    While looking for some ads, I`ve just got this:

    Ad_screen_zpsdde3bbdb.jpg

    After refreshing, I`ve got the black window with the endlessly spinning wheel.

    Earlier this morning, I`ve got at least ten ads that told me I should visit Great Britain
    Have a nice day!

    I got lots of Great Britain ads as well, @Tahera. Apparently we are invited. ;) I also got that refresh thing sometimes, but the ad usually works after I refresh. Maybe it was a broken one any way. I get those a lot too.

    I was able to get Frontier Finds for 35 points, which finished off the bit I had left of April 2011 for free. Anyone else who bought it should check it too!

    If I can get a cheap flight to London, I`m thinking about a gift card for a weekend trip to London to give it as a gift to my hubby. The ads are working ;)

    EDIT: Congrats at the great deal. @frozenorangejuic
    The set is selling well / good
    Have a nice day!

    happy birthday, @simgeek79! i hope it's a great one, even though you'll probably be tired later... at least it was worth it to stay up, though, since you got frontier! maybe your birthday mojo inspired the dd to finally offer it, and at a good discount!

    i got it too, for just 65 points, and then i got a green download on Charmingly Simple, which got me 2 free items. I'm up to 41% on the April 2011 Compilation, too!

    Well, I was saving up to gift my best friend Midnight Hollow Gold, and I finally saved up enough, so I got it and gifted it to her! Now I'm wiped out of simpoints. :) Have to hunt for more ads, so I can save up more points again! It was fun gifting that to her, so I think I want to save up for another world, too. :)

    @simgeek79 - Happy birthday!

    I hope you have a good one!

    @Pixieydust - do you still need advice for Nraas mods? I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I can probably help a little.

    Good morning (or goodnight depending on where you are) - I am quite tired this morning but feeling very blessed. My children and hubby all did sweet things, my friends left gifts on the door step or sent texts from afar and my wonderful simming friends all took the time to wish me a happy birthday and send wonderful gifts my way. Thank you so much to @Tahera, @Me1620, @Pugslover4, @Frozenorangejuic, @Radlee and @MiaSkywalker <3

    Happy for all of you who also got Frontier Finds, definitely a great discount and thank you Radlee and Frozenorangejuic for the tips on the two other sets/compilations it is a part of. I will definitely check those out when I get home from work.

    @MiaSkywalker - you are truly a wonderful friend - while your friend may not be doing well financially in her life, she is extremely wealthy when it comes to having a true best friend.

    Lol! Yeah, if only they knew I was a closet gamer - haha! I am sure they would be surprised. Well I am at good position for this deal. According to Elianhere's calculator so long as the deal is over 26% I am golden!! Sorry to hear that @Sweet2 are you not able to use your phone to buy it once you get where you are going?

    That's too bad, @Sweet2. I wish there was a way to buy DD offers for others without having to pay full price. :\ Is there absolutely no way you can access the internet during the next two hours?

    Phone wasn't an option unfortunately. Sometimes I really dislike not having a drivers license, takes about three times as long to get somewhere :( If I'm patient enough I'll hopefully get it next time or maybe they're nice and throw in April 2011 ;)

    @MiaSkywalker - you are truly a wonderful friend - while your friend may not be doing well financially in her life, she is extremely wealthy when it comes to having a true best friend.
    It's easy - or at least, I think it's easy - being a good friend to someone who appreciates you. Zab appreciates me, and everything that I do for her, and it feels good to help her, since I know she suffers a lot in real life.

    I've had friends in the past who I did things for yet they never appreciated my friendship at all. Having someone who does, well, that's something I am thankful for. After being taken for granted by so many people in the past, not being taken for granted is something I'm very grateful for. Maybe that's setting my sights low, but you'd have to understand my past to understand it.

    @MiaSkywalker I'm sorry to hear that things have been tough for you in the past but it looks like it has certainly made you a stronger and better person for it. There are many people who take a lot for granted, I'll be honest I know I have at times, but after the last few years, I too now make sure to appreciate others and appreciate all the good things I have in my life. <3

    Also I had the nrras mod on my computer to help things....would anyone be able to tell me a good link for it and also what to choose when you first run it please? I recall clicking some stuff but no idea any longer. Any help would be appreciated!

    @Pixieydust - do you remember what nrass mod you had? There are a bunch of them. I use:
    - MasterController (lets you make changes to sims themselves, including townies)
    - DebugEnabler (unlocks some commands hidden by EA that can fix things)
    - Cupcaker (manages the bakery shelves)
    - ErrorTrap (helps prevent save-game corruption)
    - Overwatch (does periodic maintenance to make the game run better; for example, it deletes all the abandoned cars the town sims leave all over)
    - Register (overrides the EA system of assigning townie sims to registers and does it better)
    - Relativity (lets you manipulate the time in the game so that sims can get more done in a day)
    - Saver (Reminds you to save your game at intervals you set up - mine is set for every 30 minutes)
    - StoryProgression (overrides EA's story progression and does it better. It's a HUGE mod, so it doesn't run well on everyone's computers)
    - Traveller (opens up the non-vacation worlds [barnacle bay, bridgeport, etc] for vacations)
    - Woohooer (opens up a lot of options in this particular area...)

    Of those, Master Controller, Overwatch, ErrorTrap and StoryProgression are probably the most popular. I couldn't run my game any more without the first three. With those, you don't have to do much other than install them. They take care of themselves for the most part. Some of the others (StoryProgression especially) have a steeper learning curve, in my opinion.

    Anyway, let me know what you'd like to be able to do and I can help you research which mod will do that.

    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 Very helpful post. Thank you!
    Remember: Wherever you go...there you are.

    One day, my wishlist turned into Own the Store, and there was no more wishlist. How remarkable.

    I think, if your price is currently less than 200 it would have been free if not close to, I might be slightly off though. It you're at less than 170 if would have definitely been free



    Ohh Futureshock bedroom, :\ need way too much of a discount for free but if it's a good one (more than 61%) I'll probably get it
