Gripe About Sims 3 Store

Sims 3 LogoWhen I first started playing Sims 3, I was a bit dismayed by the sparse content with regards to Buy Mode. However, since you can customize just about anything to your heart’s content, I didn’t complain too much.

I saw the Sims 3 Store as a way to pick and choose what extra stuff you wanted in your game without having to go all out and buy a Stuff pack. Let’s all admit it, Stuff packs got a bit out of hand with Sims 2 – it seemed like every other month a Stuff pack was being released.

For the most part, the Sims 3 Store has served me well.

I’ve picked up a couple of cute hairstyles and a few shirts and dresses that I thought would look fetching on whatever Sim I was working with at that time.

But one thing really bugs me about the way the store is set up – the search functionality.

While there is a “Sale” tab where you can find items that have been discounted, there is no way to search for exclusively free items. And you know, when I’m short on Sims Points, I don’t want to have to go through each and every category in the hopes of finding a free item; there are a lot of categories!

Would it really be such a pain to add a “Free” tab under the “Sale” tab?
