Guide for all items you can store things in?

Oh, well it plum that they hint you can keep things in them but you really can't. There is the Come and Get It Street Store table though, which seems super awesome. You can use it in a residential lot and put whatever you want in them, or so far it seems like you can put most anything in them. And you can put them in your inventory with the stuff still in them, and therefore, you can travel through households with it in your inventory. So you can put a bunch of plants for example in one and give it to a sim who is moving out, and many other things, without having them to be exactly in their inventory, making their inventory really large. And this table takes more than one type of thing, so you're not limited to just one type of item.

Yeah, it's too bad that the camping thing and the science thing don't have inventories that one can put things in. They would be excellent to store camping stuff and science-related equipment separately. But I did learn something from your post, haha, when you were the one asking a question. First of all, tho, the Street Store Table is still glitched, I think, in the fact that you can't start a Street Sale from it. I didn't see that it was fixed in the latest Patch Notes, but sometimes they forget everything they addressed.

But the way you described using the table, as a just storage item, sounds rather handy. I'm always looking for ways I can transfer things, from one household to another. It's usually passing things on the the kids, yeah, when they move out, as heirlooms, or just some furniture to get a start. I also like to have a separate place for my gardener Sims that do potions to store the ingredients for those somewhere that doesn't clutter up other inventories, too. I'll have to try the Table for this, and thanks for the ideas!

Yeah, I use it to store separate types of items in, like food that doesn't spoil in one, potions in another, etc. In fact, one of the very useful things I've found is that it makes it easier to drink potions you need to get skill up and needs fixed - snuggle fluster potion and need fixer potion. Instead of having these in my inventory, or on a shelf, I replicate them constantly on the cloning machine and then put them in this table. You can stock table twice in a row and if I have two stacks of potions in there, it will put a mix of one type of potion on the table then a mix of the second type of potion. That way, my sims always have a mix of need fixer and snuggle fluster potions on top of it. Too bad I can't put a third type of item in and have it generate among the other two on top or I would put the moodlet solver one also. But I use that to a lesser extent as the other two (mainly early on in a sim's skill building when the snuggle fluster makes them pee their pants a lot before I take the steel bladder reward), so I put the moddlet solver and food that doesn't spoil in another table and have a mix of those on top. The food I use less often too but I don't like to use a whole need fixer potion each time they get a bit hungry so this way they can eat some food and be good.

This table is amazing really so I was wondering what other storage items there were that maybe I was missing out on. But yeah, you can have it generate a mix of two types and that's nice, plus when you clear table it puts everything stacked in your inventory. This is nice because before I used to put a lot of things on shelves I wanted to have for easy use but the only way to get it all in inventory after was to put in household inventory, and from there I couldn't put the whole stack in a sim's or fridge's inventory. I would have to put things back one by one on a shelf or on the ground and pick them up - a real pain.

The only thing I wish is that the sims could drink or eat right off the table but somehow they can't. I just make sure to put it by a bar or another small table that I just drag whatever I want them to eat/drink to and then tell the to consume it.

It's cool that you can sell right off this table and mark up prices although I haven't really tried it with any success yet.
