Good afternoon folks. Its been a busy time for me now that spring is in full swing. I hope you all are doing well and making progress on owning the store. Im also still working on completing my Sims 3 collection so I havent found much time farm points. (Ive also been in game when I can find some free time!)
Incidentally I was also a little annoyed the store went down as I was about to register Diesel and Sweet treats :P All seems well now though.
edit: gifting is still not working for me.. guess Ill try again later!
No problem @ZombieMew! Thank you to @MiaSkywalker for the Tudor Column - the columns I have in the castle now are being changed to these and for the pebble henge, it wiil be so fun making a mill for myself with it don't know where to start lol
Thank you @EndUser for the Diva Suit, Double Knit Sweater (x2), Wood Framed Bedstead, and Strictly Business Womens Suit!
I'm a bit mad at myself for not paying more attention. I didn't realize that the Runway Riot set was on the DD earlier today and I probably could have got it for quite a low price had I known.
Hey all on this lovely morning hearing all those birds chirp outside, while feeling quite sick umpf. Oh well, it'll probably be better soon!
There was an announcement from SimGuruDrake, yesterday evening (for me, for most of you it must've been early afternoon) the site was down for maintenance. SGD also mentioned the exchange is down and they're working on it. I've heard others say store pages don't load right either. So that's hopefully all
Don't forget to take care of yourself every now and then in this big chaotic world!

I can only assume that gifting on the site while it was being wonky resulted in the duplicate sweater...
As for missing items on the DD I had my fair share of frustrations... missing the best deal on an expensive item by 20 minutes is horrible the first time and maddening the next.

I've missed a few things that made me really mad. When I was working on the Coffee Bean Hipster set (which seemed to take forever) I kept overlooking items for it on the DD or the set itself. I try to make sure the ones I really want I write down somewhere, I admire those who can make spreadsheets to help them out. And some things are on the DD at hours I wouldn't even think about being awake at and it hasn't gotten to the point where I will set an alarm. I thinkmy hisband would put me in a 12 step program if I started doing that, he already thinks I have an unhealthy obsession with the Sims.

Just remind him of his own unhealthy obsessions lol! That was what got me through

Are you familiar with the DD thread spreadsheet? If you are, they have tabs for all sorts of things, and you can sort (and search) for anything you want. In other words, if you wanted to know when any of those items are going to be on the DD, you could search on "coffee bean" or "hipster" and it would find all items that are in that set that are going to be in the rotation. Then you could just copy that information into a document to print out for yourself, so you can remember.
One thing: Because this is the last DD "list", it's going to rotate forever. (Or at least until the store closes.) I think the rotation is something like four or five months, but someone on the thread could probably give you more accurate information on that. (I've owned the store for over a year now, so haven't been on that thread in ages, and I just don't remember anymore. That means the items WILL come around again, you just might have to wait for it!
@HSmith2016 there's no such thing as unhealthy obession with the Sims
I've tried explaining that to my husband, but he isn't a gamer in any sort of way, so he doesn't understand. At all. It's very sad. I have to fit my time with the Sims around my time with him, but he goes to work around 2 in the morning and doesn't get home until 2 in the afternoon and goes to sleep around 7 at night. So there's plenty of "me time" to play and come here.
@MiaSkywalker, yes I have the spreadsheet for my time zone saved here in my computer. But I don't look at it as often as I should, especially now that I'm getting closer to owning a lot of the store. And I can't be on here all the time, so setting alarms or stuff like that won't work for me. I usually write down the things I really want on a piece of paper next to my computer. It really comes down to hoping that what I need or would like comes on the DD at a time when I can get to my computer and grab it. Which I suppose is true for most people here.

Aw no! It's why I'm single as I love to game and such lol. It's nice that you both like to spend time with each other when he's at home though and of course that we and the Sims get to have you when he's at work or sleeping

While I do miss chasing DD's,sales,etc to a certain degree its been so much nicer to just gift and acquire things for the SO's account at my leisure.
