Laundromat

One of the new features in Ambitions is laundry. Sims like clean clothes—a fresh shirt puts them in a great mood.

Because washers and dryers are expensive, every town has a laundromat where Sims can use community equipment for §35 per load in the cheaper washing machines and §60 in the expensive machines.

Primary Use

The laundromat is there so Sims can launder clothes without having to purchase expensive objects for their own lot or deal with the noise from them, which disturbs other Sims in the household.

But there's more going on at the laundromat than clean pants. The laundromat is a wonderful place to socialize with other Sims.

While using the laundromat, there are a few things to keep tabs on. Normally, Sims cannot take other folks' clothes while machines are in use.

However, klepto Sims get a kick out of stealing other Sims' clothes and Evil Sims like to take wet clothes from a finished washing machine cycle and just toss them on the floor.

If your Sim has either of these traits, then there's an extra bit of fun to be had at the new laundromat.
