The Sims 2 FreeTime v1.13.0.161 Patch

I just bought "THE SIMS 2 FREETIME'" , and it says that i have to have the sims 2 disc to install it. I think E.A. is stupid for not letting people know that they have to buy the first cd just to make it work so when you go to get the game make sure you get the right one. E.A Should pay me a refund for this because i just wasted my time buying this game. They must really like there money because i have to go out again and get another damn disc just to play.
