No Playable Shoppers

Could be. Could also be that the price that you have the item set to on the lot is lower than the re-sale price the Sim in question has to deal with. This is most likely if you have the Wholesale perks, since they reduce the restocking fees.
So my Sims can make good deals and bad deals, depending on how I run my shops. But why should I always stop them then?

this hack is for if you want to stop them, don't use it if you don't mind your playables shopping at your businesses.
I tried it out and ended up removing it. I like seeing my male playables show up at the hoods whorehouse (all female visitors have been banned by TJs visitor controller, they will get their own to visit soon)

Well, you see, I was trying to work out if I want them to visit or not...

The fact of the matter is that playable sims buying things is irreversibly broken. Firstly, they buy these things at an illogical loss, meaning your money is simply going down the tubes, since anything they buy cannot be returned for their money back.
This sounded to me like it was always a bad idea to allow them to do it.

Well, do remember that you can keep this in and still allow certain playables to go shopping by sticking the FFS Money Order in their inventory as a token. That way your more wealthy sims can waste their money while the poor and lower middle-class ones don't. ;)

Would it be possible to add an object that overrides the prevention of playable shoppers if present on the lot? I mind if my playables are buying cars and plasma TVs, but I'd like to still allow them to show up at owned venues and restaurants.
