Buying Summer Ice Chests

You can either buy a summer ice chest for 250 lemon slices or a sweet refreshment basket for 75 simcash. You will get an item at random each time,  you can get some of them more than once, for example you could win up to 4 barbecues or 8 summer chill towers. Also some items you may get more of one when you have already won it for example, if you get the ultra posh glasses more than once the second time that prize will be converted into something else.

Each item pictured has a ribbon next to it which shows you the rarity of that item, this shows you how likely it is you will earn that item:

Once you have unlocked an item there will be a tick on that item, the aim is to unlock all the items before the time limit is up!

What do I think about this event?

The world of luxury event was better than the hot tub event, the odds were better and I was able to earn more prizes but I did get so many repeats (I got one CAS prize over 10 times!!) so I am really hoping they have tweaked this again to improve the odds this time. I don’t like that they still have tickets in this event, I don’t think they need to be there, when you have saved up all your lemon slices to then get a few sim tickets is just a huge let down. I also think it is strange that the chest costs 250 lemon slices this time when in the last event they cost 50 coins but at least we earn a bigger reward for completing the parts in this quest!

Thanks for reading!

  1. They’re asking me to place the Summer Drinks Tray but I haven’t been able to find it.

  2. So one thing i don’t understand about this game, and frankly this is stupid….. is the fact that prizes repeat so often. Why??? It’s not like we can have multiple houses that each need a barbecue or picnic table. So what’s the point? Once an item has been unlocked then let it be just that, unlocked….. and move on. Its so frustrating…… not just when the events happen, but with heirlooms too. I’ve gottenso many repeat ones…… its so frustrating.
