Okay, so this might sound a little complicated, so bear with me.
In the Sims 3, in my Amazon Challenge, I had a storehouse; a community lot full of the treasure chest items from World Adventures where my sims from various lots put stuff for the whole town to use. For example, I'd have my gatherers & farmers take the fruit and veggies they'd harvested in their lot to the storehouse, and then the queen's household could go there and grab whatever they wanted. It was really fun, and an easy way to transfer items from one sim to another.
Is there a way I can do this in Sims 4? I know I can drag and drop things from my sims' inventory to a different lot, but the issue is that when I switch to the household that's received the vegetables or potions or whatever, they can't put them in their own inventory or in the fridge or whatever because they don't technically 'own' them. Is there a cheat, or something in the game, that would allow me to transfer items over? I'm pretty sure the 'give gift' interaction from Seasons doesn't actually put the gift in the other sims inventory, or am I mistaken?

In the past I have dedicated a sim to the job of being a curer(?). I moved the sim into the giving household, for them to add stuff to his/her inventory. In addition they would add some sort of payment for the service, for the sim to keep/sell. Then the sim would move into the receiving household, to deliver those items, eventually receiving some payment item there, as well. It sounds a bit tedious, but making the service sim make this a steady income (he was mostly used by painters needing to deliver portraits to the painted sims), made it kind of fun.
I see from replies that you can use the gifting feature more easily though
If you give Simoleons, it also transfers the money into the other Sims account; dosen’t help if the Sims are in the same household but if the Sims are in different households it works great. When one of my Sims got engaged to her high school sweetheart, I sent her moms and stepbrother to gift money to the fiancé frequently so he could get a nice house for the two of them.

Good to know gifting simoleons actually puts the money in the other sims bank accounts, too.
