Of course if there is something more expensive in the shop you can still show it to them, they may say that they'll look at it, it just depends on whether you can afford the loss of stars if they either don't want to look or don't buy it.  For example, if they're a very loyal customer, then you can possibly rake in more cash this way.

I'm getting ruthless now and use Assess Desire and drag the little #$@!$ over to whatever they are most likely to buy.  I then dazzle them and make them buy the item.
I've never used assess desire, I can just arbitrarily show anything to anyone and make them buy it. :P

Or you can do the real easy thing and only sell one item per shop.  That way, every sim walking in will walk in wanting to buy the same thing and you won't have to putz around with Sims who want something that someone else just bought and you haven't yet restocked.  I mean, it's not like your playable Sims are really ever going to go to these stores for something useful.

That's not true, really. I've had sims that come into a shop stocked with gobs and gobs of something....so that they can go to the ONE item in the store identical to every other item near it...and moan about how that one item has not been restocked yet...perhaps because there's about 80 others exactly like it. Even with stores with different things, meh. A sim either buys whatever the hell it wants, or it buys whatever the hell I tell it to buy if it can't make up its mind. The process is simple: Show Item to Sim, Dazzle.

Or at all, if you have no playable shoppers.
