It's amusing to me that we all seem to have grown up watching LGR's videos. I hope EA gives this all away for free when they eventually stop supporting the store, but I'm not holding my breath!

Thank you for providing the rotation list, its defnitely nice to have. One way you can double dip with deals, is by shopping a daily deal, and purchasing a cheap item on sale that is oart of a set. Like say a lamp for 15-25 simpoints. Then, go to that set. Whether it is a daily deal offer or not, you will get a larger discount on the remaining set than you even spent on the item that was a part of it. Say you spend 15 on a 25 lamp. If you complete your set, you will be discounted about 45 simpoints. It's odd, but it works.

So happy I found your channel. I was watching the sims 3 vs 4 2022 comparison. I recently came back to ts3 because horse ranch was just so disappointing. I’m not going to buy it until it’s on sale. Seeing all the youtube simmers playing horse ranch made me miss horses so much. The majority of my ts3 content like legit 95% is horse related 😂. I do love decorating though and forgot I have mostly decor cc in 4 instead of 3 lol. I love the vet career and decorating my home and apartments full to the max with cute clutter. The gameplay for pets is ts3 hands down. I’m more of a builder though. My computer will literally explode if I add anymore sims 3 cc. I can hear it wheezing just booting up the game lol. I have too much crap on my computer tbh. Definitely going to check out the store now! 😊

@YasminsCorner 9 ай бұрын

Hey, thanks for commenting!! Gosh yes, I was initially excited for horse ranch - but I will probably also wait for it to go on massive sale (if I buy it at all!!). After playing around with horses in the sims 3 - there seems to be a lot missing from the new sims 4 ep :( Ah hope you find some cool stuff on the store, but please don't blow up your pc for it hahaha!!

@@anyaflowerofsummer4320 On the Sims 3 website, hover over the "My Page" drop-down at the top. Then hover over the "My Account" button at the bottom of that drop-down. Click "Register A Game" to enter the CD key. I purchased The Sims 3 on Steam, so if you got your copy there as well and need to find the code do this: in your Steam library right click the game, then hover over the "Manage" button in the drop-down, then click "CD Keys". Use that code on the Sims 3 website to register your game.
