Yah just do this money cheat. For me it works every time!!!
1. Close sims free play. Also double tap and hold down on free play until x come up. Press the x. App will not delete.
2. Next go to settings. Change the year to the past year
3. Go back to free play. Wait for it to load, then X out ( do not close down on double tap!!)
4. Go to settings and change year back to current year.
5. Open free play again and VOILA!!!! U got 5000 SIMOLEONS!!! Works all tha time!!! Maybe it only works on Xmas update. Works on iPod touch 5 I know that.
Glad I could help y'all!!!!
