    @Treana Thank you very much for your feedback. This currently working as designed, but we are looking at player feedback to see if improvements can be made.

    Thanks!

    Update:

    During sales a shopping cart will be made available.

    While on the Origin Store, click on the banner of the current promotion to browse games that are on sale - hover over your desired game to see the option to add them to your cart.

I wanted to bundle Sims 4 Outdoor Retreat with two other stuff packs and use the promo code to get 50% my entire order but I can't do that when there's no 'add to cart' option. Just a big ol purchase button. I don't want to make the mistake of buying them at full price like a friend accidentally did.. please tell me this is a glitch/bug. This new interface hurts me on an emotional level. 💔

      For YEARS now I and others have complained about this huge, unmitigated, stupid, idiotic and shameful purchasing process that I and others have started to boycott EA/Origin games. I have not purchased a single game from EA / Origin since they dropped the shopping cart! AND THEY DON'T CARE!!!!! EA/ORIGIN DON'T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS! THEY JUST WANT TO MAKE MORE MONEY AND MAKE IT THE MOST INCONVENIENT WAY POSSIBLE! 

      BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! BOYCOTT! TELL YOUR FRIENDS NOT TO PURCHASE FROM EA  ORIGN UNTIL THEY PUT THE $#%$#%^$#%^$#%^% SHOPPING CART BACK!!!!!!!

        I only redeem the free games on Epic Games Store, but even then, it adds the free title to your "shopping cart" at $0.00.

        This feature does not exist on Origin because EA does not see value in it. Being angry is unlikely to get them to change their position.

        All that being said, I am in the "Just make the shopping cart happen" group. If One-click-purchasing is such a priority, have it as a separate feature. It hasn't harmed Amazon.

    Thanks for the implied feedback. Unfortunately at this time you'll need to add the sims packs individually, and make sure to add the promo code every time. 


    @Maikuuh Perhaps if you reach out to support they can help to revert the purchase?

    You can contact EA Help via the EA Help website. Detailed instructions on how to use the EA Help service can be found here.

      eh, wth.. I think I'll wait for the Steam discount for Sims 3 before touching anything with Sims 3 from Origin atm. If you guys wanna compete with Steam.. make at least the Origin client non-efterbliven as a start.
