You're welcome everybody! :D
This was actually an old idea of mine, but I decided to make it more into a housewife thing.

How much money does it take each day? (Love that idea, btw, much more true to life!)

@Kayee: It depends on what "errand" your Sim is currently running. It also is dependent on the chance cards GREATLY; that's why I say that people really shouldn't skip the chance cards, because there isn't a physically bad result that comes from them. **SPOILER-ish** For example, one of the chance cards in the Grocery Shopping "level" asks what your Sim wants to buy. (It lists two different veggies as different choices; sometimes choosing the more expensive one gives your Sim a skill point, sometimes it doesn't.) Option A and Option B both list the different veggies, but they also list the price(s) that your Sim pays if they select a certain veggie. Once selected, money is deducted from the household funds.

You know, I've been thinking about this career and it would be perfect for a Stepford Wife. I think I'm going to find a Faith Hill sim and make Sarah Sunderson. I really do love this career. Thanks again for making it.

Hey, thanks everyone! Glad you all like it! If there's anything I could fix or add to it, please comment!
Also, could someone test it with an adult male Sim? Thanks!

Just hold and press Ctrl+F and type in 'hair.' The first result is the Breeze hair, which is the one I used.

It's not a career, it's better!
It's more like a LIFESTYLE! To give the Sims that added realism is very thoughtful.
You've helped me actually simulate a life, I always wondered how much Bella would spend if I let her go shopping on her own - Thankyou!

Thanks!

I tried to put the hours/days accordingly to the "level"/ task. So your Sim probably won't go to the spa every day, nor they will not baby shower shop every single day.

First control the Sim you want to have it and go to either the computer or use the newspaper. It should eventually pop up saying, "Would you like to be a grocery shopper in the Everyday Housewife/husband career?" Say yes. It won't always say this, though; I recommend MogHughson's wonderful job board which you can get here.
