Black Friday

So many commercials and advertisement on deep discount prices on mostly everything in department stores in so litle time. No wonder people are crowding for the best low prices on Christmas shopping. I wonder how the Sims shop during Black Friday, that would make an interesting scenario in story telling. People fighting over the same product, very long lines in front of the cash registers, customers complaining to the cashiers about the prices that aren't marked down like the ads, even customers pitching tents in the parking lot so they'll be the first ones in as soon as the doors open (especially while it's still dark outside).

Perhaps I can make a commercial with these block buster deals Sims 2 style. Something like television sets, stereos, coffee makers, food processors, computers, cell phones, toys, winter clothes, etc. I'll make them look like department store advertisements like Kmart, Wallmart, Best Buy, Target to name a few. It will take a little research on choosing the best discount for each item on Black Friday. When I get all the resources together, I'll make up one of the commercials with voice over and video text when I choose a couple of items for sale in Sims 2.

To make up a name for a department store is easy, I just got to choose a name that is catchy, unique and exquisive. Using a name brand for a Sims 2 commercial may be alright for some people but not for me. Copyright issues.

Making packaged items is easy, I can download images online and use them as textures for boxes like computer sets and television sets. I can use any type of sizes I want. The images online may vary. I can create departments like electronics, cookware, toys, video games, apparel, etc. What's missing is a big rolling shopping cart. Welll, I have to search online for that download. If they don't have it, then I'll find some way to make one.
