You all gave so much great feedback on the wedding markets I thought I would also get your help on the kiosk I am making! This was made for filthy fabulous specifically, but I might release separately just because I think it will be useful for many other situations.

So the main ask that prompted me to make this kiosk was giving you all a place to sell your  foraged items, crafted artwork, etc. Essentially an alternative to going to the CL world or using those craft sales tables. This is also an "unmanned" kiosk meaning no npc runs it. The area behind the window is kinda hidden so it's implied someone is behind there, but you dont have to worry about hiring anyone etc.

It is open everyday from 9 AM - 3 AM (this is the hours for the other market stalls). I added a shift-click option to force open the stall if you are in a bind in the middle of the night and need to sell things.

In addition to selling I have add several other interactions to this as well. Please let me know if I covered all the items you want to buy/sell here and if there are other interactions you want added to the kiosk!

Selling

  • Paintings
  • Foraged items
  • Plants
  • Collectibles
  • Flowers
  • Craftables (flower arrangements, woodworking, fizzy drinks, candles, etc)

Buying

  • Cleaning solution*
  • Deodorant*
  • Mouth spray*
  • Body spray*
  • Locked CAS items
  • Violins/guitars (handmade versions)
  • Postcards

*These are custom items I made that are limited use items. Cleaning solution repairs furniture found in dumpsters and the hygiene products slightly improve your sims hygiene. Each have 10 uses.

Travel

From the map on the side you can travel for a $10 cost (as if it were a bus stop). This interaction is available at all times, even if the main stall window is closed.

Other Ideas

I thought it would be fun to let you buy a newspaper that had a chance of having a grocery coupon in it. Or I can let you buy a grocery coupon directly but kinda defeats the purpose?

I was also thinking of adding a public phone on the side opposite of the map which you can make calls on for a cost. Or I can make this a separate item completely.

So what did I miss? What are your other wants/ideas for this?

I am so excited to get this out for you all!

Sis, you are so talented & this is amazing! LOL, I know this Kiosk is already multitasking but I love the idea of both the newspaper/Coupon and the phone!

I love the idea of the phone and newspapers! I think for the newspapers it’d be fun if there were a crossword or other game that builds logic and raises fun! Maybe a discount for rabbit hole skill classes along with the grocery coupon. Maybe randomly could unlock recipes when read and no idea if this is possible but a classified where you can buy random items at a discount, some can be the thrifty Items from CL, you could have it mailed to you or pick it up via a rabbit hole

i was also thinking of having some random items available for sale too! and random days where stuff is discounted or sellable items will be worth more! i could add the crossword thing but it would be a simple animation and just build some logic as they do it. or i can also add reading comics for some fun needs.

phone as a seperate item or included? i guess i could also just add a slot where you could put the phone on it if you wanted...

I love this idea!! It will be helpful for a lot of situations, I think. I have some Sims that live in remote looking cabins and this fits in well with the vibe but will still allow them to sell their crafted items. You're the best!

I love the newspaper idea with the chance of getting a coupon in there. Maybe have a random time where something random happens. Like a sale on cleaning solutions or deodorant for example. Like a pop up 1 hour sale. Like the Kmarts use to have.. the blue light specials.

This looks amazing! I love the "bus stop" idea and yes, a phone on the other side could be fantastic. What about making the phone box that came with Cottage Living actually work?

This is everything. Could you make it provide wellness treats for pets? My homeless Sim's dog is seemingly forever poorly! He is homeless, he doesn't have a computer and doesn't want to travel to the vets every other day...

I totally agree I am setting up a Sim who will get burned out and move to a remote off the grid dilapidated property and so much stuff in the game is super modern. This would fit perfectly in a remote area

is there a possibility of adding a haggle option for selling and buying which can potentially raise the simoleons you get/spend or lower them?

What about the furniture from dumpsters? My sims are too poor to buy a store to sell it and I’m also just not a fan of the way retail works. In order for me to get rid of unwanted furniture I have to sell to the void and then adjust my $.

I love this! It's like a little newstand. :) I was wondering if the travel option could be integrated into adeepindigos travel mod? We could buy subway passes there. If not, a stand alone bus travel option would be awesome too. I'm so excited for this. All your stuff is awesome! :)

What if the newspaper also had a way to pull up the jobs screen or the odd jobs picker? Like a classified section in a newspaper. Do they even still have those? lol

This is great! I hate that I have to travel whenever I want to sell anything.

ravasheen

yup i added furniture from dumpsters!! i added the ability to sell almost all the dumpster finds :)

When I play rags to riches and first start out and have nothing, the hardest things to maintain are sleep and fun. Maybe being able to drink out of dregs in used espresso coffee cups you find in the dumpster (gross yes lol) or a juice you can make for energy and give you a bit of a jolt? For funzies maybe a swing made out of an old tire and a rope you can dangle out of a tree? If in the snow, an old bit of cardboard you can 'sled' on. Just some ideas, I am sure you are being inundated but seriously, these mods you are creating are the most useful and best mods out there!

what about those "waterfall in a bottle" items from jungle adventure? they could be useful... thanks for all your hard work!!

I think all the newspapers should have coupons. I don't know how fraught with work it would make this but maybe the coupons themselves are randomized. If you get a coupon you don't need, maybe you could trade it back to the kiosk.

Hello Rava and all lovely people here. First of all I hope you all are safe and healthy. Let's pray for freedom in the Ukraine BUT also for the freedom in the world. Well, regarding your questions Rava: Would it be possible to add medicine from Adeepindigo her "Dental Care Mod (v4.8)" and also the "Healthcare Redux: v2.8 " mod? You can find both here https://www.patreon.com/posts/50316018 and here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/49278885. I know that a lot of sims players who love a realistic gameplay use her mods (me as well). Of course I don't know if that can be done (it also requires a cooperation with Adeepindigo on both sides), but it would be great. Lovely regards from Austria

Hi Rava! Just watched your youtube video I love this stall! And the grocery coupon idea! Will we be able to sell oversized crops & ingredients/craftables from cottage living at this stall? Which would be amazing! I noticed your stall it closes at 3am vs the stalls in cottagae living that close at 7pm. I always miss it XD

mightypistachio (Rhyan - TheyThem)

The grocery coupon thing is so cool! I also think you could turn that idea into kind of like food assistance like in the US we have EBT - That could probably be a whole separate mini mod though. Also, the ability to buy a snack would be cool, too! Like a soda or chips. I'm so looking forward to when this is ready for release! :)
