Yeah, a bit like buying a gorgeous dress from the shop then seeing it go on sale the next week. Just got to lump it.

I'm sorry, but that's just how it is.  If EA is putting things on sale to promote the game, it's going to be things that some people already have.  They're certainly not going to put brand new items on sale.  I realize you don't like it, but is there any real point to continue posting about it?

Sorry Pam, it's not necessary. I'm sure there will be a set on sale I don't have yet. Sorry.

Nice, I claimed one just for that beautiful bookshelf.

I love the bookcase! It's got the best stats (one more Fun that the best bookshelf in the base game), and it's really nice looking. I made my Sims a library with it.

Today's item is a Wet Suit... :( pretty worthless IMO

Just don't look at it as a wet suit but rather as a different male outfit that isn't totally ugly.  I rather like it.  Already had it, but hey, that's the way it goes sometimes.  Had already bought the Vanderberger stuff too, which I think really is awesome.  It's just kind of fun seeing what they'll offer.  That green sofa that came up was something I'd been looking at, yet never bought, so I was happy when it showed up.

New item just 17 minutes ago: Magical Double Bed. ;D 50 SimPoints, originally 100 SimPoints so half off.
Didn't have that one and it was so pretty I couldn't help but buy it.  :-X

That's part of the Fairy Sleep/Den set.  Really lovely furniture in that set.  I love the bed but even more I love the love seat!

I don't regret buying the bed since the rest of the furniture in the slumber set seemed rather meh. The mirror was nice though, but I already have a wonderful mirror from some other set that was on sale during Christmas.  ;D Anyhow, I checked out the outdoors set and now I'm tempted to buy it because of the wonderful love seat! And the fence and gate are really nice too! And there's a bird house... and a wheel barrow *shaking*.
 :-X I think I'm gonna wait a while before using my SimPoints though. And check out the daily deals, and hopefully there'll be some nice summer sale too! But knowing me, the frugal yet impulsive buyer, I will get that Faire Folk Outdoors set by the end of the week... *sigh* It will be perfect with my outdoor-living couple who has the Magical Double Bed.

I've used that love seat in a lot of different settings.  It always seems to be just right.

Today's daily deal is the Stanke Symetry Seater.  (sp?)  That would look really well in a modern house.

Simetry Seater from Collection Stäncké- it's a one-piece bar stool. Not my style, so I'm passing. I like the materials though, but the shape just reminds me of a sculpture or statue.

I'm suprised by how much EA reduced the prices of these items! By almost half the original price, it's so worth these fictional "SimPoints" at these low prices. You could get so many more items if you only bought from the Daily Deals.  :D

I don't see them as fictional. A 20.00 purchase is 2,000 points right? So that's .01 per point. I see it as is it worth .50 cents (50 points)?  If they have something for 1,500 points it's 15.00.
