Donating YT 30K Club Member | Nintendo Wii Has anyone had any luck finding the Nintendo Wii console? I decided to try and get one for my dtr and of course they are impossible to get unless you want to pay double what it costs and I don't. A walmart 30 minutes away had 26 come in today but by the time I got there they had just sold out!

Mom to Marty & Maddie Donating Member | The best way to get one is to find out what day the shipments come in (ask an employee) and be there first thing that morning. It's how DH and I got ours. Good luck!! |

| This must be a really popular game, because quite a few people here are looking for them. I hope you get one. I remember when my kids were small there was always one present that I had to stand and wait for hours to get. Glad they've outgrown that.

| I know Toys R US gets them Sunday Mornings. I got one for my nephew, and I was told to get to TRU at 3am! Yes! The bars were just closing and I was at TRU at 3am! When I got there, there were 12 people in line already! UGH! So about 7am, the manager came out and said they got in 14 games. And he passed out the slips to the 1st 14 of us! Phew! I was lucky! So, I got to go sit int he car til 8am, thats when the store opened (I think~) and bought it~ But there were about 25 people also in line who weren't so lucky. So get there early!! Good Luck!

No Longer a Member | We got ours at Target several months ago. The kids had had several gift cards saved up between their birthdays and Christmas, and since we couldn't touch one around christmas last year, we just waited. I started by calling every morning between 9-11am (when they get their shipments in) and asking if they had gotten any. After a while, I forgot to call everyday, and it was about once a week. I lucked out one day and went in with the kids, and let them buy one at regular price ($249). I can't believe some people are willing to pay $500. I also thought it was sad that on Thanksgiving, people were lined up all night long at Kmart to buy one at regular price. Now, I'm on the lookout for Guitar Hero for the Wii. They retail for $89, but they're going for about $150 shipped on ebay. |
