mockingbird288z wrote: 20 Mar 2019, 05:33 I was putting together some images for the Architect Homes item thread and was doing the Wedding Belles one - I couldn't find the Industrial Fridge in my home store nor any in my inventory. So I built the wedding lot to grab one to take a pic and it wasn't there. Despite the fact that it was an item that was unlocked in the home store when purchasing the last prize and was initially in the kitchen when building the home it's been completely removed from the game.

Now, that probably has to do with the fact that it was actually the exact same item as the Activated Fridge that came from the Fitness Bundle only cheaper. They probably figured people wouldn't buy the bundle if they could get one of the items cheaper for "free". :roll:

So the Industrial Fridge is now a "Removed" item instead of a limited time item.
There is a fridge there in my wedding venue. I can't tell if it is the industrial fridge or the activated fridge, but it looks one of those. Is there not a fridge at all in your new build?

If you had built the Wedding venue before they removed the fridge from it you would still have it. You can tap on it to see it's name. The only difference between the two is the name and the price. If you tap on it and it does say Industrial Fridge if you place it in your inventory it will disappear.
I will try this as soon as I have a Sim available. I'll let you know what it says.

So they removed the Industrial Fridge but gave everyone the more expensive Activated Fridge? I did buy the fitness bundle so I've had the Activated Fridge before the Industrial Fridge and can't tell if it's been recently given to everyone.
I don't know why the Activated Fridge is available in my home store. I thought I got the ones in homes and inventory from building the Wedding Venue, because they look the same and usually I don't look at the names. Maybe, I got it from a mystery box?

It is the Activated Fridge in my wedding venue. It seems like they could have used that one for new builds as well.

I also bought the fitness pack, so I can't tell if it is there for those who didn't purchase it or not.

I just got on my game where I don't complete any events or buy anything and the Activated Fridge is there. So they just gave it to everyone at some point.

While scrolling through the closet of my female sim, I came across these dresses that a friend of mine doesn’t have. I don’t think it’s an in app purchase but could be, sometimes I buy things and forget I did: if anyone knows please let me know if they are limited time, in app purchase; or part of an event.

I have moved your post to an appropriate topic.

The dresses first showed up in 2015. See Mockingbird's post here.

I have those dresses too, but wasn't playing on Android or iOS at that time and don't have the other clothes. I know I got those dresses fairly recently. More than likely I got them from the deals tab. I purchased a few clothing packages from the deals tab. And I also have all 6 dresses and only played on Android.

Maybe kingsombra's talking about repeats? Like how we just had the Easter quest repeat. Or maybe the Easter items that are currently available in the home store?
