Hey, I'm wondering if anyone else is suffering from a glitch where you cannot physically pick and choose items from the fridge and/or bookshelf without having an item already in that Sims inventory? I'm on PS4.
That happened to me for the first few Sims days of my last household (to get me in the mood for C and D). I guess the reason it went away is because I had a repair item in there, or something like that.
I have had that happen a couple of times, too - I doubt my sims' inventories were empty as well because they always seem to have a load of stuff in there.
