    in The Sims 3 Store General Discussion
    From March 14th through March 17th, The Sims 3 Store will be having a World Sale on select back-catalogue worlds for over 50% off.

    NOTE FOR EUROPEAN USERS: Sale will begin generally in the mid-morning, PDT!

    The Worlds included in this sale will be:

    Lucky Palms: Standard Edition

    Lucky Palms: Gold Edition

    Barnacle Bay Bundle

    As many of you know, we don't have these world sales that often, so if you've been holding out on getting any of these worlds (or just want to be a friend and gift it to people's wishlist), here's your chance to get it at a really steep discount.

      I think that will be a lovely sale for those that do not already have these worlds, so kudos to the Store team! I have both and really enjoy Lucky Palms. :mrgreen:

      Does it apply to Barnacle Bay if it's on your wishlist?

      Will the venue for lucky palms be available at sale price? I've already paid full price for the standard so obviously I won't be getting the complete gold edition. I have been waiting patiently for a sale on the venue! :)

      Also pretty disappointed that sunlit tides is not included I've also been waiting a long time for it :(

      :D It would be nice if the store team rewarded those who buy earlier.

      Most of these sales are useless for those who have the items already and it would be nice during these sales if you would introduce a new item or mini set.

      It would make people who already have those items feel included in the sale instead of just ignoring it. Plus, it would be good for the store's bottom line. Win win. I know I would like it. :mrgreen:

      But um, LunarLakes and SunlitTides Standard wants to be on sale too. Those worlds feel vwery vwery neglected. It's just a coincidence really, that those are the only bits I don't own yet. :P

      It was enough lol. One copy was my husbands, then I got a copy for my birthday present we got the $60.00 version and then of course they were unplayable for about a week... Things there seem to be going better finally got the server issue sorted out, mostly. Now they just need to fix some bugs and put all the stuff they took out back in, and I'd be thrilled if they listened and put in an offline mode too :D

      So great SimGurus, since SimCity people were promised a free game to make up for trouble just throw these worlds into the mix? :D

      I'm sure they won't but can't hurt figure it'll be a lame game for free anyways lol

      Happy belated b-day!

      I'm glad the server issue was sorted out for y'all. For 2 zillion dollars I guess it's cool that at least you get a few game thrown in for your troubles. I'd prefer Store Credit, though, yeah! :lol:

      Thanks :) Yeah I'd like store credit too but they said a game in there portfolio so.. :S I'm just more of a Sims 3 addict then SC so would be nice if it was store credit to this game instead hehe :)

      Though now the 2 zillion dollars are paying off it as they've fixed the major problem for most.

      I am starting to know how you feel. Sometimes it takes a while for something I don't already own to show up on the DD. There was one month, almost every single offering was already purchased. And yet, the anticipation of a new release is always fun -- for those of us who know we can afford it -- if we want it bad enough. But many folks can't afford to buy most or any of the new stuff on day-of-release no matter how much they want it, so for them, every second Thursday is like... the grand opening of a too-expensive ice cream store. Think about how they feel every second Thursday...

      They're already excluded every second Thursday, so sales like this helps more folks feel included for a change. :D Now more people can finally have as much fun playing with new stuff as I have been lucky enough to enjoy all this time!! :D

      But you know, I could get luckier... Come 'on LunarLakes and SunlitTides Standard! :P

      This is really nice but Lucky Palms AND the casino were already featured during the last batch of bigger sales and BB is constantly on sale half off (or more...I got it for like 6$) on origin or other retailers because it comes as a box version also.

      I love sims and the store content but literally the same stuff is always on sale and I'm kind of tired of it :cry: Like all the forest/animal themed kids' items I've owned for two years now that are on the daily deal everyday.

      So I appreciate the sale and hope people get to enjoy Lucky Palms, being a great world, but you're leaving out a large group of simmers who already own these two items.
