Does anyone have the greenhouse set? Do you like it? I have the greenhouse. I use the SwiftGro Gardening Station all the time. I have not used the window decor pieces very much but there are a lot of great builds on the exchange that use them. I also like the clothes. When I bought it on the DD for 1350 sp, back then, that was considered a great deal (sold out in 30 seconds). Then, the greenhouse was the first deal on the next rotation, but it was selling for 950 sp. The DD is definitely much better now - only a little over a year later. But in video game years, that is equivalent to 10 years. In this never-ending rotation, the greenhouse has been up for better prices - once for 570 sp and once for 456 sp. Edit - OK - OE is screaming at me to leave the computer.

I have found that when I do see the Bonus Simpoints button and after it no longer appears on that page (usually the Daily Deal page) I then randomly load other pages from the Sim store and quite often get another ad button or two. If I really am bored and spend the time at it, I systematically go through each section of the store and find more buttons on random pages. I really don't know when they finally stop. I usually just get bored and wander off after 20 or so. I once counted 30 (since they switched to the 5 points version) before they quit appearing. I've noticed this myself. I got maybe 7 ads just now on the MMAO page, then 3 more on the Store page, and now 2 on the DD page. It's very strange.

Does anyone have the greenhouse set? Do you like it? I've only used parts of it, but the roof pieces are pretty nice. I used them in one of my lots a while back to make a spa room, and also on my department store. (Sorry for the mediocre angles!) You can also see the Greenhouse Window used on some of the walls of the spa room as well.

Hoping I can build something someday soon that looks as good as what I've been seeing others post.

And just in case anyone has not noticed, the Greenhouse is part of the Best of 2012 Compilation and, if memory serves me right, makes the whole compilation FREE!!

It's our old friend the "over valued venue". Regardless of the Store price of a Venue set they are always valued at considerably more when CYS is calculated. Check out the advise on the first page of the 'official' DD thread.

Check out the advise on the first page of the 'official' DD thread. I... I'm not saying I don't believe it, but the Greenhouse is less than 1/3 the price of Best of 2012. Hard to believe it'd be valued at that much. DOES NOT COMPUTE lol. But if that works... that is unbelievable. Amazing. 0-o

One of my first store purchases was the greenhouse (and i use it all the time, I love gardening in game) and iirc the price of the 2012 went down to under 2k with CYS, but it wasn't free.
OK checking my purchase history: i did get the green house first then i got the magic stuff (was on the sale page at that time) and then the best of 2012 was free for me
