the trash can gives 10 dollars for each sim in your household so if you have the max 8 you should be getting 80

[@dashka-s-kosi4kami]

ye, and also you can put things manually like with any other trash-bin

[@odd_carrot]

exactly, and pets also count! i use it mostly because u don't have to take away the trash since the bin never fills up

[@lou4908]

560 a week

[@Kualinar]

If you use MCCC to increase the maximum number of Sim in a family, you can get much more. 20 Sims in the family = §200 for each dirty plate or trash pile.

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

Huh... That seems dumb. Par for the course, I guess.

[@PrismaticPixie]

The trash can with babies is also good! I drag all the dirty diapers there.

[@NJT77]

Same😂

[@kafkafant]

Had you not said the thing about the diapers, you would have left me very confused... xD

[@B4RIIL]

the bin is my number 1 go to in every household .

[@NJT77]

Same😂

[@feyrearcheron9842]

Same haha every house has to have it 😂

[@lvmomma46]

Hi, you put the food in the lunchbox and then the lunchbox in the backpack

[@ccollins2890]

Because of course, lol. I was today old when I learned that.

[@marlzzz]

I always put that Let There Be Light! Laser Show in a toddler's room. I just let them watch this and their Fun Level will increase 😊

[@NJT77]

👍🏾 okay

[@TheDawnofVanlife]

Oooohhh never thought of that.

[@yasminni485]

That, and the Kolala night light to keep the monsters away.

[@MaeSeaSims]

I didn’t realize that this object even existed until I got it as a gift from father winter! 🫶🏻

[@GalaxyXPLR]

Me too, it's a life changer!

[@devilsmessanger]

i started using that trashcan day one ,it is great,if you cook crap early on,just dump it in there ,recouped losses ,cook again !

[@VioletKitty411]

The trashcan works best if you manually drag things into it instead of having your Sims do it. I have the lightshow in my toddler rooms and they love them. They get a happy moodlet from it.

[@kathyazzari839]

Yeah, my experience is that I only get $10 per Sim when I drag it in, but if I have my Sim throw it away, then we just get $10 total. It doesn't look like that's how it works for others, though, i.e., in this video.

[@Harley24986]

If you put the moveobjects cheat on, you can take that trashcan and make it look like a cutting board on the kitchen counter. It then hides the fact that it's slightly ugly and your sims can still use it. I do it all the time! If you just click and drag the dishes though you never have to worry about them washing them instead.

[@lorrainethomas241]

I have not tried this hack. Good one!

[@annabelledrake2027]

Oh my god I love you so much for posting this comment. I love the money trashcan but I've been playing a a historical fantasy save so I haven't been able to use it. This tip is a game changer for me!

[@silvervixen007]

I just use it, who cares if it matches

[@nedrane297]

LOL, the Magic 8 Ball toy has been around since the 1950's, we played with it when I was a kid in the 70's. It is not a 2000's toy

[@ShadowAnimeation]

Also the "Let there be light lazer show" is only "base game" if you buy the deluxe upgrade. It's not in the free version of the base game.

[@Inuyasha8185]

ah thanks that is why I have never seen it

[@cheesecakelasagna]

Can I still acquire it via Gallery?

[@ShadowAnimeation]

@@cheesecakelasagna Honestly, I'm not sure. I haven't tried lol You might could download it from the gallery. I mean it counts as base game category wise.

[@renaharris5916]

Have you tried yet? I couldn't fit the whole name in the search bar for it 😩

[@lillithk]

The trash can is a must! I only wish it had more color swatches..

[@Jas_rivia]

i downloaded cc for this bin, it still works the same but there’s swatches in every colour so it looks good in any build

[@bunnyellabell]

​@@Jas_rivia i've been meaning to find new swatches for it and i keep forgetting. thanks for reminding me haha

[@lillithk]

@@Jas_rivia thank you so much!

[@ccollins2890]

The portal in the magic tree opens every 12-ish sim hours. After the first exploration, going in will gain your sim elements or crystals, up to five per exploration. If it's been "too much game time" since your sim explored it, it will give out another plantsim seed. It will then return to giving out other items. I believe I also got metals once. Pros; gives lots of collectibles at a time, is "pretty" and looks good on spellcaster or "fairy-style" lots, for instance. Cons; takes up a ton of lot space, its look is unchangeable, if you don't pay attention to when the portal opens, you'll miss it pretty quickly.

[@WhisperTraining]

I did not know it could give you crystals or metals!!! It’s been ages since I used it but I guess I never knew so never got the timing right and only ever got plant sim fruit. Can’t wait to try this again!

[@fruity4820]

Another Con- one time i beraly had any space on the lot and i put the stemp with the beans kinda near the egde of the lot and when the tree grew is spawned outside the lot and i had no way to remove it so i just moved out into a different world😂

[@villyardk]

I started using the trash can during the Eco Lifestyle launch. There was a bug where if you didn’t own ECO, your outside bin would overflow and there was no way to empty it. The recommended workaround was to delete your full bin and buy a new one, but I bought the NanoCan instead.

[@rockibirch4477]

The Nanocan is the only bin I ever use 😅I don't like seeing trash build up, and yes, getting simoleons back each time it's used is nice.

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

2:00 I hope you try out diapers and repair trash. That's where 90% of my trash comes from.

[@TheGoldenAngel82]

The collection of sugarskulls could be a neat "side goal" for a lengthy legacy play perhaps. I tried once, When a sim dies, you can go to their grave and do an interaction at NIGHT (can't remember the exact timeframe), then you will get a popup message that someone special is in the area, and you can go to them and ask for a skull. You have to be polite and get to know them a bit before they are PERHAPS willing to give one away. I made a graveyard lot for my legacy, and I think I collected 4 skulls before I moved from PS to PC

[@kathyazzari839]

I use this trash can exclusively. Besides the $10 per Sim (which I only get that much when I drag it into the trash. If my Sim does it, I only get $10 simoleons). I have had a dozen Sims in the house and it really adds up fast.

[@shigeminotoge4514]

You can't put food in the backpack because you're meant to put the new lunchbox in there instead.

[@flappysquirrel5132]

...if you're doing the 100 Baby Challenge, that bin is a game changer. Also, you get 10 simoleons per sim in your household, so you'll make that money back quicker than you think.

[@Kualinar]

If you put things in the nanontech trash can, then, you gain §10 per member of the family. So, if you have a family of 4, you'll get §40 every time. The magic beans can be collected from the pocket of Patchy. I recently collected them all that way. The seeds found are random. Have all of the Sims aged child or older search for seeds in Patchy's pocket every day.

[@mermaidqueen9881]

I think if you make a sack lunch as an adult then you can add it to the backpack for the kid

[@nedrane297]

I got the magic beans from the dumpster, I didn't think of the gallery I'm ashamed to say

[@tiffanygilbert8188]

Also, If you drag the trash or plates to the money trash can yourself instead of the sims doing it, you make $10/household member

[@MzkeRiiBabY]

I always drag to the trashcan sims will almost never use it and then the wait time is annoying

[@jovanarosic3606]

The point of the trashcan is that you don't need trashcan man

[@ShadowAnimeation]

The trash can gives 10 per sim in the household. So like if there is one sim you'll get 10 each time but if you're in a legacy save with 2 adults, 2 kids, and an infant then you get 50 each time you trash something. It comes in super handy when you have infants on a long or normal life span, because you can throw away their diapers and bottles in it for side cash. Also for the backpack, you can't put food directly into it, but there is a lunchbox item that allows you to put food in it, and the lunchbox item can be placed in the backpack, like a legit school lunch. Which some players find cool/useful for if they're trying to be realistic and actually pack a backpack for their kid.

[@WhisperTraining]

Is the lunchbox in the base game? I remember there being one I pulled out and tried to use one time (not sure if it was base game or one of the packs I own) but the game wouldn’t let me click on it or do anything with it. Maybe I was doing something wrong or maybe it wasn’t the right lunch box?

[@emiliakirner3833]

Ok I only new about the trash can. Wow. Crazy!

[@stargirlvampire]

I didn't know about the tree thing, its actually nice to have it as decoration.

[@ccollins2890]

If your sim keeps exploring it when it re-opens, it will give out other collectibles, mostly crystals and elements. You have to keep an eye on it, because if you wait too long, your sim just gets another plantsim seed. I put it in front where I can see it when my sim gets mail. It takes the same amount of game-time to explore, though.

[@SilverInAWorldOfGrey]

The lunchbox is super helpful when feeding toddlers, they can grab anything themselves 🙌

[@tiffanygilbert8188]

I just did the magic bean tree in the Every Occult Challenge and I had never done it…so fun

[@ccollins2890]

It can be explored multiple times, when the portal re-opens. You have to keep an eye on the tree, though. It will either give another plant-sim seed, OR a bunch of crystal

[@Berries.creamm]

Omg you’re hitting it with the uploadsss. I always wait to watch your new videos before bed. Gives me bunch of ideas for the sims ✨

[@VeryTense]

I would love for you to do a video on your setup as far as specs on your computer to help able to handle all of your mods and etc! (I came from your mod list video) ◡̈

[@Shazian_Fleur]

Thank you Satch....awesome tutorial...as always. Old to Sims, after a long time gone, but new to your channel. AND loving it!!!

[@Ray_Vun]

lmao i always use that trash can. it's basically passive income

[@Junephoto7050]

I didn't know Shanice made an f to m transition or it's another character

[@vasochris9443]

I was literally looking for this comment

[@Astraylah-Spicy]

never knew about teh stump, so You shown me something new too. Thx

[@ccollins2890]

After some game-time passes, the portal reopens. If you explore it soon after it reopens, you'll get a bunch of crystals or elements. If you wait a bit, you get another plant-sim seed. Have fun. :)

[@lorrainethomas241]

Love the bin. You can drag objects into it. It takes plates, glasses, uprooted plants (if you don't have an outside bin), trash piles from repairing objects, and dirty nappies, baby bottles, and pet yuck (poo and hair balls.) AND another aesthetic hack is you can size it down and put it in a more attractive bin (except, depending in rhe size, there will be little lights hovering.) I have a cc bin that is just a tad bigger than the magic bin...it fits inside perfectly, with no evidence, but it's still functional. #magicbinnerd

[@tianacampbell3025]

We need another lets play satch

[@annabelledrake2027]

You've never used the fancy trash bin???? Are you even a simmer??? /Sarc Also I've placed the smart speaker so many times with the intention of playing around with it but I always forget because it's so small. The magic tree I've literally never heard of, it's so pretty! I will definitely be using that. And how did I never know about the light show?? I played with just the base game for so long! it has to have been added in an update or something, I definitely would've seen it!

[@ccollins2890]

Put a Lin-Z in the kitchen to remember to use it while cooking. Talk to it and play your sim's favorite station while cooking. Use it to build dancing skill. The coolest thing about having a full relationship with Lin-Z is that when it detects a hungry household member, it orders a FREE pizza. If it detects a mess on the lot, it orders a free maid. If it detects something broken, it orders a free repair person. I love it.

[@LionmaneElsie08]

I feel male Shanice needs to be called Manice 😁 I never knew about the laser show item, that’s actually really cool

[@Omgwhatisthat42]

The tree sprouting was a genuine jump scare

[@sigridbjergbakkemeyer3653]

Also the trashcan gives more, if you drag things into it rather than your sim putting it in

[@inthesparklingsky]

There’s also an other object I don’t remember how it is called, which is something like a small witch’s pot! If you activate it the projection of a a cute ghosty ghost is going to appear out of it. Outside that, it’s completely useless though. 😂

[@vallemdarkkind]

did you know about the tree you can explore in the base game? it lets you inside with a whole little area to walk around in.

[@mumplaysthesims8396]

Everything possible goes in the bin. Plates, bottles, nappies, dog poo and i put one out in the horse paddock and put the horse poo in too

[@queene9327]

you can just drag it into the trash can it’s way easier

[@chelsealang5321]

I’m only on the backpack part right now so I’m not sure if you’re going to cover the lunch bag, I’m not sure what pack it came from but there is a lunch bag that you can pull food from it like a fridge but it’s all food that wouldn’t really be in a lunch bag and it costs 0 simoleons so it’s a very cheaty cheat for rags to riches or something tbh

[@Rianna_B]

I thought this was just my game from all the mods I have, but I guess not. Lately whenever I download something off the gallery it just completely breaks my game & I had to do what you did & manually shut off my game. Hopefully that gets fixed soon.

[@Lewis0502]

Downloading anything from the gallery is such a faf for me

[@DyonisX]

[@lburm964]

you can add food to backpack to have to put food into pack..

[@ancaryvan4811]

This video urges me rewatching Coby, The Supersim series. From Carl S.G.

[@antiquatedmizfit]

The drag and drop method works best because Sims will often combine piles of trash so you will end up getting less in the long run.

[@taylarlabree]

The trash can money goes by the amount of sims in your house. If you drag and drop the trash in you’ll always get $10/sim

[@aliabobalia]

I wonder if you can put food in the backpack if you pack it into a sack lunch first

[@zeynepraz3387]

You can click the plates and move them to the bin freely without your sims trowing that

[@tropssicle9119]

The trash can gives you 10 simolens for each sim in your household. So if you had 5 it'd be 50 8 would be 80

[@keyLimner]

I've used every single one of these objects, maybe I'm playing this game too much 😂

[@JubeiKibagamiFez]

3:15 This seems redundant. The sim inventory is virtually infinite. I could only see this item as acting as a partition, though.

[@bunnyellabell]

for roleplaying purposes, too. stick your kid's homework into their backpack etc. but yeah, a partition to sort the endless inventory is actually rlly helpful sometimes :)

You just need MC command center or ui cheats, one of the the too (i am not sure cause i have both) then click shift on sim, then collections, then you can choose which one you want to complete, then the skulls will appear in your sim's inventory
