I wish the sims had a filter that separated things into price ranges. Sometimes I’m looking spend a specific amount of money.
There might be a mod for that
Yes, I was think about that, would be nice.
@@ameliaborkacki6364 There’s always a mod for that
Kayla at 7:30 - "You know, this game could really use some more free things." Kayla at 10:41 - "Honestly, it is a miracle that there are this many free things in The Sims 4."
@@mikalaharrington8611 What are you talking about? No one needs to pick a side. There really are a lot of free debug objects. I played Sims 2 before where you had no such thing. I think it's good.
@@CarryCherry92 if you don’t agree, then there is no reason to comment tbh. we obviously feel two different ways. that’s that
@@mikalaharrington8611 So one can only comment if they agree? You must be fun at discussions.
@@CarryCherry92 i’m just saying there is no use in going back and forth on the matter, it’s nothing to argue or defend
@@mikalaharrington8611 It was no back and forth until you replied. I just commented with my thoughts on the matter. But whatever...

$50 for a pile of cardboard, toilet paper, or a door… clearly priced appropriately.
Or a spot ceiling light!
I spent 150 simoleons on a pomegranate yesterday lol
I'm sorry this is a pet peeve of mine, but it's SIMOLEONS, not dollars. They're clearly not equivalent to a $ value, of any kind (USD, CAD, AUD..) Because objects such as a single apple costs 3 Simoleons. An apple is never going to be $3 for a single item. Closer to about 48c (USD) for a single apple. Simoleons, the made up currency we use in game, are slightly inflated above dollar value. So for example, the cardboard dancefloor is 50 Simoleons. Using the example of the apple as a measure, this would be equivalent to about $8.30 USD, for the cardboard boxes dancefloor. Of course the Sims catalogue pricing isn't consistent, but it's not "overpriced" as many simmers say, forgetting that the currency isn't just defaulted to USD. The Sims universe has all made-up geography, holidays, terminology, AND currency, etc., so that it's easy to enjoy for people from all cultures across the world. It's purposefully vague and unspecific. It really bothers me how many simtubers have the tendency to say "omg this thing is 300 dollars?" when browsing the game catalogue, instead of saying Simoleons. It's probably just me being weird and I know it's a nitpick, but it's always been something that frustrated me.
@@Lottienn I put $ because I don't know the symbol for Simoleons. I never said overpriced, I said appropriately. Perhaps that isn't even the correct word but my point was that a pile of cardboard costs the same as a door - which is just odd! I wouldn't care if certain things were more expensive if there was some consistency to how things are priced. Perhaps it is just my western/north american perspective on what things should cost, but I just find it so confusing the way they have priced things and how things have gotten so much cheaper in newer packs for similar items to what already exists.
@@hedgerow.homestead I thought your "clearly priced appropriately" was sarcastic. Anyways, like I said, the pricing of the catalogue IS inconsistent. But the reason is because of community complaints about the catalogue being overpriced. The devs have made newer objects cheaper in response, which has led to overall inconsistent pricing. But yes, this myth of the objects being "overpriced" comes from a very western perspective where many assumed Simoleons should be equal value to USD. It's interesting how nobody seems to make the same comments about the job wages in the game. 28 Simoleons per hour for a Barista? I mean, that's clearly not a USD$ value. That would be more like $12 per hour surely. But yeah, again, inconsistent conversion rates. I think it's just best to accept that Simoleons have their own economic value as a pretend/fake currency. People talking about how expensive/priced objects are in the game has never made sense to me and always bothered me just because to make these comments, we need to assign a real-world currency value as reference and that doesn't work. Don't mind my unnecessarily in-depth rant about Simoleons, like I said just a personal quirk of mine that the discussion around currency in the sims bothers me.
I enjoy the Rick astley cutout as a Christmas tree replacement
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
Would Be funny if She decorates rick 😂😂
This was literally the first thing I saw in this video 😂
The Christmas tree rick-rolled us! 😲 (lol no I watched when she said she'd take it down... so annoying her stream got mad about it. Loved all the people in comments offering support for keeping it up longer!)
if u think abt it, you don't really need a stove and a counter bc you could just use quick meals like peas to fill hunger. there's also tents in debug that cost 0 simoleons that function from the sims sessions, as someone who doesn't have outdoor retreat I use them a lot for speepovers.
This is true but sims get the moodlet from eating too many quick meals
Well no stove but with a counter and they can live off salad and not get the moodlet.
@@klatskyn true I never thought of it like that.
@@klatskyn smart
They added tents to the base game?
"You do need a bed, and like, a toilet." Also known as the pee bush. 150 for a toilet? Nah, you get fertilizer, Nancy.
smart!!
Is that like, 450 simpletons though? The bed and toilet she is using cost less than 200.
@@felbarashla Build it in Windenburg, there'll be a pee bush down the street somewhere
@@felbarashla The 'Open Air Natural Toilet' from jungle adventure is only 50 simoleons.
I would love to see Kayla go to town making a house look as gross and disheveled as possible and challenge people to fix it up, sort of like the reverse of “fix me LilSimsie”. I think she’d have a lot of fun finding all the broken, tatty furniture and the gross wallpapers and putting them into a build!
Great idea!!
SHE DID IT!!
If you have the jungle adventure installed you can get the outdoor toilet/shower stall out of debug for free.
Very good point. I often forget that that one is 0 simoleons.
I had a hermit dude and his dog living in a tiny lean-to and just used a fire pit outside for his meals. He could grill up hot dogs and also fish that he caught in the pond. I always wonder why people don’t do it on rags to riches challenges. Yes, they can occasionally get burned by starting the fire, but that’s better than lighting their house in fire with a stove 😂
How much does the pit cost?
Yeah i always use the fire pit!
Stanley Humphrey still couldn't afford this house with his cross stitching money
what if instead of building a shack and using free terrain outside, how about put down a tent and then use 1000 simoleons to make the outside a functional luxury campsite :O im gonna try this
I can say from experience that it is in fact possible for brick walls to crack like that. XD
But wouldn't the cracks form between the bricks, rather then through them?
@@limiv5272 Sometimes the space between is more sturdy than the brick itself.
@@limiv5272 As stated by someone else, sometimes the bricks are weaker than the cement in between. It also has to do with the way pressure is put on the wall. At my job they had some ground that had moved underneath the building, causing a shift in the pressure so several walls ended up getting cracks in them. Even going through the bricks, much like how Simsie placed them in the video.
You can actually get rid of the counter and stove and rely on quick meals for extra money and much more pain!
Having the counter is still nice for salads (lol though the latter works for a broke college life. Can get rid of the fridge and buy that cooler your Sims can sit on for only quick meals.) I did wonder how much the pit from Island Living cost... I guess it was the same as other "grills" so she didn't bother. But then she could also put it outside and have a little more space! And it takes a while to cook so there's the trade-off.
They can live off salads and fruit salads so they don't get the "too many quick meals" moodlet
@@j.stanley1669 The pit from island living is actually 1000 simoleons! I have no idea why they did that it's ridiculous, it's literally a hole in the ground with some wire over it, they need to make it way cheaper it makes no sense. Also the DIY shower/tub is ridiculously expensive too, they really need to do a price check of the catalog and fix things like that.
@@samanthakate2117 OMG definitely. I can see making them comparable prices just for some kind of game balance, I guess (with regards to the Off the Grid challenge) but making them more expensive is terrible.
I’d like to see one of these challenges without debug, but it’s probably impossible
i agree! i've always liked watching lilsimsie's challenges, but i heavily want to see her not using any debug furniture/plants/decor since debug is often the "go to" for budget/cheapest house build challenges. like my curiosity is so high on how she'll do the challenge given the sims limitations without accessing the cheat/debug 🤔
You could probably do it, but you would have to do rags to riches and dumpster dive for days and hope you get lucky.
@@felbarashla it would sound super interesting tho! similar to making 8 sims fit a tiny/micro home. i know it's difficult and can seem impossible, but seeing a different workaround other than cheating the walls, and with other challenges, seeing how to make the challenge work without using debug sounds like such an interesting content 🤩
I’m so sad that you felt you had to remove your tree in the corner…so pretty in the background!🥰My mother-in-law has always kept her tree up until January 6th which is the “12th day of Christmas”!
Kayla: " it looks like a hat." Me: "a crazy, funky, junky hat."
If you add another roof flipped around in every roof “wall” they might make a really thick wall and you can even paint the outside as you do with the inside
wouldnt that create a big "V" shape indend between the 2 sides of the wall? as they both have to start on the ground and have to end as high as you pull them?
@@tiyangina3571 maybe! But you can round them to minimize the v and place a roof on top
Thank you for posting Kayla! Right before this my sims crashed and basically everything that I had built was gone… this cheered me up🥰
I’m so sorry about that once when I was a sims newb I had built this really nice house but accidentally deleted the whole file.
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
oh girl, i got a new laptop months ago and promptly lost all of my cc and old sims... still not over it
@@jessmacdd damn that sucks
@@jessmacdd literally the other day I got Ransomware on my computer that encrypted all my saves, CC and tray files so I feel you
Honestly this would be perfect for those runaway teen/rags to riches games early on. You could move them into this once they get the 1k and it could be like they are squatting in an old shack or something, I probably will download this!
i saw this on your gallery first, I'm amazed that you did it was so little budget. YAY KAYAK
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
@@VRoberts1117 same haha x3
I mean, this looks like a great starter home honestly C:
Better than some EA builds! Haha.
This is possible… with debug Kayla can always complete this challenge she always finds a way. And your hair looks fine it always does Kayla.
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
Video idea: house build that has to be more than $100,000 simoleons
she did a million simoleon mansion a few months ago!
@@reybrunke9051 I know.
I love this little hole in the wall. I honestly adore all the little roof buildings you’ve made. I think you could probably perfect the roof-walls by using hipped roofs so the corners are nice - I will probably try it myself!
I think it looks like a tent, I like it and will be downloading it for my next rags to riches adaptation. I think your hair looks good you and Dan make a great team 😊
Your work ethic is insane tbh I wish I was as motivated as you
In Twisted Mexi's BBB, there are debug doors from CL that are free, plus I think it's the roof trim that is making it glitch like that, I would have chosen the black solar roof with black trim and the glass roof on top, that way she would have light from the sun--or moon. More free things yes, but free things that can be used, now that is what we need. As for the dollar, there is the wish tree in the trees category in build buy mode.
Before you changed the outside to look like a "house", it looked like a tent we used to have when I was younger haha
1:20 Actually Trash Shoots are free, question is - are showerheads cheaper (they aren't - 300$ is the least amount, but you probably could cut on other items to find that extra 180$)? They definitely need less work when playing, cause hygiene from sinks takes soo long. 2:50 Putting glassroof helps with underwhelming lighting. 3:20 Well, you could technically use debug lightboxes, which are also free. 9:05 Nice you found it. 10:55 To be fair you could cover those roofs with debug walls and bricks. 11:20 This also works. I think glass roofs would look ok as well (the proper wall would stay, with glass becoming artistic details), grass and the solar panel roofs probably would also look ok. And if you have any money left a window, can be used on those as well. 13:40 I searched for some other tricks - I wonder why Get Together Bonfires don't allow cooking like other ones - major oversight tbh, especially as they are super cheap (95$). But to be fair a lone fridge allows for you to have salads, microwaves are cheaper than ovens and I believe you can also cook in ovens some stuff without a fridge? From other stuff - you probably could have used a single glass roof and put doors directly on that. You can get very natural shapes this way and much more light on it. The only downside is that one part of the room isn't as accessible. Either a one part roof or a curved two-sided one would work the best. This would save you the wall cost you used under doors. Which is extra 70$ + cost of the wallpaper.
I recently discovered that if you buy the decoration box from seasons and click rummage for decorations then you get free decorations! Might be useful for rags to riches 😁
A petition to Simsie: PLEASE put back the Christmas tree 🎄🎄🎄
She’s not going to it took her a long time to put it up and a long time to take it down.
I second this!
Yes please🌼🌼
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
@@mirjinou7999 My parents said "Wait here, We'll be back.." ..And yet. :L
Just me or does it look like a tent before she changed it
Question: Why always use a 2 person bed? I am honestly curious because I am working up to playing a rags to riches. Thanks!
There is no single person bed that cheap though
i love how rick has taken place for the christmas tree lmao
Ngl Kayla, I do kinda feel personally offended that the Christmas tree is already down..
learning that spiders spawn on the cobwebs just changed the trajectory of my life
Technically you'd only need 3 items to make a functional living space (I wouldn't call it a house tho). WooHoo bush (bladder, energy, fun, social), sink (hygiene, dishes) and a fridge (quick meals). Done .You'd be pretty miserable if you were to live in such conditions but you'd definitely survive 🤷♀️ Well, not you you but your sim xD
Yes definitely my sim cause *I* would die.
You can use a cooler if you’re only doing quick meals, or a mini fridge so you can save fruit cake and produce you get.
Thank you for always making my day with your videos ❤
You could make an a-frame with a gabled roof at the back instead of a half-gabled roof
i started watching you yesterday and i already LOVE YOUUUUU
Hope everyone’s day has been good so far
That was GREAT. Really proud of Kayla
Kayla, if you kept the tree up, you could redecorate it for every holiday out of spite. Why should you let others dictate what you want to do? You're still an individual, and should just ignore people who want it their way when you weren't harming anyone
Isn't doing something just to spite the people who tell you not to just letting other people dictate your actions in a more round about way?
ur skills are so good! amazing job with this build kayla
I'm surprised you think the cooker is required. You can just have your sims eat salads and such without it.
Oh, content idea, possibly for live stream: partner up with a simmer who mostly does CAS or Let’s Play, and you build a house for their sims and they build sims for your build.
rip christmas tree you will be missed 💖💖
here’s a cc/patch concept: making the mail slots on doors functional as mailboxes.
The vids always make my day❤️
it looks like a fancy tent and im loving it
I love her merch so much it’s so cute and I really wanna buy some rn
Everytime Kayla makes one of these, I scream THE FREE ARTWORK FROM UNIVERSITY but she never hears :(
I love you simsie! You make my day amazing!!!
In yesterday’s video you showed Nancy landgraab living by herself and I think that should totally be a let’s play with the goths and pancakes and others too
And you can make them over 😂
Yes just build a box
Simsie: We need shelter from the elements right? Penny (My Humble Rags To Riches Sim) : Oh that's cute . . . I have a tarp, a cot, a fridge and a snapdragon that i planted after stealing one from my neighbors garden. Don't worry. The snapdragon rewards your theft with 25 simoleons every other day though . . . unless you have seasons in which best use that phone to work in a career that I'm totally qualified for. (I'm just memeing lol)
To everyone seeing this have an amazing day 💕
What about a microwave on a small table? Would that be cheaper?
She could do a mini fridge with a microwave on top to save a grid space and some money. Plus I don’t think they catch on fire.
the fact that you upload these every day is a blessing
So ready for this!
My parents Said iff i gott 20,2k subss ,I wouldd get a new gaming PC
stonks
I bet Nancy loves her new home
Love this! Thank you.
I’m impressed. I don’t use debug objects ever since I rarely do challenges, but now I’m intrigued.
Such a cool video! 🤩
Soo cool beside the spider in the fridge. :o
Love the vid❤️
Hey! A free meditation stool and chalk summoning circle means this is not only a survival build, but that your sim can build 2 skills!
It makes me so happy that this cost exactly $999 at first
1 minute ago thank you Kayla for another video, it’s gonna be great!
Kayla always has the best videos
Your hair looks great! Good job Dan!
looks like a tent/ house? lol pretty cool actually.....also, I think your hair styles like Molly Ringwalds in pretty in Pink/ Breakfast club era would totally suit you ! You are beautiful Kayla ♥️♥️
Ooo I'm inspired to give this a try myself!
“Stains behind the bed” 😍🥰😘🤪 I’m jealous!!!1
kayla!!! i was just checking out your merch and its so cute! next time you drop, can you make the sim game club into a crew neck??? i want one (L)_(L) love u
We gotta get Stanley a wife/husband. He needs a solid partner to live with him in the rags to riches or something 😁😅
todd howard: its just work lilsimsie: its function
an irl $1000 house is probably a shed from home depot
hey kayla today i saw a tiktok that said in order to shave space in the sims yo can actually use the corner kitchen counter and its works as a normal one
I love how you had Nancy Landgraab living here. 😂
I once built an off-grid house without any walls at all for under 1,800. It's in the style of an Andersen shelter, so I just put two rounded roofs next to each other and put a door right in the side of the roof. The interior is a bit grim tbf but I love it anyway and I think I did some cool stuff with the exterior, using debug tyres as planters and stuff.
Shape gives me tent vibes 😅 but good job Kayla, those debug lights saved the day
“…Also, yes, that is Rick Astley…” Best aside ever, thank you.
I LOVE that you can build a house with just a roof. I totally went and tried this, and you don't need to put a wall in order to have the door. It goes on the roof wall just fine. Mine is an off-the-grid bunker with a grass roof. I love it. Came here to post a screenshot, but I don't think I can.
I mean...I didn't build it on the cheap though... lol
I unironically love this house
YES CARDBOARD RICK IS BACK BABBY
Oh yes, the return of the Rick Astley cardboard cutout
It looks like the giant resistance tent from the batuu pack 😅 But honestly great starter home
This is actually cute 🥰 Have u ever tried doing the Collins house from the twilight saga
Why do I love it
This is amazing 🤩
a masterpiece
oH No….. 🎄the Christmas Tree🎄….. it’s…✨GONE!!!!!✨
Yes simsie. Yes it is. You will show us how:)
Without CC, all you really need for a single adult sim: bed (as couch and dining chair), one unused counter top (put dishwasher underneath), stove, fridge, toilet, University backless shower (can be placed in front of toilet), wall mounted TV/Stereo/Bookshelf opposite of bed, recycling trash can. THAT'S IT! Sinks are unnecessary!
Your hair looks really good! I’ve never cut my own hair very well
Hi simsie!!!! I'm your new subscriber and I don't regret it!
i actually love it
