Edit:
I have about 5 hours before I can poke the MMAO machine.
I do not have a wishlist as I now officially own the store. I have a thank you thread. Here is my Sims 3 page. My top 5 list can be found here (it is empty).
@Taw3001 Thanks for all the gifts! Wow--nothing on my wish list again. I'll have to go check out what else I need to get. Happy Friday all and enjoy the 1st weekend of August!

Oh my gosh! I leave the Sims 3 store/forum for a few days and come back to the lovely surprise of my (admittedly small) wishlist being completely wiped out! Thank you to @rionismyname for the lovely Taft Jug with Flowers, and many, many, many thanks to @Reachsims for gifting me the Hideaway Bunk Bed, Bountiful Beret, Pert Pixie Cut, Coffee Tray with Book Accents, and Born Beautiful Dress. Everybody here is so wonderful!
I usually just use my Wishlist as a reminder to myself of a few things I'd really like to have, but don't buy because I focus my energy/points into the items on DD or weekly sale. I mostly keep them up there in the hope that someone will occasionally be kind enough to splurge for my poor self and help me work towards the CYS discount for sets that rarely go on sale. So seeing my wishlist vanish so suddenly is like a miniature Christmas! Once again, many thanks and happy Sim-ing!
Adding on to this, @angeljess26 came along and pretty much wiped out my attempts to create another wish list no more than two hours later! Oh my gosh! I just can't get over how generous everyone is. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
P.S. I know this isn't the "proper" thread for thanking people, but I don't know a good "official" place to do that. Does anyone have any tips?
@Readalot1 you are most welcome for the gifts. You might be interested in participating in the Gifting Directory which is also a very convenient place to thank others for gifts, as countless others have done before. Have a great weekend and enjoy your game.
The bit where you said 'I only had the wishlist to remind myself' is an oft repeated reaction to it vanishing, I know, it happened to me. I was amazed at the generosity of fellow Simmers, especially DD list stalkers. Beware though, it's addictive.
@Readalot1 you're welcome for the gifts
You may want to pick a couple of sets you're working towards and put up items from them, now that you're talking here wishlists can disappear quickly, especially when people get in a gifting mood.
You can try making your own thank you thread in the gift giving and thank yous section of the forums
Edit: you need a new Wishlist again lol
And don't forget to check your CYS for all your new stuff
As of April 24th 2015 I joined the own the store club. Thank you to those who helped in my journey. DD spreadsheet
Thanks everyone for the likes, just hit 500 for a new badge. Also thank everyone for the lol's and getting me the 25 lol badge last week. Hit my 6 year badge last month.
@Readalot1 You should update your wishlist. :) I was on a DD stalker gifting spree yesterday and was sad when I found your wishlist empty. All the other generous folks beat me there!

That's what happens when people are in different timezones, you gift, people go to bed, you gift more, bye bye Wishlist.

If anybody does feel like gifting, there is a link to a wishlist in my signature to a person that is looking for help getting stuff from the store. Trying to help a friend out. Thank you to anybody who does send any gifts.
Store owner since 4/11/15.
I hope everybody has a wonderful day. Aka: Jennifer
Thanks @Reachsims! I saw your comment in the gift-giving-comment-box, and was about to create a post last night when my wishlist was double-whammied by @angeljess26 ! I did just take your advice and create a post on the Gifting Directory.
Thanks so much for the links @mothersuperior2 ! I'd seen the Cascades thread before - I think it's linked on the first page of this thread, but I've trawled through so many pages now I can't remember anymore :P The Complete a Set thread was interesting though. I made a post, and hopefully between that and the Gifting Directory I'll really be able to put a dent in some things - thanks again for the link!
@angeljess26 - YOU ARE A SAINT! Have I mentioned that? Once again, thank you for totally blowing my wishlist out of the water. If you had a wishlist left I would Ninja-Gift you in response, but I can't :'( And you were also right - I did go to bed :p I live in California, and for some reason I have a penchant for becoming an internet-zombie during the summer. I messed up my Circadian Rhythm so badly I woke up at 11:00 A.M. today.
Awww, thanks @Mrs_Law2010 ! You're so sweet to want to gift me something! I was going to gift you something just because you posted that, but I didn't see anything under your wishlist. Are you a member of the Own the Store Club? Or do you need to update your own wishlist?
As a general call out: I can't link, my responses to people don't highlight/link their names, and apparently I can't quote people either. This has been bothering me all day. Is this because I'm a n00b and don't know how to forum, or is it EA's way of punishing me for being a n00b? If it's the latter, I may have to Toadify an EA executive!

You're welcome again. To be fair the Wishlist only had 4 or 5 little items on it each time, but every little item helps.

Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend It's a long weekend here where I live so we're staying at a friends cottage so trying not to be on my phone much. I couldn't help but notice the Sims games lying on my friend's desk. Their daughter recently got them for her birthday. I started going on and on about the game and all the ep's and sp's. The kid's eyes glazed over. Not sure if it's because she didn't realize there was so much stuff available or because this "old mom" played the game lol! I briefly mentioned the store but decided I didn't want to get her "hooked" on it. She is a bit willful and I'm afraid her parents might get annoyed and not invite me back lol
@calents hope the exam went well and that u enjoy your short but we'll deserved summer break.
Welcome to @Readalot1 the information on this thread and LadybugLeslie's Cascade thread are priceless and @Reachsims Gifting Directory and the Complete a Set thread are excellent places to ask for help when working on particular sets. I wouldn't be a member of the Own The Store Club without them
@VGryphon did you get your last set? Have u gotten any exclusives free yet?
Sorry for the wall of text. Enjoy the rest of your weekends and long weekends to all my Canadian friends
I now Own the Store!!...Thank you to everyone who helped me get here
Got an email from Amazon the other day, telling me I might be interested in bargain Sims3 EP's etc. I would've been if I hadn't owned them all. They look to be about half price, I hope the offer is still on. Maybe it may help some of you, I hope so.
I have a weird sense of humour. If it doesn't come across, please forgive me in advance.
Are Kevin's undergarments lurking in a wishlist near you?

This information could be useful to me. Investigation time!
Edit: YES, the deal is still on right now! Guess I'll be blowing the remainder of my Amazon balance on the two EPs I never got around to buying, haha.
@calents hope the exam went well and that u enjoy your short but we'll deserved summer break.
Thanks! The grades are officially in and I earned As in both courses. I don't know if I'll ever do another intensive language class over the summer, it was quite grueling, but I think it was worth it in the end.
Now a member of the Own the Store Club! Thank you to everyone who helped!

I can't currently get the exclusives as they are being blocked by the Gold Worlds & Date Night. I've not been able to set aside the time to deal with customer support yet.
Yes, I did get the last set I didn't own: Dreams of India.
I do not have a wishlist as I now officially own the store. I have a thank you thread. Here is my Sims 3 page. My top 5 list can be found here (it is empty).
Keep trying @VGryphon I don't own any of the gold worlds (except Midnight Hollow) and the exclusives eventually showed up. Just be careful...after so many bad deals I was conditioned to hit the "make another offer" button and missed a free exclusive twice because of that prolonging the process
