It clearly says when you finish the goals that the reindeer will arrive on Christmas day!

Merry Christmas Everyone! Who got their free reindeer this morning?! To find it go to the pet store, click on reindeer, click on the arrow to go across to the reindeer because the first one isn’t free! The brown one is free so click to buy then choose a house for it to go in!

I think you need the pet store to get a reindeer and if you didn’t complete the goals I think you can still get reindeers for 75LPs!

As it took soo long to complete these goals, I was hoping that all the reindeers would be free but oh well!

Note: I live in England, due to the time difference I may not be able to reply to your questions the day you ask them!

Thanks for reading!

  1. Yesterday I didn’t finish in time and was able to finish it today. I still got the chair from yesterday as well. It looks like I’ll have to finish today’s tomorrow, too. Wow, they are getting way too long!

  2. Hey if you do not complete day 9 and then day 10 comes will the goals for day 9 still stay there or will they change to day 10???

  3. My question is if I get behind on a day and I’m doing it the next day. Once I finish one day can I do the next right then if I’m behind

  4. Tip for people having to use LPs: I usually wait as long as I can before using them so as to pay the least amount, but I try to do it when the time remaining in the minutes is around 55-59 since the LP price is the hours remaining.

  5. When I do the talk to an elf about a Elf three foot steps pop up and won’t let me go anywhere how do I make him talk to me

  6. When I try the goal talk with elves about elves I try to talk to him and the footsteps pop up am I not in the right location? Why wont he talk to me

  8. Oh my god I only have 2 days left to complete the question and I’m only on day 5 what do you think I should do?

    • Don’t panic! If you have LPs it will be helpful to use them, also if you set a number of goals at the same time, setting a long goal before that goal appears whenever possible, just don’t click on that sim once they have completed the goal, until the goal appears! If that helps!

      • An easy tip for anyone trying to get life points is to get loads of sims fully levelled up on different hobbies. Once you get all of the base rewards (e.g. For ghost hunting a containment unit), then keep doing the sims on 4 minute shifts until you get all of the collection again and then you get 3 lp every time you complete the collections. I favor the ghost and the sewing ones as you get a lot of money as well. On average I get 20 lp a day and I’ve never bought lp or used any cheats. I hope this helps you! Good luck on completing the Chritmas quiz. Hope you do it.

  9. My sim always refuses to talk and say hello to the elf, all the time. She crosses her arms and the footprints appear above her head. What’s the problem? Help.

  10. Whenever I try to talk to the first elf about elves the two blue footprints above its head come up and my sims won’t move. I have tried it with other sims as well and the same thing has happened?!

  13. I cant “watch the nutcracker soldier closely” :/ the bottten simply doesn’t apper 😦 what sould i do? I really want that pet raindeer 🙂

  14. How many days are there because I’m on day 9 of the quest and I was wondering how many days there are ?

  15. I finished day 10 but the quest challenges have disappeared what happens next ? None the wiser and no reindeer

    • If you finish all the days quests then you need to wait until the next day to do the next day! And you only unlock the reindeer once you finish all the days quests!

  17. Can I continue the quest in advance or do I have to wait for the next day? how? And is the deadline for the quest at 12am of Dec 25 or the 12am of dec 26?

  21. Who is grouch and where can I found him? I have the mission”Be nice with grouch”

  26. The time is just getting rediculous and I didn’t actually start until the other day! I’m on day 8 and I have like no lp left come on sims this is stupid!

  29. So for day 11 the rest of the goals are as follows: ( i started at midnight):
    Sing Christmas carols- 4mins
    Look closely at machine in park-7hrs 7mins

  31. When u get the stairs do u have to pay for them? Do u have to pay for the next floor? How do I get loads of money ?

  32. The celebrate xmas on a sleigh is taking way too long and I dont have any LP to make it faster. Ugh. 😒.

  34. I can’t watch the nutcracker soldier closely! I’m already in santas workshop but I still cannot watch it closely. HELP!

  37. Okay, this 12 days of Christmas thing is crazy. There is absolutely no way that I will finish in time, and I am on the 9th day. This is so unfair- it’s like EA doesn’t want you to get the reindeer, unless you buy dozens of LP’s and wake up at like 1:00 AM when the goals finish! Insane.

  38. Are there only 12 days of saving xmas ? I hope so …. Because I’m trying to complete day 9 on day 10 ….

  39. i’m on day 11 and on the goal have a toddler sit on santas lap but santa is nowhere to be found. he is normally wandering around but after this goal appear he suddenly disappeared. how do i complete this goal? is this happening to everyone else?

  40. LOL. I don’t know why, but my the sims freeplay just skip the christmas quest, and told me i can’t finish it in time. now i start doing new year’s eve quest. ==

  41. What happens if you don’t have a toddler to sit on santa’s lap, to get a baby it takes a day and 3 LPS then to grow it into a toddler 5 LPS to make it a toddler there wouldn’t be enough time. What do I do? 😦

  42. Btw, i only started the quests on like what was supposed to be day 5 but i slowly caught up and i’m just completing day 10 now, so not completing the quest on the particular day doesn’t matter 🙂

  43. I am on day 6 and when I click fly a sleigh to peru it says 8 1/2 hours, but yours says 3 hours. what should I do? is this a glitch? also when I went to talk to an elf about an elf the time was longer than what u posted. I dont mind spending lps. I usually pay $1.03 and gamble to see what I get

  44. Ok, now I am really worried because after I finish the tasks, it suddenly disappeared…but where’s my reindeer? i cannot find it anywhere even in the pet store!?

  47. I sent one of my sims to the workshop ahead of time just in case they had to make toys….voila toys was one of the goals….that saved me a lot of time!

  48. I only i have 1 day and 12 hours to finish the goals.i am now on my “on hold tech support”.and I have a short time to finish my goals.in Canada tech support is only 5 hours.what do I do.i even ran out of simolins

    • If you are using the cheapest phone it will take longer than 3 hours so 5 hours is probably right! Try and set a load of goals up in advance, say you put your sim to make presents for a goal that doesn’t appear to later and don’t click on them when they finish until that goal appears!

  49. Your post is so helping. In day 10, I was still on day 7 quests. Thanks to your blog / post I can manage when to use LP. Hopefully I can finish day 11. #gosh
