What's That Button Do? Or, I Has A Perplexed . . .

Yeah, me too, I've never seen sims carry around multiple objects before paying. I assumed the Shopping Cart was originally intended for that purpose, but they didn't finish it, so it was vestigial.

Strange, I could have sworn after I made a selection at an owned business, that the sim would automatically go and pay for the item.  ???

I never have playable shoppers at my owned businesses thanks to JM's hack, but if I recall correctly, the shopping cart tab is used for stuff playables buy while not being played (so you can decide whether to keep that stuff or not as soon as you play them again).

Yes, but you can cancel the queue and add another goods to the shopping bag. I often let my Sims do their grocery shopping at neighbour's business. As long as I have something queued, Pay For Items will not queuestomp other actions.

It is not. The shopping cart is used for the items you have currently bought while playing, IIRC, but many things simply don't use it, and it's basically a vestigial feature.

Alex:
The only time I've ever seen it used is when purchasing actual objects at an owned business. I can't remember whether it still even uses this though. It's larely useless. Shame, as it would be nice to make multiple purchases of things such as clothes and stuff and have it all kept in there before paying for the lot at the register. It would save a lot of time.
