the kit option is still likely to be a worse deal, since stuff packs can often be purchased for $4.99 during a sale.
That's very true. But it's also true that TS3 store items regularly went on sale, not to mention those set completion deals. So if that holds true for the TS4 kits, we could see opportunities to buy kits for just a couple of dollars.
Also, I haven't seen anyone point this out yet, but TS3 store sets varied in price depending on what was actually in them. Sure, there were some one or two item purchases, but they were a fraction of the cost of the larger sets. One of the many things we still don't know is whether all kits will have the same price, much less what that actual price would be.
There is less gameplay in the vacuum kit than in laundry day. At least laundry day offered the possibility for doing laundry without electricity, and they gave the wash basin and the clothes line. So far it looks like you can only banish the dust bunnies with a vacuum. Whichever way you look at it there is less offered for your bucks. And there are no hairs. Also comparing with TS3 is not a good idea. TS3 store offered a lot of gameplay items that were traditionally in game and left very little gameplay in the EPs and Stuff packs. And some of those things only came packaged with other things I didn't want and were too expensive. TS3 Store is not a good model to follow. Some people say they watched ads, for points, but that choice was limited to a small number of countries.
