    hi, just popping in with a question. is there going to be an update to the DD spreadsheets? right now were are about halfway through "Next Rotation" and i was wondering what happens next?

    Hi @renyerookamai! The "Current Rotation" page of the main spreadsheet is updated through the day to show the current items at the top. Since we are on the last list and it keeps rotating over and over, Jodi (@Me1620 ) adds each next rotation to the bottom of it as we go. If you are asking about the spreadsheets she made for individual time zones she will have to answer that question since I do not work on those. She is around quite a bit so I am sure she will see your message soon. Hope that helps!
    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!

    @HBSIMSTER thanks for the birthday wishes and the hugs *hugs*
    @23kels89 thank you for the birthday wishes I had a great day
    @ajaxpost I had just watched the latest episode went into game and had a similar experience, where my sim wanted to throw a bachlorete party after hubbys death, sims are weird. She never did have one to begin with though.
    As of April 24th 2015 I joined the own the store club. Thank you to those who helped in my journey.

    @renyerookami - Which spreadsheet are you referring to? I have to admit that OE has had me busy and I have not updated all the personal spreadsheets. If you post the one you use, I will update that one first.

    Hi @renyerookami, sorry I can't remember if you've visited here before so, just in case you haven't ... Welcome! :)

    And I see that you've already had the masters of the spreadsheets answer your question - hopefully it'll help you snag some great deals.

    I'm super sad to have watched the death in your Sim-family. It's so strange because while one Sim celebrates her achievement in exploring the tomb, another Sim experiences death. It was quite strange, indeed. But a very emotional episode. However, I did get a good laugh at how stubborn your Sims were - they just would not sit! :lol:
    And I have gotten my eyes screened - they told me I have "perfect" vision. Which I find it hard to believe considering I used to wear glasses (until I lost them at a gym) and my eye doctor back home on Guam told me I have fluctuating vision where my right eye blurs every now and then. The doctors here in my city insist I don't need glasses despite me telling them of my sight history. :expressionless:
    Anyway, I can't wait for another episode!! I'm actually watching your episodes from the beginning!
    Thank you again for the lovely comments, I hope you're enjoying all the time you're spending with the Slades! The death was surprisingly upsetting, I knew it was coming because it happened while I was taking that 'cheaty' look at the tomb but having to deal with it in actual live play felt very different. And, yep, Sims can be very stubborn indeed! :)

    Slightly worrying that different doctors have different opinions on how good your eyesight is! I guess the city doc could be thinking that giving you glasses might "lock in" any little problems you may have which they think are trivial or might fix themselves ... who knows, eh?!? :)

    @ajaxpost I had just watched the latest episode went into game and had a similar experience, where my sim wanted to throw a bachlorete party after hubbys death, sims are weird. She never did have one to begin with though.
    Yeah, must be some kind of simple check - newly single? Party time! But, yes, usually weird in 'real life'. :)

    I am in the process of updating the Personalized DD Trackers Spreadsheets. I am now noting the date the spreadsheet was last updated. I have updated Central, Eastern and Pacific to include deals until July 8, 2016 and am in the process of updating the other versions.

    @renyerookami - I am glad to hear you are using one of the zone-specific spreadsheets. I would love to know what you think of the spreadsheet and if you have any suggestions to improve on its design.

    thw only change i've made was adding a DD/CYS price collum to the "current and next rotation" tab, so if you want to calculate about how much each set will be on that sheet you can. i also adde som conditional formatting to that collom so that if its free its shaded in bright green

    Here are the current and upcoming deals for the next 24 hours. Through the Spy Glass and Glitter and Glam Bedroom both come in at their best discounts during this section of the rotation. We will also see the best discount for the Zen Garden Lamp from the Japanese Inspired Dining set. There are also some white deals, all individual items that are parts of Ultra Lounge Teens, Island Escape, Coffee Bean Hipster, and Viva Las Vegas, so if you are working on any of those sets take note of the "Part of" section for each of the deals below.

    It is also good to remember that A Mid-Century Modern Trailblazer Set (up currently) does not help with CYS on When Worlds Collide, since that set is not CYS enabled. You will save more simpoints by purchasing the entire When Worlds Collide Collection when it appears at number 803 for 893 simpoints.

    Hi all, now it's been a while since I "Owned The Store" and I've been collecting Simpoints ever since hoping to have enough to run a really big lottery.

    And now I have! :)

    As a special thank you to all the Simmers who have inspired me to play and contribute to the Sims community I am hosting a lottery especially for Simmers who create stories, videos, lots or Sims or share their love of the The Sims 3 in any creative way.

    With a prize fund of 25,000sp I am hoping I can gift a whole lot of great and talented creative Simmers.

    Have you created a story on a blog or here on the forums. Or maybe you've uploaded Let's Play videos or crafted some Sims 3 machinima. Or do you share your builds or Sims. Or maybe you know some one who fits that description?

    If you do any of these things but you (or they) don't yet 'Own The Store' please enter my lottery and give me a chance to gift something special!

    Please check out: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/879917/25-000sp-march-madness-creators-lottery

    Thank you! :smiley:

    Hey guys. I'm new to the site but I've been playing the Sims since it came out and I am in shock that there are still so many people, not only playing, but actually buying things from The Sims 3 store. I thought everyone but myself had moved on to the 4th game entirely! I am amazed at the DD rotation schedule. On and off for years and years, I've been getting deals here and there from the shop but had no idea that I could plan what I was going to buy way ahead of schedule-- and for the best price. I only found these threads hours ago but I am already hooked and prepared to get a bunch of great stuff soon. Thanks to all of you who do this work because this is absolutely awesome!!!!

    @LoveGirl - Welcome. There are still a few of us left playing. Hope you join the I Own the Store Club soon. You may want to download one of the Personalized DD spreadsheets to help you identify the sets you may already be able to get free on the DD.

    Is your username on the Sims 3 page LoveGirl89?

    Hey @LoveGirl welcome, great to have you onboard! :)

    Yep, there are still a lot of people playing Sims 3, and a lot of new people finding their way to the forums too which is really good - I know it was entirely due to finding such a friendly and enthusiastic community here that not only did I find great new things to do in my game but that, after a few years, I would finally own not only all the EPs and SPs but also the whole Store too! :hushed: - and I'm sure I still haven't played with half the stuff there is in the complete game!!

    When it comes to adding content to your game Jodi @Me1620 has created a wonderful resource with this thread - the first page links to almost everything you will ever need to know about getting the best out of the Store.

    And also, if you haven't done so already check out the threads in the "General / Community" section of the forum where you will find some wonderfully creative and inspiring people building, crafting Sims, creating 'challenges', and writing some wonderful stories from their games - like those listed in The Stories and Legacies Index for both TS4 and TS3 (plus even a few TS2 as well!)

    @LoveGirl welcome to the DD thread and the forums. Don't be afraid to ask any questions no matter how silly them may seem.

    Oh, man. All of you are so awesome! I woke up to gifts galore and I'm so happy right now! I'm going to be revamping my Wishlist to include some smaller items, rather than so many sets/venues. And hopefully since my husband is off work today and can care for our babies for a while, I can get on here and do some better research. I got the Loads of Laundry set for free yesterday through the DD. My first of many, I'm sure. :wink: Thank you all again!!!

    I have not seen the "smallish square black "broken" ads" for a long time, but they have been appearing the last few days. For more information check out the longer description on page 1 of this thread. Here is a bit of a description.

    PSA time!

    Today I've been getting a bunch of our old friends, the smallish square black "broken" ads, after a loooong time of not getting them (I think I have only gotten a couple since the end of "The Big Blue" when ads were almost literally infinite). It struck me that it's possible some of our new members may not be familiar with these, and we've certainly had heartbroken simmers before who didn't know how to cope with them and missed out on many Simpoints.
