Grocery Delivery! SPOILERS

Thought we should have a separate thread for the new grocery delivery feature coming in Cottage Living.

The Sims 4 Cottage Living: All About Groceries and New Delivery Options
July 9, 2021 by Jovan Jovic

The Sims 4 Cottage Living Expansion Pack finally lets you purchase groceries
(or order them via phone!).

I’ve dived deep into this new feature thanks to the Early Alpha. Please note
that because it’s early version things are subject to change!

Groceries are finally making a comeback to The Sims 4! Whether you’re
mising basic ingridients such as Sugar and Flour or you’re out of Fruits and
Vegetables, you’ll be able to restock your fridge almost instantly with two
new ways of getting Groceries, which I’ll explain below.

This feature is extremely useful if you’re playing with the new Simple Living
Lot Challenge and are missing a few ingridients and food in your fridge and
inventory!

Purchasing Groceries
There are two ways you can get groceries – by purchasing them from a Grocery
Market Stall or by ordering the groceries online.

You can directly Purchase (or Sell) groceries at the Grocery Market Stall found
in Finchwick Neighborhood, right in the city centre.

At the stall you’ll be able to purchase fresh groceries including:

Cooking Books
Fish
Fruit
Ingredients
Vegetables

There are new set of groceries added every day so make sure you check up the
shop regularly! If you have multiple Packs installed that bring in new types of
groceries they also might get listed!

The Grocery Shop also lets you sell any groceries you have in your Sim’s inventory.
Simply click on the stall and select “Sell…” and choose the groceries from your
inventory that you want to sell immediately.

Is your Sim feeling confident enough to ask for a lower price on groceries? They
can Haggle with the Grocery Shop Owner and get a discount!

Ordering Groceries
There are three ways you can order groceries directly to your home: via phone or
by simply clicking the Fridge and selecting Order a Delivery. You can order the
groceries via phone > Order a Delivery > Grocery Delivery.

You’ll get the same Grocery Shop Menu with a similar selection of groceries that
can be delivered to your lot.

After you finish your order a deliverer will come to your home – in a mater of just a
few Sim seconds! They’ll find your entrance doorway and knock on your door until
you choose to Accept the Delivery. The deliverer will then place down the groceries
on the nearest surface in your home.

You’ll be able to choose whether to put the Grocery Bag in your inventory or Unload
the Bag. Unloading the bag will put ingredients in either the fridge and/or your Sim’s
inventory, depending or not some groceries need the fridge to remain fresh.

Zoomers Food Delivery
You might’ve noticed that there’s another new Food Delivery service called Zoomers
Food Delivery!

The Zoomers Food Delivery allows you to order local specialties and food. The more
packs you have installed the more local specialties you’ll also be able to order!

Similarly to Grocery Delivery, the Zoomers Food Deliverer will arrive at your doorstep
with the food bag. You’ll have to accept the delivery so that the deliverer can place
down the Food box to the nearest surface. Just like with groceries select Unload Delivery
Bag, drag the food out of your Sim’s inventory and enjoy your meal!
