Seems I always get a post in and then OE distracts me, this time 300+ notifications. Aside from getting the kids ready for back to school, one of my cats ended up with an aural hematoma on his ear. He had surgery a couple weeks ago and got his stitches out on Friday, but it's filled back up again. He goes back in tomorrow and I'm guessing they'll have to do it all over again. Poor guy has had to wear a cone this whole time.
Lots of great deals coming on the daily deal! Sad I missed out on the basketball hoop! Gosh darn that sleeping and working thing. lol. Shame I need the latter to top up my simpoints. LOL
Oh no, @KittyKat8103 - I hope your cat is better, soon! So hard when the furry ones are sick, as they can't tell you exactly what's wrong.
@Elf67 - I'm getting mostly broken ads, too, and not the good ones where I can click them through to the end.
@trithone - I hope the bathroom repair/remodel is going smoothly!
I am finally able to download from the store again, so I'm forcing myself to get back to work downloading all store content and backing everything up with the hope that load times won't be so horrendous once I actually finish and get back to the game - which I realize is wishful thinking...
Hope everyone is doing well!

My thread of Sincere Thanks
No more wishlist for me! It disappeared in a poof of gift-giving smoke!
@Elf67 - I've also gotten quite a few of the broken ads. Especially the ones that are a big square with the little ad you can usually X out of and still get the points for.
~~~~~***~~~~~
Something weird is going on in the store. Is anybody else getting a download button on the Kingdom of Cambodia Bedroom set and Kingdom of Cambodia Bathroom set (individually), but then not getting it for the Kingdom of Cambodia Bedroom and Bathroom set (combined)? It's especially weird because for the Bathroom set I only own 2 items, and for the Bedroom set I only own 1 item. I pressed the download button for the small sets, and I installed them. I haven't checked in-game yet to see if they are really installed. The small sets still show the CYS percentage as low, but also have the download button and the orange check mark. Then, when I go to the combined set, it still has the CYS price of 895 points.
@shayleajay - I was going to gift you something, but you have a lot of duplicates on your wishlist. Gifters don't get the same Complete Your Set discount you do. Please choose either individual items for sets that you already own parts of (to increase the CYS discount) or entire sets that you don't own any pieces to.
Sorry about that, I use the wishlist to keep track of the things I want, if I write it down on some scrap of paper I usually end up losing the note, also when I browse through my list it will tell me if a set I want is currently on sale (that was before I discovered this amazing DD chart). Which is why I have mostly whole sets, it also won't let me remove items from the list (I've tried repeatedly and it's still there when I refresh the page).
I put the Bohemian Garden individual items at the top because that's the set I'm going to be getting when it comes up this weekend and a few people offered to help me by gifting pieces from the set so that the DD price will be discounted even more.
Once I have that set I'll move another set (the next one I want that's coming up on DD) and pieces from it to the top. I do have several other individual items in my wishlist and I've moved them up to under Bohemian Garden.
And super-deluxe-congrats @ZeeGee for owning the store! That is awesome!!!
you are welcome for the gift @shayleajay a little tip try using the cart to keep track instead of wishlist and after moving/deleeting things dont go off the page just hit refresh that worked for me also try just doing a few things at a time and refresh in between I did the same thing as you at first but once I cleaned up my list I got gifted like crazy now I own the store and it took only 3 months I hope this doesnt offend you and I hope you find it helpfull good luck and Happy Simming

Thank you everyone. He's been doing surprisingly well when it comes to the cone, but the medication is another story. Trying to squirt liquid into a cat's mouth isn't easy lol.
Oh and @jbsquared2000 I loled when you said you saw my avi's hairstyle in CAS and you wondered how I was. That will now most likely forever be my signature hairstyle
thank you @jbsquared2000 no more wishlist for me (unless you count When Worlds Collide but that would just be a waste of points since I have all the items)
So now waiting for the MMAO exclusives. I've seen people mention getting them free but was that an offer with a single item or multiple? Just got five of multiple and only had 19% off
Thanks! I'm slowly getting ads at around 10 per day trying to save for the MMAO exclusives. (Edit: 3 more to go.)
I hope your furry child gets well soon, @KittyKat8103 !
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). Click here to request a signature banner.

Sorry I haven't been around much. Hubby has been sick and finally had to admit him last week to hospital. He is still in, and they transferred him to the big hospital an hour away for better testing. Hopefully the test he is having today will finalize the diagnosis and start the proper treatment. I'm hoping once they do that they can transfer him back to local hospital which is only 5 minutes from the house. I've been reading forums and building trying to stay chilled out. I know I've missed some things and am sorry. Waves to @frozenorangejuic!! Glad to see you back and hope you are much better now.
I haven't been able to get points lately as the internet at the hospital is not that great and cuts out all the time.

Your advice is very helpful thankyou, actually managed to get my wishlist organised a bit. Might take some time but I will start moving sets to my grocery cart to keep track of them so only individual items are in my wishlist to make it easier for people to gift me.
My Wishlist HERE pieces from the set(s) I want are at the top. My Top 5. My Thankyou Thread for my kind gifters. A world of my own creation Aure Island.
@bekkasan - Sandi, sorry to hear that your husband is not well. I hoping the tests give some answers and he can recuperate close to home.
@Akeelney - Welcome. Glad you find the information here helpful. Our goal is to help as many simmers as possible own the store, or at least as much of the store that you want.
thats great @shayleajay a little bit of added advice keep sets that you cant cys like The Duke of Bows Renaissance Faire as a whole set on your wishlist instead of the seperate items that way you can get the whole set and nobody pays for something you already have

I know the feeling regarding the cat. It's even more fun when your cat's claws remind you of Freddy Kruger! Hope the kitty gets better soon.
@pinkieposh - All three do appear on the DD.
Deliciously Indulgent Bakery is on the list 3 times, the cheapest being deal #771 for 855sp on the 19th of October.
The Now & Then Century Manor is also on the list 3 times, the cheapest one is #390 for 494sp on the 17th of September.
Prism Art Studio is on the list only once at deal #124 for 931sp on the 26th of August.
If you go to the first page of this thread there's a link to the 'Awesome DD Schedule Calculating Spreadsheet'. When you get to the spreadsheet, scroll down 'til you find the item you're looking for and then follow the info across to find out when it will appear in your timezone. Also, along the bottom is a tab ( Sort by Item/Set ) where you can find some of the info alphabetically

Those are gonna be a pain in the butt to gather points for since they won't let you CYS for it. Also you can ctrl+f on the spreadsheet and just type in what you're looking for to find it, that's how I find the stuff I want quickly.

Yes. And I am from the Philippines so the ad dont work for me. I am saving up money to buy simpoints in September as a bday gift to myself. But since the Art Prism will go on sale on the 26th, I might have to buy earlier or wait for it to come up again. Decisions. Decisions.

...I'm confused.
