      Ughh..they tricked me into buying the last SP I needed with the 30% off a few days ago. Sneaky buggers!

      SP's dont' get sales often...Should have realized the holiday season would bring a better one though. Great news for peeps that still need packs though!

      Why is TS3 never on sale? Blasphemy!

      Well I think I'll buy two SP's then. Finally going to get fitness stuff and laundry day.

      Finally, SPs on sale! I, uh... bought three. :D Figured I might as well take the opportunity to get the ones I've been wanting, since decent SP sales are very rare.

      Every freaking time !!!!!!! I wait and wait and finally buy for the 30% then it goes to 50% - most retail stores if it has been less than 10 day so you can get the new sale price - not EA and Origin :(

      Same. I bought 3 SPs and now I only have MFPS left. I've been vowing not to cave in since it was released but now I don't know if I should just buy it for completeness or not.

      Thanks for posting. I missed the 30% off sale by less than an hour. Turns out it was good luck. Now I can get Laundry Day and the Bowling pack. :)

      Happy Simming!

      Thanks for letting us know! Does anyone have any idea how long the sale generally lasts? I'm not sure what people may have gotten me for Christmas, so I wanted to wait to buy any until the day after :)

      It appears to be until the 11th of January so you can afford to wait.

      YES! Thanks for posting the sale deadline. I'm tapped out until after Christmas and was hoping it would last awhile. Can't wait to get some packs I'm missing, like Jungle Adventure, Bowling Night, Kids Stuff especially. I'd love Cats & Dogs and/or Get Famous too, but despite having a new gaming desktop, I've been hesitant. I'm not sure it could handle C&D. Probably... but I don't know. It defaulted to Ultra when I loaded the game with everything else on it, so... maybe?

      Anyway, thanks again! <3

      I'm honestly fine with getting GF at 30% off. It's a good price as any. Although I'm surprised it's already 50% off just 1 month after release, even if it is the holiday season.

      The holiday season is a perfect time to reflect on our blessings and seek out ways to make life better for those around us :innocent:

      Wow, the SP's are on sale on their own for once...but ofc I had already bought the rest of the stuff packs I was missing for the 30% coupon sale. Oh well, I still got them for a decent sale price.

      I bought 2 stuff packs and 1 game pack a few days ago... paid £9.99 for laundry stuff and now it’s 5.99 😭

      only packs I need now to complete my collection is Romantic Garden and MFPS. Worth paying £5.99 each for them?

      Romantic Garden is one of my favourite stuff packs so thumbs up for that one. MFPS however is one of the two I'm still missing myself (the other is Luxury Party) and personally I'm gonna hold off to get them later. The sale is good but I feel like I got enough new content to explore already.

      There probably won't be another sale for stuff packs this low until the end of next year.

      I think this is the lowest SPs have been since the ORIGIN50 sale in Sept 2016. I've been fairly diligent with checking for sales on SPs and have been waiting all this time for another 50% sale. I went ahead and caved - I bought Vintage Glamour and Laundry Day because those were the two I wanted most.

      The 50% off sales seem to run twice a year sometime in July and then December. I just didn't wait long enough 5 freaking day short. If this was retail I could get my extra 10 buck back and purchase something else. I tried talked to two people at EA - nope, nada nothing they can do - I call BS

      Always thought I'd go for the fitness and bowling packs if there's ever a sale, but I ended up getting the fitness and luxury party packs instead. I never had any interest in this, but now that I have Get Famous I thought they might go well together. I'm still missing about half of the stuff packs, so I might get a couple more before the sale ends :-)

      BTW, after I bought the three packs, the game wouldn't load. It almost gave me a heart attack. I repaired the game and I was able to load it then. Whew!
