How to do the Subway Tip Glitch in "Sims 3: Late Night"
Before "Sims 3: Late Night," Sims had to struggle with low-paying jobs if they wanted to be a musician. That changed with the 2010 "Late Night" addition of the subway in Bridgeport. The Sims can take advantage of the subway tip glitch, which allows a player to make thousands of in-game dollars within a very short period of time.
