I actually just got my birthday code a couple of days ago and it does stack. It takes it down to $11.80 w/tax for me but I still can't decide if I really want this. It's been quite some time since I've played a Sims game.

That's what I did, as Steam had everything at the time (4 expansions, 3 stuff packs, and the base game) for either $80 or $90 during the Summer sale.

Sweet. Did you get yours day of your Birthday or few days beforehand?

My birthday isn't until the 17th. I got this on the 1st (along with various other companies' birthday promo coupons) so I figured everyone would get them on the 1st day of their birthday month but I guess that's not the case.

Got the 360 version.
Thanks CheapyD

After being registered so long, I think this is one of my first posts. I should really get in the habit of thanking the posters who save me so much money (see: buying games I'd never have bought just because they're cheap so I probably spend more money in the long run... >> <<).

In for one on PS3! Thanks to everyone here and especially you CheapyD!

Damn, mine's on the 8th. Guess I maybe screwed. We'll see come Wednesday if I should get it normal sale price or not then probably.

Hmmm. I'm really tempted here. Considering getting the PC one but really all I want is the Pets expansion. (I know, I know...) How do the expansions play on consoles? Are t hey stand alone and just overly emphasized on whatever the content for the expansion is?

Awesome. I saw this for 19.99 a while back on Amazon and regreted not getting it. So I jumped on this earlier.

I just bought a copy for pc, but can't find my purchase under the website's order history

They have a horrible site and it won't show up right away, if at all. You'll get your order though, they actually ship pretty quick.

I saw they patched the save glitch awhile back, but does anyone know if they ever fixed the glitches where a Sim's Wishes and Opportunities page would randomly go blank, or the glitch where a sound file would play on loop forever?

You can see these glitches in action here on the 360:

If those haven't been fixed, I would still recommend skipping this (at least on 360).

Anyway, you can't really beat the deal we got on Sims 3. It was free after my wife and I bitched to their customer support enough that they just refunded our money and didn't even ask for the game back.

Just ordered the PC version, Thanks CheapyD!

Thanks CheapyD!!

I've been waiting for this game to drop in price. Picked up two copies. One for me, one for my brother in NY. Many thanks!

might buy this tomorrow i would be all over this but been spending a lot with the gamefly sales if it was 9.99 would grab that tends to be lowest price point things go.

I think EA end the promotion early.

The 360 version is still $29.99 in the cart, with $6.99 shipping....so, no deal for me, I'm afraid....
