Any one else getting present piles that never stop giving? My sims family just got the pile of presents you put under the tree on Winterfest and it is almost summer now and every day each family member has been able to open a present and sneak a present. No one has added any presents to the stack other than what Father Winter brought - maybe he felt bad for giving one of the sims poop when he asked for a present and left a ton of presents! I admit I am exploiting it since these sims are rather poor
I have played other families in this rotation and some did have presents that lasted a few days but never this long - I am curious how long this will go on for the other family.

> I have seen this crop up recently in my 100 Baby Challenge. It really helped everyone's glum moods, but it definitely seems to be a bug.
You're all making me feel super validated in my decision to just get rid of them. I still wasn't sure if it was a bug or not, but it felt too much like cheating so I tossed 'em last night. I'm doing the 100 Baby Challenge too and definitely don't want to cheat. I wonder if I should sell their nice new stove and repurchase some things to sort of burn through some of this money they shouldn't have... :neutral: I do so love their Schmapple stove though, hahaha. :smile:
I admit that sometimes I exploit it and sometimes it just feels too cheaty depending on what sort of story I am playing - plus if you leave them out, the Sims are always getting whims to open a present. In the game I am playing now - I even got just the smallest present pile to see if it would do the same as the big present pile and so far it is still going strong through 4 generations!

I had my sims donating to charity though the computer to offset the generosity of Father Winter. 😋 It does boost fame a bit, but I don't feel like that goes against the spirit of the challenge. I'm not exactly following the rules exactly anyway. 😏 (Also, that Schmapple stove is schomething schmecial... love it too!)
