What packs are your must haves?

Get Together - I thought the club dynamic was fun and really helped me bring sims together to do activities as a group. The obvious ones like Dance clubs were super cool but you could also create clubs for mundane things like one Mansion owner I had ran a club called the Cleaning Staff and he'd start the event and they'd show up and start doing household chores. Works better than the butler. Another one was the Blood Bath club which was Vampires showing up at a Venue and their club activities involved drinking plasma and using vampire powers. It creates a pretty crazy atmosphere. I always mention that Windenberg is a wonderful town.

Island Living - It's just a beautiful place and it has a nice open feel. I think they caught the island living vibe pretty well and I really really love the mermaids. So yeah, my idea of fun is watching Sims fishing, swimming, and tanning.

Vampires - Vampires is the most complete Vampire experience I've ever seen released. 3 very different aspirations, a huge tree of powers and weaknesses that let you create different themed vampires, it included a massive victorian theme, and Forgotten Hollow is a genuinely well done. Whoever made this pack knocked it out of the park.
