I try to keep at least 1 fruit, rain (I like it to rain while they're eating as I know where everyone is!), a candy, and sometimes the desensitizing kit.

How about you?

And don't you with the tray held more stuff???

Currently I have a can of energy drink, a piece of licorice candy, a bottle of weed bomb, bananas and a bottle of antitussive syrup (the pharmaceutical company sent me a sample).

Basically I check the store every once in a while and buy whatever is needed/interesting. lol!

I keep bottled tropical rain - I still need the elusive blue butterfly!!! I have many favorite outfits so I usually keep one in the tray if I don't want to change the one my peeps are wearing. The weed bomb in case a bunch of those guys pop up!! Yes I wish the tray would hold more or at leeast let me keep more than one of an item - like the clothes.

I try to organize everything on the tool tray color-coded Green glove on the top, Red glove on the bottom and I just put my items that look good with those colors next to them.

I keep the tropical rain under the green glove, followed by perfume. From the bottom is always the red ball and men's cologne above the red glove. I keep these for when either the husband or wife passes away and I have the remaining person celebrate their marriage to honor their loved one.

When I run into items that will be useful but I don't need at the moment such as fruit, vitamins hand gel or the encyclopedia I keep those in my tool tray as well. (color-coded )

I like to keep that carrer manuals in the tool tray.

Like Lys, I keep the green glove at the top and the red one on the bottom but not for the same reason. I keep the red one on the bottom because I accidently slapped one of my peeps with it that I meant to praise. Under the praise glove I keep other praise items such as fruit and candies. I buy every piece of fruit that shows in the store, and they take priority in my tray. Under the fruit I have the vitamins and energy drink for when one of the peeps get sick. When my peeps are aging I try to buy the career books to give the next generation a jump on their career's. These and anything else goes beneath the fruit, candies, vitamins, and energy drink.

I also keep the green glove at the top and the red at the bottom. I also keep a doctor consult at all times. Below that is any candy or fruit I can buy. I keep the salty candy at the bottom because I accidentally gave it to someone instead of the cinnamon candy.

I usually keep one each of the career manuals after my parents have mastered their careers. When they come close to their 60's, I start filling up with candy and fruit to help train the next generation. I used to keep weed bombs/hand gel/vitamins, but have started using those as quickly as they appear.

I always have a fruit, gel , vitamins, an encyclopedia and a desensitization kit. Sometimes I have clothes I like and when my peeps are getting old, I also have a that weed killer thing.

My tray is filled with fruit, hand-gel, vitamins, clothes (each family has their own colors, and are either casual or formal), and occasionally a bottle of rain, salty candy, an energy drink, or a doc's consult. Once in a while I'll keep a weed-bomb, a story book/dvd, or a career manual. No matter what, I always keep one tray box open for items that are dropped on my doorstep.

About the only items I'll leave in the tool tray are candies/fruit for use as rewards in place of the green glove. In one family I haven't yet got the 'Trick' award, so I'll also buy salty candy. Pretty well everything else is given to the peeps straight after buying from the store.

Yes, forgot to mention that - I always leave an empty space for some item that some event may bring.

Now, as I've found all the bugs (yay!) I don't carry the rain bottle anymore.

After having one of my kids become seriously ill, keeping a spare bottle of antiseptic hand gel in the tool tray is important and critical. It is the best item to bring back health and you'll be glad you have it when you need it. I usually keep an extra energy drink in the tool tray also, in case of illness or old age, which drains the energy bar away fairly quickly. Like you, I use the fruit and candy rather quickly, my little people deserve all the praise I can give them.

Oh, yeah! I forgot about the energy drink! I keep one when I get it, but come to think of it, I haven't seen one in quite some time!

I keep the green glove on top and red on the bottom, too. I once swatted a person for working on his career!

Hi there =)

I have my-

Green Glove
Delicious Candy
Licoriace Candy
Energy Drink
Bananna
Blood Orange
*Empty*
Red Glove


Maybe I will edit in if I have more. Maybe.

I keep an energy drink, and a floor kit (in case of an earthquake)

I usually keep on hand at all times:

energy drink (for when someone has an infection or I need to clean the house and there's no kids)
desalinization kit (for when I get those non-runners)

For when mom or dad getting ready to pass on:

Outfit I want to put the new adoptee in
energy drink
desalinization kit
any work mags I come across (you never know what he/she will be)
Any fruit or candy (to praise the new person to work )

I always try and have:

An Energy Drink - For when I need something Done and there aren't many people to get it done
A Chamomile Drink - For when I get the full family, and I need to be able to keep peeps under control

I'll have these if lucky:

A New Fe/Male Outfit - I generally have these for when there's going to come a new generation, and I'll never know if I like what the new person has on
New Work Mags - I buy these whenever I can and use them as soon as possible. Sure, towards the end of the generation, they become less and less, so I use them frugally then, even saving a few to pass on to the next person that comes along

I keep:

Tropical Rain
Tropical Sun
Energy Drink
Bananas

Two either fruit or vitamins, and two candy

I keep perfume/ engergy or chamomile drinks.

I always have a bottle of sunshine, vitamins, and a piece of good candy.

Floor repair kit, and if my fam is rich, a cute outfit for male and female, and an energy drink... salty candy if i still need the trophy.

I keep Energy Drinks, Weed Bomb, Good Candy, Clothes, Sunscreen, and Encyclopedias
