That's to bad @Kylieb191. Luckily you get another chance for the same deal in about 3 months. Or wait for deal number 528. But even though that is a good deal (646 / 1710 / 62% ) the deal you just missed is slightly better.
Thank you I'll wait it out as want to get the best deals on the final 3 venue's I have left just means that I have time to work my way through the individual items .
@Kylieb191 i think u should definitely wait... I love the glass roofs who comes with the set but at all it's just too expensive and not worth for the full price. Greetings and hope u will catch it next time.
I'm waiting for a SimPoints sale...
@miklc Congratulations for getting the bakery. It comes with nice build objects even i rarely play with the whole set 😅
Hey EA we have to stay at home..so we need to play Sims and i need SimPoints. 😂🙄😅
^ I've been lurking Origin and still no discount on those SimPoints. It has been months since the last discount. They keep having discounts for things I'm not interested in. I wish SimPoints (and worlds) would go on sale (more often). We probably would buy even more if those SimPoints are cheaper (hint hint EA)
@goodFeel93 It does look like such a pretty building amongst the other two venues, I mean i've waited this long what's another 3 or so months haha. I just paid for 5000sp and hated paying the full amount for them. They've moved onto sims 4 and putting them all on sale now
@SimLibby I agree, I thought the other day the sp would come down in price but nope
I'm back ... ish. I've been sick, stuck with family issues and I've even been bitten by a 🤬 spider (and I'm no Peter Parker).

They try to making so much money with The Sims 4.
I saw this "Eco Lifestyle Pack" Just recycled garbage. It's unbelievable what they try and do with Sims 4... But people still buy it...
They could do much more money when they would set the SP on sale. People still care for Sims 3 and would buy i think.
Welcome back @Lexers615 so it's true Spiders can bite u? I mean df?! I like spiders but now... 😅
Hope u feeling better soon and i know family issues...
@goodFeel93 I caught the 🤬 and used Google to identify it. It's a yellow sac spider (https://www.quikkill.com/are-yellow-sac-spiders-dangerous), and their attacks are getting more and more frequent in Eastern Canada. They're originally from southern Mexico but spread all over North America, stowing away on fruit shipments. Today, they've basically reached every single major urban centers.
Still, I was floored for 4 days, and by back, hips and shoulders still hurt.
I'm still somewhat lucky; they caught some black widows in Montreal over the last couple months.

@goodFeel93 I was trying to look at how many total packs for the pcd they had for sims 4 but couldn't find the full lot, I went on the playstation store and there's tons of them on there . I don't think sims 4 has been as popular as they wanted it to be as I see more sims 4 stuff on sale than I ever did for sims 3.
They would do but it's EA for you, I honestly also think that if they made a stuff pack with more modern stuff on people would buy it as well, that's just my thinking though. If they do make a sims 5 let's hope they go back to open worlds and realistic looking sims although there are some bits that i'd love from sims 4 when I demo'ed it.
@Lexers615 welcome back! Ouch about the spider bite though - don't mind house spiders as such as they leave you alone but others? not so much. Sucks that you didn't become spiderman though.
Well... Becoming Spiderman would have been nice, especially regarding the increased appeal for the ladies! 😁

Hi DD'ers! I've been simmingly busy lately as I found a new mermaid world that has me enthralled, but had to stop in to like up Regina's posts and to say...I've heard from an old friend! Who doesn't think anyone here will remember her much but I think so. Remember our beloved master gifter @NagyGina? She had some life complications and disappeared for awhile but she asked me to "give everyone my apologies for my departure, and tell them that I miss them & wish them all well, and look forward to returning!"
Here's hoping she'll be able to get back to us real soon.

@ZeeGee I'm glad you are having a fantastic time with the new mermaid world, I hope this inspires you to create more machinimas! I have never had the pleasure of meeting @NagyGina , but I'm happy to hear she is returning, I hope she has been able to resolve her life complications and that she enjoys Simming again!
@LMC6255 Thank you and it has actually inspired me! I started playing it cause I needed a ‘play’ break from Bella’s story. Machinima is frustrating sometimes, especially finding the right animations. It’s not like we can tell our actors what to do. 😜 Now I’m refreshed, looking forward to finishing Bella’s story (I’m working on the finale) and then starting a new story. I had originally planned to go back and redo some of my awful early episodes of the Prequel but now I’m not sure about that. It may have been told badly, but the story has been told. Hehe.
I also did a short story about Jodi and Charlotte and Scilla that I’d like to redo. Beginner efforts, ugh.
@Jude525 If your really desperate for some type of sims fun the sims 4 is on Xbox 😜
Yeah, key word is "desperate." LOL
I actually own thre base gameon Xbox. But I already own it on PC with several packs, and really don't enjoy it on Xbox enough to repurchase everything. Also, just like Sims 3 on Xbox, I'm not a fan of using the controller v a mouse. Especially for building. I know I can connect my trackball AMD keyboard, but haven't checked if Sims 4 recognizes them. Not all games do.
I'm back ... ish. I've been sick, stuck with family issues and I've even been bitten by a 🤬 spider (and I'm no Peter Parker).
I'm sorry you've been under the weather, but I had to hit "awesome" for the Spider-man reference. I own every Spider-man movie made, some in 3D, and did a marathon watching then all back to back a few weeks ago.
Thanks to this thread, I was able to pick up the bakery at a discount yesterday
Now I'm on the look out for the World of Wonder and Now/Then Century Manor venues.......let the waiting begin
I love using the items from the bakery, more so than actually playing the venue. I did a custom build with it. If you are on a browser that shows links, you can check out a quick tutorial I did on restocking the cases. It is in my build thread, with a link on the first page.
I also LOVE the carousel from WOW. Every time I use an EA lot with a "fake" carousel, I replace it with the real thing
Not sure if y'all know this, but EA actually does a series of surveys to determine what each new TS4 pack will be. I've seen a few in process and still can't believe the options that are presented, and chosen.
As for producing pack after pack, I think they push them out on the cheap, without much creative effort. So the profit margin is high.
Which is also why they don't put TS3 stuff on sale often. They know it is mostly hard core fans still buying it, and that we will pay full price to get what we like.
I know I've said this often... What kills me is that they charge full price for The Sims 3, with known bugs, and then provide almost no support on the product. But they are right. I kept going till I owned everything. So...
