Earn store SimPoints by watching ads!

Not sure if I reported about this on the website, though I have posted about it on social media. Some time ago the Sims team enabled worldwide earning of SimPoints by watching ads. This means you can go onto the Sims 3 Store page at any time, and if there are ads available for you (disable adblock), you can click this image which will appear in the sidebar on the store pages:

and you will be able to watch an ad. After you're done watching, you can claim your reward, which is 5 SimPoints per ad.

I've been offered between 5-7 ads in a row. So with a bit of luck you can earn 25-35 SimPoints simply by watching ads! That's pretty neat, especially for those who can't actually buy SImPoints for whatever reason.
