More Tips
Cooking Milk
Yeah I know it may sound weird but it is one way to save money.
Here's how.
1) Buy the milk at The Jolly Gourmet for only 5 dollars.(sim money)
Make sure you stock up so you wont have to keep going to the store.
2) Go to your oven and "cook"
check the milk and press the frying pan button thingy.
Where its red and blue, keep it at 5. cook it on 5 until there's 3 green dots at the top. Then really fast press the blue checkmark. Then the message will say " Hmm, that's just bit wierd. Still, sometimes weird is...OK?" You should also buy a fridge because then you wont have to cook you just keep on snacking.
