Just a word of warning - - Walmart Prima Guide
iHateyou:
This post is just for idiots like me who:
1. Would buy a Prima Guide in the first place.
2. Would pick up a book the size of a paper back and expect it to have legible font size.
The guide Wal-Mart has is tiny and the printing is so small, I'd expect this book was made for insects to read. Don't bother with this edition unless you want to go completely blind. I will now have to march to Wal-Mart and stage a hissy fit in order to get a refund, because they do not like to refund books.

A better tip is don't shop at Waldemort. They are part of the commercial Axis Powers.

I think you mean BUY not BY.
But you needn't have posted this warning. Nobody here is dumb enough to believe a Prima Guide, let alone waste money on one. Oh, and I *do* pick up books the size of paperbacks and find they have legible font sizes (even without my glasses) - this from someone who started wearing bifocals a few years back.

I'm stupid enough to buy a prima guide. For the first time in my whole simming history I decided I'll have one.
Well I'm getting my Collector's Edition as a birthday present, so I thought why not waste my money on the Prima Guide.
Now I've been resisting the urge to cancel the order, because stupid GAME (game.co.uk) held it as "pre-order" till today's midday, now it's stuck on "pending". And my CE should be here tomorrow (also from them).

Fixed, and that was kind of my point. I can read paperbacks, and expected to be able to read this one. Oh well.
Yes, and the guide that comes in the CE is FOUR PAGES LONG and completely worthless. So yippee!
