Well you're further along than I am. Where did you find a place to buy equipment? Sent my sims to the jungle. Nothing to do but excavate, got bit by spiders and stung by bees........ never came across a store, other ppl, jungle animals, nothing.

Store is at the marketplace. You click on a table were the npc is to buy stuff. You can also click on the table to buy items from pets and outdoor retreat but I don't remember the name of the interaction.
