      Sorry I haven’t replied since last night, lots of cool Premium Content to design. I don’t normally get to post on the forums until very early or very late.

      There are two Premium Content items coming out with the upcoming venue. At least one of these two Premium Content items has been seen before in Sims 2 (Hopefully that helps the bubble, Cinderellimouse .)

      There are two other items that have never been released before in the Sims Store. Even their type is unique when it comes to the Store, which is why I’m so excited about them. (Again, these have nothing to do with pools in any way.) One of these two items also made an appearance in Sims 2.
      So eliminating a few more things…

      The Premium Content has nothing to do with:
        Pools
        Weddings
        Baking (although I LOVE that idea)
        Bathing or bathrooms (this includes tubs)
        Heart shaped anything
        Chocolate anything
        Pottery, Glass Blowing, Candle making or Flower Arranging (although I've loved all of these ideas for some time.)
        Bear Skinned anything (or "love" anything)
        Bowling
        A Gym
        Hotels
      I’m also curious if Mr. Hawk has the right guess. Hawk, you’ll have to let us know if you were right.
      And again, I have no control over when they post the blog, but I’ll be here, giving hints, until they do.


      Thank you for all the hints and updates SimGuruCopeland! I am very excited to see what we have in store for Thursday's release! Glad I saved a bunch of Simpoints now!
      And MrHawk, I want to strangle you (jk of course)for information and admire you all at the same time! :lol:

      I'm guessing an alfresco street market :)

      Yeah! OK, I'm cheating. Tatertot has put a blog up ;)

      http://www.thesims3.com/myBlog.html?persona=SimGuruTaterTot

      I hope the market stand is one of the PC items and we can interact with it. Nice call SGCopeland. I'm very pleased and am excited to see all the items that are going to be available. I think this is a good choice for Monte Vista and will be very useful in other worlds too. I'm glad this is the 'venue' that was chosen but have loved reading about all the other ideas in this thread too and hope that some of them can be considered for the future.

      Back to the alfresco market... and the NEED to see a bigger picture :D

      Edited: as I rushed to post first time around having seen Tatertot's tweet on Twitter:)

      Well done store people!

      I am sorry, but this post is just unnecessary. If you aren't going to tell people what you've found, then there is NO NEED for you to even post something like this.

      Oh please. I said I found it, then pointed out how people could find it themselves, WITHOUT spoiling the items. It's not my place to spoil it. If you're not going to go find it yourself, why would you expect me to annoy the staff by releasing their content info that they're not permitted to?

      And thanks for that. :thumbup:

      Wow! This is awesome. I wonder what it sells. I'm guessing it comes with a Sim (one of the never before released items maybe) as a vendor? :mrgreen:

      Ok so we have a street market... with carts...

      I wonder if our sims will be able to sell their fruits and veggies from the carts and not just buy them...

      That didn't say much but I'm glad we got something before the maintenance. This should be interesting.

      Hmmm....based on your list I know one is spot-on but am now second-guessing the other.

      Looking forward to it! Thank you for hinting.

      I will wait for the descriptions, but if Sims can interact with the fruit and vegetable carts, I will squee. I can finally make my festival lots like the ones in Chicago, along with the activities, there will be a farmers market. I like it.

      EDiT: Just read SGCopeland's response. SQUEEEE!
      Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

      Now this is exciting news! Perhaps testing the waters for a potential Business themed EP in the future?

      I have to say I am very excited by the fountain, not just because it looks awesome but that along with a costume and two decorative items that came with Seasons gives me hope that I may eventually get the one thing I have wanted in the game since TS2, that's all I'm going to say for now (though I'm sure many people know what I'm on about :P) ^_^

      Did we get a hint and I missed it because he removed it! The blog section of the site is down and I'm combing through the Store Patch again to see what the brilliant Mr. Hawk detected and I found one thing I'm not sure what it is I missed before. Aagh! :?

      You're welcome! I'd hate for someone to do that to me.

      And the market stall isn't what I found! My inner teenage fangirl is screaming about it, though, since OFB is what I most miss from the old days.

      Eagerly awaiting further upcoming releases..... :)

      Well I definately want more info before I get too excited (like with the greenhouse). We can buy and sell fruit and veggies now at the grocery store. What we can't do is sell to other Sims. Nothing has been said to say we can with these carts. I missed the blog (looking at the wrong one) before it went down for maintenance. Based on the pic posted in this thread, the lot is lovely though!

      I also miss OFB and the crafts and also the jucier. I hope these thing make a comeback before they are done with TS3.

      what's the thing in the corner

      So since it is Italy, the statue would be Neptune. Lol

      AndIsee three styles of carts, Cooler lookin wall ivy, a ground planter, the neat deco merchant cart. Plazzo de Italia meets Farmer's Market, I like it.

      It looks lovely though i didnt see the blog before the site went down. But looking at the fointain i see it has running water...soooooooo...does this mean the fountains will be fixed now? because when last i checked (which i havent since the last store patch i admit) several of my fountains still don't run.

      Love the decor i see in the pic. And the carts will be neat for adding to festivals as was another simmers idea!

      Does the cart come with an NPC?
      I'm going to buy it anyway, but it would be nice to know.

      I can't see the blog, so I'm going purely on the pic posted in this thread.
