CURRENT DD (DAILY DEAL) ROTATION & SALES HELP: STARTED SEPTEMBER 22ND

Comments

  • HopeAKHopeAK Posts: 309 Member
    Hi guys! Once again I turn to you for wisdom and advice. There are a couple of things I am considering buying on this week’s sale, but I am hesitant:
    Firstly there is the Fifth Avenue Fashions witch I own 29% off, brining me down to 605 simpoints. I still think it is expensive, but is the set even going to turn up again on DD?
    And also, the Movie screen is pretty cheap this week. Do you like it? Is it worth it(169 simpoints)?

    Merry Christmas :D (*)

    No, unfortunately it wont show up on DD as this is the very last list and its not in it. So the Sale page is your only chance on this one. Yes, its still pretty spendy, and if I hadn't just spent a couple hundred simpoints on MMAO deals tonight I would have bought it. But it seemed tonight was the night for 41+ % deals and I just had to snag them.

    I would suggest getting it if you can, though don't rush your decision, you have all week to decide on it. Hopefully I can get my points back up as I am down to only 285sp as my deal on the set. <was hoping MMAO would provide a couple extra pieces but instead it gave me some great deals on single items!> So hopefully MMAO will be as good to you and help you knock the price down a bit on it before you make your decision.

    Anyone else getting annoying black / orange ad that asks for your date of birth and gender, then says "we are sorry this offer is not available at this time"?
    I've tried different years and genders, keep getting not available. And the plum ad will come up 4 or 5 times before it lets the real ads through.

    I haven't seen those, but it would make me mighty unhappy to get an ad where I had to put in personal info. :disagree:

    You had to pick a year in which you were born and your gender. I always chose random years but if I chose a recent year, it told me I was too young (nice to hear!) then a Ford Escape would show up and you had play a little game and it gave you the 5 pts at the end. But now they're not working anymore and it's so annoying because I'm only getting those : (
    I now Own the Store!!...Thank you to everyone who helped me get here <3

    Yes, that is totally it. I've been older female, younger male, everything - and it keeps saying not available. Who is their target audience? I can be that, just let me know. Or ignore me, and let me watch Glenlivit ads for points.

    :D thank you @p-para-Xylene‌ for the gift! How was 5th Avenue anyway? I have never been. I think if there is any street I'd love to be would be Diagon Alley at Universal Studios XD Man, the first thing I would do is go get me a wand for sure! XD

    Yeah, it worked for me in the past but now, not so much. I finally got one of those Glenlivit ads and I thought of you!

    Hope the ads come back soon, I just bought the casino - kept debating it, but couldn't pass up the discount. Just checked the Up the Ante Compilation and I have a green download there so also saved pts instead of buying the Double Down Poker and Roulette Set. Great deal!! Off to bed now...yet another late night :(

    Anyone who bought / buys the Casino, don't forget to check the Up the Ante compilation; it will be free for you. (Which is why buying the other two items for any price isn't worth it - you can get them for free if you work things right.)

    Agreed as this is how I got my Up the Ante Compilation. Plus, the casino at 65% off is a great deal! I am very happy I got it on the very first run of the list.

    @ spreadsheet team & others - I will be in and out today so I worked ahead the next 2 deals on the spreadsheet (checked regular prices) and will double check for any issues throughout the day. If you see any problems please let me know.

    Zorro my parrot has a pedicure (a.k.a. nail trim) this morning at the vet's. Once his talons start to leave welts in my shoulder and neck it is time to have them use the dremel tool. :) It would be so much cheaper if he would let me use the nail file here at home, but he demands only the best professional pedicure... :unamused:
    a.k.a. Samantha (though Sam is just fine, too. Also, Simmantha, according to my husband.)

    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!

    You're welcome. It felt like it took FOREVER to get that set, but I finally did with others' help! I'm just paying it forward.

    Haha! Isn't it fun clipping the nails of pets? I have to do my two kitties today. Fortunately, these two are much easier than my previous cats, and they're a dream compared to my sister's cats! As long as one person hold her and the other person does her claws, both of them are very docile and cooperative. But if one person tries to do it by herself, neither of them will cooperate at all! They just want the extra attention, I think. Or maybe it's just a matter of principle for them. ;)

    Oooh Zorro is high maintenance but I bet you will feel much better without those welts. Uggghh I need to do Minnie's nails and she is not one of those cute wee bunnies that you can just flip over and go for it, she is a big vicious bunny that wont allow anyone to handle her except me and doing her nails requires the speed and agility of a gymnast and a tetanus shot. If you have never been attacked by a mad bunny let me assure you it hurts.

    You can call me smustle or Lori if you prefer.

    For those of you with Macs, some of the Lego games are on sale in the App Store. I just got Lego Harry Potter years 1-4 for $4.99. Glad I didn't buy it for $10 from Origin!
