Unable to Pick up Dirty Dish Left on Sidewalk & Mail is Stuck in Inventory

I should have mentioned this happened in the Sims 4. Sorry. The envelope (assuming it's a bill) that is stuck in a Sim's inventory is stuck. There is no option to pay bills when I click on the mailbox. You cannot even click on the envelope that is in their inventory to see what it is. If anyone has come across this little glitch, please let me know if you know the solution. Thanks.

    Thank you for directing me to the forum via the link you provided. Seems it's a bug but the game should clean it up. My Sim likes to take his food outside, so I moved the outdoors chair so it's not too close to the sidewalk. When he would see a neighbor, he would carry his food, then plop it on the ground to start up a conversation. This is without me even controlling him. Next time I see him get up to carry his food somewhere, I'm going to point to a chair to make him sit down. Whew! These smart Sims are a hand full. As for the mail stuck in a Sim's inventory, I'll just ignore it. Hope it's not a bill. Thank you again for your help.

      your very welcome 🙂

      sims can be a handfull at the best of times espically if you have a game like mine full house 8 sims  😕mileyvery-happy:

      silly sim wait is there no table to put the plate down on not that wouldn't  make a difference though as even with tables plaenty of presses my sims still put plates in the oddest of places or wash dishes in the batroom while another sims is in the shower *hellooo sim...kitchen sink NO ONE is there use it *  pity about it being a bug  the game imo too should clean it up (like sims 3  there was a clean up at 3 am   wellll that worked most of the time )

      i think if it was a bill then your household would be getting cut of with power etc  in one of my earlier TS4 games one of my sims had a stuck envelope  thankfully it wasn't a  bill same apperance as a bill but it seemed to be a return item of one of  a metal he found and sent it in to be turned into some sort of focus cube crystal (decor item) i know there is a thread on the envelope stuck in inventory issue over on the TS4 bug forum  and crin has a known bugs thread might be something there that can help
