How do I install from disc without download?

I bought a disc in a store, because I do not have access to the internet on a regular basis. When I went to install the game, it is forcing me to download it via Origin, online! Now, will I have to be online to play? Also, it's been downloading the game for 2 days now on high speed internet! How do I just get my game to play, without internet??? I bought it and want to play it!!! I don't care about going online to download more right now!!! I am so frustrated!!!!!!!  Please help!

    Ok. By the time I saw your post, I had already downloaded it through Origin. However, now it is saying it's installing and and it has been "installing" for over 10 hrs now.  Any suggestions for this? How can I just get it installed? I have now spent 3 days just trying to install this game and haven't played it once!

    Don't know too much about downlaoding through Origin.

    I'll check if some other helper can help you out.

    EA seems to have some server issues on thesims3 site right now. Maybe the download servers are affected to.

    Well, it has already downloaded. My issue now is it has been installing for 2 days almost!  Do you know if there is anything I can do to my computer to speed up that process? I don't think I even need internet now, to install, because I have unplugged it and it was still installing.  I do know that I have installed things on computers before and it has not ever taken this long...2 days!!
