A Sim can only use the Metal Detector in Direct Control mode. It is possible to find
money, Dangleberries, monkey idols, and bottle caps.

The more expensive refrigerators carry more foods. They also add a bonus amount of
hunger satisfaction. The more cooking skill you have, the higher the hunger satisfaction.
Additionally, hunger is the one need that if left unmet can kill your Sim. To quickly
fulfill your Sim's hunger even with low cooking skills, make a meal using Beef, Pork,
Lamb, and Potatoes.

If you are low on money and do not have enough to eat, sell your refrigerator, stove,
etc. and buy a Fruit Punch Barrel. It will satisfy your hunger about 98\%. You can just go
to "Drink From Tap" and it will do the rest.

Get a job for everybody that lives with you. Then, enable the "Advance time by 6 hours"
code and send them to work. Before they come back, enable the "Advance time by 6 hours"
code again. Do this every day before the people come back. Note: You cannot do this
when you are a ghost.

Get your Friendship level up to 80 or 90. If the background is very red and blurry, select
"Be on" the socialize menu and go to a bed. Select "Relax", then choose the bed again.
Select "Woo whoo" once, then press Circle to get out of the bed. Select "Socialize" and if
you are in love, select "Propose" and hope that the other Sim says yes.

Dangleberry, Yogurt, Strawberries, and Cherries; or Ostrich, Eel, Strawberries, and
Mangosteen (expensive but works the best). Sandwiches that boost energy (also is a love
dish) are Ostrich, Pork, Strawberry, Wheat Bread.

You must have a Fish Tank. Harvest your fish and go to the refrigerator. This will not
cost any money. Get the Shark, Halibut, Eel, and Squid. Go to your stove and make
Capriccio. If you do not see that option, eat it raw. You will vomit, but some of your
stats will increase. Note: You must take a shower after this because of the vomit.
Do not do this just before your carpool arrives because you might not have time to take a
shower.

At the title screen, press Right, Down, Right, Down, Right. If you entered the code
correctly, you will hear a Sim voice. Alternately, press Left, Right, Down, Right, Left,
Right, Down at the title screen. If you entered the code correctly, you will hear a Sim
voice.

Go to Build mode, then go to wallpaper and press Square to sell. Select a wall that has
no wallpaper. Keep selling the wallpaper that does not exist for easy money.

If you need some money and own a "Defective Arcade Genie Lamp" you can keep making
wishes and you will get money eventually. However, the genie can also cause fire and make
all the characters in the area of the lamp to pee themselves if you make him mad. When the
genie is mad he will come out of his lamp with red colored smoke beneath him. However, if
he is giving you something good the smoke will be purple or pinkish. It is best to perform
this when you first get a house so that you can get your money and not risk losing any
items you have purchased. Note: If you talk with the genie, he will also give you
small advice and hints occasionally.

Use the following trick if you are in need of food and have very little money. Buy an item
that can have food harvested from it. Harvest the food from it, sell it back, then buy
another. This will keep you from having to spend money on food. Unless there is more than
one sim in your house, you do not have to worry about the other Sim wasting money buying
non-harvested foods.

Objectives that require buying furniture can be easily purchased on low ends. Just buy it
to complete the goal, then delete and get your full money back.
