Been going through and getting all the Bonus SimPoints the store would let me, got all the cheap stuff from my wishlist and a bunch of other stuff I came across and liked, now everything that is left in my wishlist(17 items/sets/venues/worlds) is 1900~4307. At base prices/sale prices I'd need 46085 more SimPoints. Hoping to get some good deals via the DD and "Complete your Set" but since a bunch are worlds, venues, and expansions they don't always apply.
Hi, @Cadh20000. I just took a look at your wishlist and, if I may make a suggestion, take one of the sets you're trying to CYS and break it into the individual items so that those of us that own the store can help you get there faster. Please don't say you don't want us wasting our simpoints. I'm full up on them and need to start spending

Dunno if this will brighten anyone's day, but I just worked out that (if my calculations are correct and everything stays as is) the Sunlit Tides DD next comes due on Christmas Day
(Well, it does here in Oz... Might be more Christmas Eve for most folks.)
@AuraKnight according to the spreadsheet Sunlit Tides will be up on December 26th at 3:54am here in Australia. Most other places get it on Christmas day.
As of April 24th 2015 I joined the own the store club. Thank you to those who helped in my journey. DD spreadsheet
Howdy! Just wanted to let everyone know I still exist. Sorry I was gone so long. I am going to try to be better about helping post the upcoming deals and caring for the spreadsheet. I've missed you all!

Thanks to a lot of amazing sim friends I have owned the store for a while now. If you'd like to help out a really good friend of mine who just started playing the game, here is his wishlist. Thanks!
@trithone - Samantha! I was just thinking about you. I've got a music question for you. What's the difference between a 'Philharmonic' and a 'Sinfonia' Orchestra?

So I've read on other threads (and, I think, this one too) about items from the store going missing in the game. This just happened to me for the first time... I would guess I'm maybe 70% of the way to owning the store. I'm just wondering if it started happening to you guys after a certain point or if this is something totally random. In my case, I loaded the game after installing the now and then manor (just got today off of DD!) and got that blurb about some items being missing and replaced with others and, then, when I went to my launcher the missing items were all there but not installed any longer. I just reinstalled them and everything is back to normal -- I'm not sure if this is even what others are describing when they say store items have gone missing from their games. Just curious if anyone else has had this happen. I have a newer laptop so I've been running the game with everything installed (maybe that's a problem after a point?).

I broke them all up as much as I could. Started out organizing them but got tired of that and quit part way through. List is WAY longer than it was now! Biggest problem with a lot of them is the items(mainly build parts and a few furnishings for businesses) I want are apparently set-exclusives that the link from the set gives a "Error 404 - page not found" and a search of the store using the actual search bar either finds no results or a few with similar names. Otherwise it would be even bigger!

Take a look at Ciane's Reinstall Store Stuff: No repeats or disappearing thread. Her method of installing store content makes it so things don't uninstall themselves anymore. It's quite a bit to digest at first, but she has put quite a bit of work into making it easy to understand.
@angeljess26 thanks for the correction. I didn't have access to the sheet at the time and I must have miscalculated. I think I did get the 4am time, not sure how I was out by a day
@AuraKnight no problem didn't want any one to be tryting to find it on the wrong day in the holidays, when we're all so busy.
@trithone good to see you again

@scillakees Thanks for the link! I probably came across that thread back when it didn't apply to me and I definitely never bothered to read into it and discover that someone solved the problem. Thanks again!
On another note, my ad points have stopped adding to my total again :-/ I hope it's just a temporary thing this time and not several days worth of this again.
Ugh, stupid clock change from Daylight Saving back to Standard messed me up. I fell asleep last night and missed Technophobe set. So I have to wait till November 23 for it to come back around. That's not too bad, but it pushes May 2012 set from November 10 to January 27! *sigh* Although, it truly isn't a big deal. It isn't like I'm dying to use Kingdom of Cambodia in my next build. There are some interesting pieces, but nothing that knocks me over.
EDIT: OMG the site edited "st upid clock" to "plum clock." I think the filtering has gone too far.

Here is the list for the current deal and the upcoming deals for the next 24ish hours.
While this list of deals has no "green" - best price on the DD" - deals, it does include many deals for single items which appear only once on this rotation. Except for Deal 403, which is only a 1 sp saving, the other white deals are worth purchasing to lower your CYS of the sets that the items are included in.
Even if a deal is a "yellow" or "red" deal, it should not be ignored. Your CYS may be low enough to have the green download button enabled so that you can get the rest of the set for free.

Haha - I had to look it up because I didn't know either. Basically, just the name. Philharmonics (which translated just means "music lovers") started popping up in big cities where there might be more than one symphony orchestra or society of orchestra supporters. It's just a way of being able to tell which is which - such as having both a "Boston Symphony Orchestra" and a "Boston Philharmonic Orchestra." Other than that, both organizations are pretty much identical insofar as the numbers of different musicians and the types of music they play.

Thanks, Samantha ( @trithone ). My oldest granddaughter ( 17 yrs old ) plays violin in her high school Philharmonic Orchestra. But they also have a Sinfonia Orchestra. When we went to her concert at the end of October, they each played 1/2 the concert and they each were all strings so I was a bit confused. And then I forgot to ask her the difference after the concert

In that case it is possible that one is higher level than the other. Schools do that sometimes - split the students according to level or grade. I played violin in my younger years. The high school's "string ensemble" was all strings, but for the lower-level students. The "orchestra" was for higher-level students and did more competitions and concerts. They have to come up with different names for the ensembles, so that might be the difference between their Sinfonia and their Philharmonic.

Drats! I missed Daily Deals # 409, the Goddess Tank, and # 410, the Bandana hair, this morning. And I needed the latter to lower my CYS for the Quaint Cottage Collection! I dismissed my alarm one time, then rolled over on top of my phone and muffled the following alarms. Did everyone else get what they were waiting for today?
Now I'm waiting to take advantage of Daily Deals # 420, 8-Bits of Screaming Awesomeness, and # 428, Glitter and Glam Bedroom, later today. And I'm really hoping to get my CYS low enough on that set to have enough SimPoints left over to be able to pick up # 455, The Duke of Bows Renaissance Faire, on Nov. 12th! As I shared on another thread, I'm really looking forward to getting it because as a kid I was in orchestra and I've always been interested in archery! But without spending anything, at this point, I'm still 108 points shy of being able to afford it. Here's to hoping I can farm enough ads by then!
As anxious as I am for Daily Deal #455, I was even more anxious for the Lullabies and Nursery Rhymes and the PC content that accompanied it. I was so eager for it, in fact, that I paid 1510 SimPoints to have it in my game! Ahem ... that was before I discovered this thread and learned about the Rotation, CYS, and Cascades.

While I know owning the Store is kind of a badge of honor, @Me1620, @angeljess, and @ajaxpost, I kind of wish you didn't own it. That's because your help has been invaluable, and I want so badly to gift you guys something! Alas, you have no Wishlists. So now I'm trying to brainstorm how else I can thank you for all you do!

Oops! Oh, I think quite a few of us have missed a deal because of being too sleepy, getting the time wrong, not being fast enough clicking the Buy button, Internet going down at precisely the wrong time ... oh, the ways we have found to frustrate our desires! But, then, we would come here, share our tales of missed deals and be heartened by all the virtual hugs from our DD friends.
Oh, and cookies too!
Good luck with your plans for the up-coming deals.

That is so very kind of you to say. To be honest, and I think Jodi and Jess will agree, knowing that we have been able to help even one fellow Simmer is reward enough. I found this quote which pretty much describes why I love to share what knowledge I have “Giving feels fantastic and for there to be a Giver, there must be a Receiver, so allowing yourself to receive is an act of love.”
There was a wonderful thread on the Gifting forum last year that found a way to return gifts to those without wishlists: The Gift of Creation Game. Unfortunately the host @NagyGina who was very proactive in encouraging participation left the forum and it kind of run out of steam
That said, just keep telling is of your successes (and near misses!) so that we can share in your excitement.

Haha - I had to look it up because I didn't know either. Basically, just the name. Philharmonics (which translated just means "music lovers") started popping up in big cities where there might be more than one symphony orchestra or society of orchestra supporters.

Thanks to a lot of amazing sim friends I have owned the store for a while now. If you'd like to help out a really good friend of mine who just started playing the game, here is his wishlist. Thanks!
Now I'm waiting to take advantage of Daily Deals # 420, 8-Bits of Screaming Awesomeness, and # 428, Glitter and Glam Bedroom, later today. And I'm really hoping to get my CYS low enough on that set to have enough SimPoints left over to be able to pick up # 455, The Duke of Bows Renaissance Faire, on Nov. 12th! As I shared on another thread, I'm really looking forward to getting it because as a kid I was in orchestra and I've always been interested in archery! But without spending anything, at this point, I'm still 108 points shy of being able to afford it. Here's to hoping I can farm enough ads by then!
As anxious as I am for Daily Deal #455, I was even more anxious for the Lullabies and Nursery Rhymes and the PC content that accompanied it. I was so eager for it, in fact, that I paid 1510 SimPoints to have it in my game!
Whoops!

Good luck with your plans for the up-coming deals.
That is so very kind of you to say. To be honest, and I think Jodi and Jess will agree, knowing that we have been able to help even one fellow Simmer is reward enough. I found this quote which pretty much describes why I love to share what knowledge I have “Giving feels fantastic and for there to be a Giver, there must be a Receiver, so allowing yourself to receive is an act of love.”
There was a wonderful thread on the Gifting forum last year that found a way to return gifts to those without wishlists: The Gift of Creation Game. Unfortunately the host @NagyGina who was very proactive in encouraging participation left the forum and it kind of run out of steam
That said, just keep telling is of your successes (and near misses!) so that we can share in your excitement.
