Do we think Kits will ever go on sale?

I seriously doubt it. Many people spend more than that on a cup of coffee or tea at a coffee house or tea room. I don't mean that like, "Dude, its so cheap" Just, when people spend more on less daily, many are going to spend the 5 for "permanent" content without blinking and EA's less likely to lower the price for those who won't.

I seriously doubt it, but who knows? Maybe after a few years.

Sales on Origin this year, as a whole, have been disappointing.

Absolutely. I was rather irked to find that in the current Origin sale, Cottage Living is only 38% off. I steadfastly refuse to buy an expansion pack at more than half price. I'm hoping it will be 50% off during the Christmas sale this year.

I really doubt it. Even Stuff Packs going on sale is rare. I haven't seen kits be included in bundles yet either. Reason why Simmers wanted a $5 pack I guess which they pretty much told Gurus cheapest they would want to spend on a pack so thus kits were formed.

$5 isn't expensive but when they drop 9 kits that total practically the cost of an expansion with significantly less content (not just in CAS and Build/Buy content but no new world or gameplay either. And Bust the Dust is the only "gameplay" kit out of 9). So yes, in the grand scheme of things, $5/Kit is extremely overpriced when compared to the content of other packs.

Drop them to $2 or $3.

And I understand the exchange rate but here in Canada they're $7 CAD.

I purchased all of my regular SPs for $4.99. So, to me, a kit with roughly a 1/3 of the content of an SP should be priced at most at $2.50.

Actually, considering the rate of inflation this year alone, we should be thankful the price hasn't gone up! Fully expected it, but was pleasantly surprised. :)

Honestly, I am of the opinion that kits were created in part as a means for EA to raise the price of TS4 "stuff" packs without having to actually raise the price of a full standard SP. I could be wrong about that, but in any event, as I mentioned before, I agree with @sims2freak737 & @NorthDakotaGamer, that none of the available kits are worth $4.99 & I personally will not be supporting them at that price. However, others are free to disagree, buy & enjoy them. :)

Highly doubt that, but it would be a dream if they get a discount of 50% bc I might buy the two CAS kits at a price of one. But we know EA...

Interesting to see the naysayers...
They've been giving free trials & bug lists are plentiful. Trust, kits will be marked down if the game keeps going. I've patiently not paid full price for most of the packs I have. And I've got 'em all, except batuu.

Maybe in the future they'll bundle them, but $5 individually feels like an awfully low price to discount on.

Discounted, no, but I expect at some point they'll allow people to bundle them for less
