I bought 2 stuff packs and 1 game pack a few days ago... paid £9.99 for laundry stuff and now it’s 5.99 ?

only packs I need now to complete my collection is Romantic Garden and MFPS. Worth paying £5.99 each for them?

Romantic Garden is one of my favourite stuff packs so thumbs up for that one. MFPS however is one of the two I'm still missing myself (the other is Luxury Party) and personally I'm gonna hold off to get them later. The sale is good but I feel like I got enough new content to explore already.

There probably won't be another sale for stuff packs this low until the end of next year.

Thanks for letting us know! Does anyone have any idea how long the sale generally lasts? I'm not sure what people may have gotten me for Christmas, so I wanted to wait to buy any until the day after :)

I think on Origin the sale runs through Jan 11th

I think this is the lowest SPs have been since the ORIGIN50 sale in Sept 2016. I've been fairly diligent with checking for sales on SPs and have been waiting all this time for another 50% sale. I went ahead and caved - I bought Vintage Glamour and Laundry Day because those were the two I wanted most.

The 50% off sales seem to run twice a year sometime in July and then December. I just didn't wait long enough 5 freaking day short. If this was retail I could get my extra 10 buck back and purchase something else. I tried talked to two people at EA - nope, nada nothing they can do - I call BS

Always thought I'd go for the fitness and bowling packs if there's ever a sale, but I ended up getting the fitness and luxury party packs instead. I never had any interest in this, but now that I have Get Famous I thought they might go well together. I'm still missing about half of the stuff packs, so I might get a couple more before the sale ends :-)

BTW, after I bought the three packs, the game wouldn't load. It almost gave me a heart attack. I repaired the game and I was able to load it then. Whew!

Yes!!!! Now I can get some SPs Im missing. They never have a sale and I refuse to pay retail price B)

Getting 40% off an SP sure does help too and sometimes patience helps. Sales on SPs are rare and when it happen get while you can.

I'm considering getting city life because I miss apartments so much!! And for half price I figure you can't go wrong! Also considering throwing in some stuff packs but we're moving in the new year and money is tight even if stuff packs are so cheap!
