If you start and play a lot of saves, the way @xochiquetzl_xkvn does it is the way to go. Saves a lot of time. If you play long term saves or don't want to go to the trouble of setting one up there is another way to get the originals in the new save.
The easy way for you to keep the original Goths for new saves is to keep them in your Library. Since the new saves now will give the new Goths, you can download them just once and just keep them there for the next time. They don't get deleted from your library when you put them in a game. The game gets a copy. If you have an old save with the originals in it, you could also save them to your library and use them. One thing though, you probably ought to delete the new Goths first then place the old Goths in their place. You might have to use the freerealestate cheat to give the saved household enough cash to buy the lot but you can use that at the map selection screen where you pick the lot. Once the perimeter around the lot turns green, you can place the sims at no cost to buy the lot.
Hope this helps.
What @CGrant56 said, although I mostly play longer saves with the odd shorter one thrown in (scenario/challenge/test). That said, it was super annoying to set up my holidays every time. Even if you mostly do longer saves, if you find replacing the Goths super annoying it might be worth it.
(Also, I just found it fun?)
