When do packs usually go on sale on Origin?

I have purchased every pack (except My First Pet stuff, for obvious reasons..) and I don't wait for a sale. Never have. I want Get Famous because it does look quite fun but for the first time i'm not willing to pay $51.99 canadian because it's not something I ABSOLUTELY need but I do want eventually. I would like to get it on discount. Does anyone know how often Origin has sales? I've seen expansions go for 50% off. Anyone know how often the 50% sale happens?

I know other websites have it on sale too, but I am not sure how they work, or where to go for them i've never bought TS4 packs anywhere but origin.

If there is another thread with this discussion please let me know :)

    Or find a good online site and pay less, that’s what I did for Get Famous.


    What site did you use?

    Go online and find discounts. I got my Get Famous copy for only 20 euro's.


    Which site did you use?
  • well azmon has sale right now and for black friday i didn't get my game made for minor mistake but azmon is cheaper then origin trust me i saw the price.
  • This might be a stupid question, but if I have purchased TS4 & GTW, GT, Vampires from Origin, if I buy Pets, Seasons, and GF from Amazon or Target or whatever, will it still work? I didn't realize it was being sold anywhere outside of Origin. I was waiting for Black Friday to purchase the latest three packs because I assumed they'd be on sale, but I'd like to compare prices with other stores IF I can in fact buy them elsewhere.
  • I'm waiting for a sale, too. I already bought Get Famous but there are a few stuff packs that I'm looking to buy.
  • I'm trying my best to wait for Get Famous to be on sale at Target. I don't think I can wait more than a week, I want it now

    They will
  • There's a sale right now on Origin. Game packs are 20% off and expansions, except for Get Famous, are 50% off. I'm thinking about picking up Dine Out and Parenthood.
  • Does Origin ever have discounts on expansion packs >50% or should I get them now they are 50% off?
