Livin' Extra Large

After all the great house contests this summer, we've only got one empty lot left in our Ultimate Neighborhood: Lot 2 -- that big posh one at the top of the hill.

The house on Lot 2 should be truly awesome -- as only a house from The Sims Livin' Large can be. So build your house and family using the new expansion pack for The Sims, and give us a great story in your family album that could only happen in The Sims Livin' Large.

To enter, Teleport a Family Album to The Sims Exchange and send an email to thesimscontest@maxis.com.

All entries must include your name, address, e-mail address, birthdate and the unique URL of your Easy Street house on The Sims Exchange.

The email address that you send this from must match the email address of your Product Registration. All entries must be received by September 24, 2000.
