a matter of time..


    Thanks to all who have congratulated me,you guys are a really great bunch!

    As always anyone who got gifts from me is very welcome,.. If it werent for you Id have no one to gift :p

    Also @EndUser the whole subject confuses me a bit. With those venues *and worlds perhaps* I cannot add any more items to my WL because they don't cascade down. I just feel bad having these venues on my WL because I feel that the person who gifted me the Premium Item would have wasted their SP on me, if I were to eventually buy the venue or world. Is this a normal occurrence, for me to feel bad? :P

    Yes, I checked both the Jazz Living & Jazz Wear Set and the February 2011 Compilation before putting anything more on my wishlist. Both are still over 300 SP, I am just trying to get one or the other down a bit more before buying it. Thanks for looking out for me, though! It's always good to have another set of eyes, in case one of those sets/compilations gets missed. :)

    Thank you for the gifts, @debbycanty and @EndUser ! Thanks to your gifts, I bought the Happily Ever After set on sale for 60 points!

    I will put my top five on hiatus for a while. I have to revise my owned items, simpoints and the Daily Deals list and make sure I'm only placing items on my wishlist if I really need them.

    @Palmarrow You need them all! :D

    Hey everyone, I'm needing some help downloading Nraas mods and backing up my Sims. I know this isn't the group for that, so i made a new discussion hoping to get some help from the experts. If you have any way of helping me, don't be scared!

    I would also like to get everyone's favorite Nraas mod, if you are using some.

    Here is the link to the new discussion!

    If I don't forget I'll check it out tomorrow @Loveandhate, I recently downloaded some mods which I love, but I'm too tired to remember anything now ;)

    The weekend was so tiring, but today I discovered a channel that broadcasts NASCAR races and I love watching it! Only thing was I had to stay up because apparently it's Live. Not too sure about that, but it's 1 AM now, and I want to sleep, so I'm out.

    I have a feeling my post is a big mess of words again lol!

    Thank you @Martje89 for the Real McCoy Dress! I think it's quite pretty, too. :)

    I will check out your link, @Loveandhate. I have some NRaas mods installed and wouldn't play my game without them anymore. Maybe I can help or offer words of encouragement. LOL

    @MocaJava, you have a really good wishlist started! Is there a certain set/compilation you are working on? If so, you can put the top 5 at the top of your list for that, it will bring your price down on the CYS and make it easier to get the whole set once you have a few pieces gifted to you. I hope that helps you narrow it down a bit, but keep the rest on your wishlist! If you like toddler things, there is a really good thread here. It's a really good cascade that will help you get the Animals Abound set, Tip Top Toddlers Collection and the Kids 2010 set.

    Welcome to the gifting directory! :smiley:

    Wow thanks so much @HSmith2016! I did not expect anything that fast! I'll be gifting people back soon, I promise.

    The thing with me with sets, often there's only a few items in it I really like. I guess I'm weird but I rarely see a whole set and think 'I need it all!'. I will look the sets over more thoroughly when I have the time. Anyway for now, I've put a a new item on my top 5.
