OK.
The title is self-explainatory, so, i really wanted to buy Sims 4 Cool Kitchen Stuff and Sims 4 Romantic Garden Stuff, but then i realised that you could only buy them digitally, with your credit card.
well, my parents would have bought it for me but. Long story short, i once bought a game with a card, and after a while, somebody somehow hacked my mom's credit card, and she lost all the money she had on that card(she had ALOT of money on that card), from then, i haven't heard of that card ever again. and i don't think that i will hear of stuff/game packs ever again either if ea continues with this stupid idea of selling them only digitally.
like seriously, some people would cry to get that game(not me) and i really really want that game.
also, reason 2 that i want a physical copy of it is that i wanna add it to my collection! because i have alot of other sims dvd's/cd's, so.

Even if I die, I'll still feel alive knowing that there are people that loved me. -Ryan Yamada

Then i saw it on origin and bought it with a paysafecard and needed to go out to buy the card.
In my opinion its a bit safer to have a disc then having it digital.
It would be great if I could buy all the stuff packs this way too. I had managed to get "perfect Patios' and 'Spa Day' this way too but at Best Buy. I haven't found the other stuff packs anywhere but online so I don't own them yet.
I would prefer to have a disc too but a least I do have a case.
I also use the EA Sims4 Cards.

Are you sure you shouldn't talk to them about stuffpacks before buying them?
If you do choose to talk to your parents about it, please do explain to them the difference between expansions and stuffpacks.
Thanks in advance.
As for retail/digital my room was filled with crapload of floppies, CDs, DVDs, manuals and boxes. And then I went digital - tossed away (almost) every physical thing from games I could register, rebought old games for cheap mostly on GOG, but some also on Origin and Steam.
I couldn't believe myself but my room now doesn't look as dump any more.
The point of the story - go digital whenever you can. If you want to buy something physical, go for stuff you can actually use. For example if you like Mass Effect, instead of gathering cds and crap, get yourself a nice and shiny t-shirt you can wear everyday or something useable from Bioware official store:
http://www.biowarestore.com/brands/mass-effect.html?dir=asc&limit=all&order=top_sellers
Personally, I checkout using PayPal as they have excellent customer service. I have only once had an issue with a PayPal charge that was not mine, and they immediately investigated and took care of it. It's a very safe way to purchase things online.
So much this. I haven't even bought a DVD rom for my pc in 5 years. No issues whatsoever plus digital is better for the environment imo.
My tumblr - A world of clutter and color
Reason one is that I like looking at all those Sims game cases.
And reason two is that they make great reference sometimes, when ever a debate over what contents or a game interaction for which previous Pack may come up.
I much prefer using a non-credit card alternative, such as a Steam/Origin card, when purchasing games digitally... Mainly I am too lazy to use a credit card.
what is they are not in the us? cause in canada(my country) and other places i am aware of don't get them.
I dunno.
Contains 1 game pack & 2 stuff packs. They should be avalable at most gaming store outlets.
I know! I have bundle pack nr #1 which has: The Sims 4 Spa Day, The Sims 4 Perfect Patio Stuff and The Sims 4 Luxury Party Stuff.
But theres no bundle out yet for The Sims 4 Romantic Garden stuff, which concerns me alot
Since I know people outside of the U.S. have harder times then people in the US (glares at the people being rude to the OP) to get so called "EA cash cards". I'm one of those people who can't buy stuff online (due to the fact Canadian bank cards DO NOT WORK on Origin) and would like a pyschially copy in stores so I could pay for the stuff myself instead of having to have someone (ie my sister in my case) use her paypal account to buy for me. Which means I couldn't get Patio Pack
No, i'm not from canada, i come from a country in europe, Romania.
They will more than likely bundle it with the restaurant game pack in the future, so you may have to wait. It's better lol, I picked up both those bundle packs on sale in the game store, saved almost 50% vs the origin sales......anyway origin only seems to put the base game and exp packs and game packs on sale, I have not seen them put a stuff pack on mark down yet.
So wait and pay less
Haha well if i order from websites i choose to pay when they deliver me the thing, like they deliver me the things through fan courier or something like that, and when they arrive at my door, my parents pay them.( the money that i save up
