@mathematics654  Yes, the store still works just fine.  I bought something yesterday.  (Sometimes it's necessary to clear your browser caches to get it to work, or to switch to Firefox.)  I believe you're looking for The Boardwalk:

It's quite pricey right now, but if you can wait a month, it will be offered on the Daily Deal for 969 points instead of 1,900.  Many of the more expensive items are available this way.  Check out the Sims forums threads about the Daily Deal and the cheapest way to own sets if you're interested:

    How do you know what date the sale? I can't find anything about dates in the pages, do you know the exact date?

      @mathematics654  On the Daily Deal page I listed, the second post has a link to the DD spreadsheet.  Here's the direct link:

      https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NIeS9yIMAw-fA7VhseLilqCOV5XfKoSJXwbyyKQLJP4/edit#gid=882235701

      The spreadsheet includes a list of deals in sequential order ("Current Rotation—18th Cycle," which has two cycles listed, and another of items in alphabetical order ("Sort by Item/Set").  The list in sequential order has the date and duration of each sale.  The other link (cheapest way to own compilations etc.) lists each available compilation, set, and venue, along with which deals to use to give you the cheapest price.  The Boardwalk is listed with the other venues in this post:

        Thanks @puzzlezaddict 🙂 

        apparently that sale happen in the middle of the night for me (UTC+3), so unless the sale will be also in other times of the day, I might need to go with the 1900 points price, I can't wake up in a work night at 3 a.m. to buy a game item
