The only stuff pack that I haven't arrquired yet is Glamour Life stuff and that's only because every single file I've found on TPB has been labelled as having a bloody virus. Is it worth getting or should I just not bother to keep looking fpor a clean one?
It was my favourite SP until IKEA and M&G came out. (The quartertile cheat alone made M&G my favourite SP ever.) I use GLS objects quite a lot. PJs and coats are nice too. Certainly not worth to pay for, but worth enough to acquire. There is still one available on MiniNova. No mention of virus in comments.
I never gave mininova a thought. Much appreciated, arrquiring now.

FT allows you to age up three townies per Sim, but never had a chance to figure out how to do it. Probably helps to have non-adult townie friends at the birthday party, which I never did.
I get the dialog inconsistently, and with different sims listed. Often there are townie sims the aging sim doesn't even know listed. I've only used it to age up the children to teen. My current 'hood has a high enough number of kids now that they always have several choices of relatives and neighbors to invite over after school.
No party needed. Just "Grow Up".

My advice is either buy cheap or don't buy at all.
To be honest though the only reasons I buy them (at ridiculously cheap) are that I'm a collector by nature & I participate in the house of fail comps.
While nothing is as free as arr'ing, if you are uncomfortable with that, Amazon did just drop Apartment Life down to $14.99.

Not so much unable or unwilling as completely useless at installing arred proggies that aren't pretty much point & click. That & the p2p proggies give me the willies. Am willing to provide blanks/replacement costs to anyone willing to ship me anything I don't have, however, I am the queen of bargain hunting & have recently purchased most for less than the price you quoted me. Plus I enjoy haggling. The listed price is rarely the price I pay for anything.
*Edited to fix typos with brief interlude to beat the shit out of the lappy for being such a dick about this spelling & punctuation shit.

Well, if you live on Mt Kilimanjaro, maybe a small shipping fee.. ::)

SHIT, SON
HOW DID YOU DO THIS
And how did you determine who was the reporter when they came? Is there a distinguishing characteristic, or did you somehow view their tokens? Or can one simply make them temporarily selectable and see an action in their queue that is indicative of a reporter visit? Perhaps the reporter NPC is reused? (In which case, I think I shall put mine in a slightly more descriptive outfit.)
"Beverly, I want to talk to you about one of your recent evaluations, 'Joe's Backyard.'"
"Awful place. Just a park bench, nothing else. Wrote a scathing review, and the place closed its doors shortly afterwards. What's the problem?"
"The problem is the million-simolean admittance fee you charged on the expense account..."
Now, admittedly, I haven't done it recently, so I don't know if it's still the case, but one of the things I'd noticed (And that a number of people complained about ) was that the Reporter would often be, if not /the first/ one of the first few Sims to visit a newly-opened business.
So it was just a matte of starting a home business, slapping down a Ticket Machine, setting it to charge hundreds of thousands of simoleans, and ignoring it until the Reporter showed up, and paid the money.
No Loyalty is lost for failing to dazzle a Sim past the ticket machine. I suppose I could have made the effort to keep the reporter on the lot more than an hour. Never seemed necessary, so I'd just get the huge amount of money, let the Reporter wander around the empty backyard for a awhile, wave cheerily at her when she gave a bad review, and shut down the business.
Since I didn;t have No redundancy in when I installed OFB, my neighborhood contains three reporters, but I've played enough businesses to recognize them all on sight by now. (Dolphin's Business Adjuster Hack can be set to throw up a dialog when a reporter appears, or you can just set the Dress code of the lot to something other than Everyday with Pescado's Customer Selector, as Reporters seem to ignore lot dress codes)

Venues can make insane money. Lately, though, I've been setting them to ridiculously cheap and/or ceasing to charge customers when the owner leaves. Mostly the latter. It takes too much time to get a date or casual group that contains non-resident Sims into the venue otherwise.
I'm looking into fixing that, actually.
