The Sims 2: How to Buy Electronics

When I first started playing the Sims 2, I was having a great time, so were my sims…Until! One of my sims had a peculiar aspiration: he wanted an MP3 player. Then he wanted a cell phone and a handheld video game. Befuddled, I took my sim to the community lots (the stores and park) and looked through their selection, and all I found was food, clothing, and computer games. I searched everywhere.

I went to the internet to do some research, and I found that you can buy MP3 players, cell phones, and handheld video games from things called vending kiosks at the community lots. I said, “that’s all well and good, I’ve searched the community lots high and low, and have found no such vending kiosks.”

After a little brainstorming, I thought, “If I don’t have vending kiosks in the community lots, I should put them there.”

Here are the steps I took to get a vending kiosk:

1.) Go to the neighborhood page

2.) Select a community lot (to edit the community lot)

3.) A vending kiosk is something you can buy for you community lot, so buy one and place it in one of your community shops or parks (all items for community lots are free, as are building materials, so you can just go bonkers). The vending kiosk looks like a large version of the Sims pay-phone, it looks like a…kiosk.

4.) Once you have placed the kiosk in the community lot, go back to your sim’s house, call a taxi and take your sim to the community lot that you placed the kiosk on.

5.) Buy your electronics!
