Re: All in retail shop stuck

If you've made tea in the tea maker and then set it for sale with the prepared tea still in it, that may be why your Sims are glitching. Sims are pushed to grab a cup, but prevented from getting one because the tea maker has been locked behind the for sale mechanism. 

If you want to try selling individual cups of tea:

Make the tea

Have your Sim grab a cup and immediately cancel them drinking it

As soon as they set it down mark it for sale

Put the cup in the display

Will this work? Maybe. I don't know if Sims will be pushed to buy a single cup of tea. Sims build interest the longer they're in the store and the more your Sim uses the retail interactions on them. 

Once you've made the tea and set the cups for sale, you should put the tea maker somewhere that is inaccessible to customers. Otherwise Sims will just make their own tea.
