This is my plan. I have already gotten the Deep Fryer for 140 SP on the DD (cheapest price on the DD). Now, I am just waiting for:#948 Brunch at Old Mill 442 SP#173 Ice Cream Maker 250 SP#334 CowPlant 186 SP#892 Killer Classics FreeI only have 889 SimPoints to spend, so if everything goes according to plan, then I would have 11 SimPoints left over.Both the Deep Fryer and Ice Cream Machine are part of the Fabulous Fiesta! collection. So, I may be able to get a huge deduction in price, or maybe the whole set will become free on the DD?

11 ) Homecoming / 779 / 1900 / 59% / 2 hours This is coming up for sale soon @jojie4. What is the percent you own?

Yes @Jojie4, that's the same thing I was doing before I saw that I needed more points and managed to get a purchase through Origin. I just timed out trying to gift you the green dress. I'll keep trying but would you prefer something from a set that goes up when you're awake that you have more from? I'm pretty sure I got Everyday Teens easily by using this compilation. Do you have anything from this one? https://store.thesims3.com/setsProductDetails.html?productId=OFB-SIM3:43480&section=UpSellETA The prom stuff went through and I just picked one thing from Everyday Teens that I like having in my game. Have fun, good luck!

Thank you @tallcoolone. That's a hard one, but my poor sims are rather desperate for new prom clothes, so the green dress would be amazing either way.

@jojie4 Just remember that when purchasing a set in which you do not own anything, you have to purchase an item (preferably the cheapest one) first to start the CYS function. This will give you 10% off the price of the set plus 90% off the full price of the item you own.

You may also be able to use your Book of Spells along with the cauldron to Enchanted Dark Dealings really low DD#18 162sp. It says DD#19 for Enchanted is 260 sp, but the book should be worth 355sp's at 90% of it's original value. That makes more magic free. Then with the cow plant (or any 180sp), it makes killer classics and the entire January 2012 free. I think that may end up 2sp over, so if you want to get some of the other items in the compilation on daily deal, that total 200sp , for the 90% (not in total spent, just in full value), you also have the option of the rest of the "magical" items plus a couple of clothing pieces. I'm not sure if you might be interested in that for your play style. This deal might also be able to be used for best of 2012, since you own the gardening station. It would probably depend on complete your set prices. That one is a bit complicated for me, though. If it pulls it to free, you could also get the teppanyaki grill and the dining set that goes with it. It would depend on your cys price for best of 2012. Just another (best of being possible) options that might work. I have heard the greenhouse and grill alone can make cys free for best of 2012, so the gardening station might work with the bundle. Or it might work with the full itadakimasu. But someone with more knowledge than me on how that compilation works would need to chime in.

Can I get any more free items out of this plan?

@waterywatermelon I just realized you are the original poster as well. I got it confirmed that the kitchen thing for ice cream will work.

* Haute Hacienda Kitchen, 71/608 sp
- DD #189: Talavera Tile Wall Mirror (27/81)
- DD #400: Talevera Tile Island (28/68)
- DD #735: Cantina Canister (16/50)
- DD #845: Haute Hacienda Kitchen (free)

I know it isn't quite as simple as just buying the ice cream maker, but it isn't a ton of deals to watch for, in a single rotation, but it does make room for another set/compilation.

- DD #65: Level Up Collection Free
- DD #92: Technophobe no more Free(?)
- DD #145: Edwardian Expression Kitchen - Graceful Gelatin Taste and Style Sculpture (11/25 sp)
- DD #336: Man Cave Compilation Free

I was stalking this thread last night and, boy did I get confused! I did send a few gifts out (finally) but wasn't sure if it helped much on the cascades, lol.
I need you all to be blunt about what you need to get that awesome cascade you are working on. I am all for anyone using the DD to achieve that. It saves both of us loads of simpoints :D
Let the cascades begin?

@FairyGodMother Thanks a lot!

Now, the Fabulous Fiesta! set is 100 SimPoints, simply because I now own:

- Haute Hacienda Kitchen - Old Town Refrigerator (purchased with free bonus SimPoints back in the day on the DDs)
- Sizzle Baby Pro Deep Fryer (purchased recently on the DDs at lowest price)
- Frost-Bite Pro Ice Cream Machine (Store gift item from you)

@FairyGodMother Well, I did the calculations a bit and noticed that if I choose to buy DD #189: Talavera Tile Wall Mirror (27/81), then I might be able to get Fabulous Fiesta! for free; and I will still be able to afford the Morning of the Garden Dress later. However, if that is not available for free, then I may have to purchase Talevera Tile Island (28/68) or even the whole cascade, to get the set free. In that case, the remaining amount of SimPoints wouldn't be enough to cover the Palace of Versailles Morning in the Garden Dress 75 SimPoints.

I might as well just save the remaining SimPoints for the Morning in the Garden Dress, working towards the Palace of Versailles set, instead and forget about the Fabulous Fiesta! cascade. That isn't worth it, now that I already have the Ice Cream machine.
