I love living in the US but...

...is it just me or does it seem a lot harder to find a Wii here? People in other countries are posting that they are going to stores hours, even days after the arrival of a shipment and still finding units. On the other hand, I call a store and they say that they got them in 5 minutes ago so I drive there that instant and they are sold out of the 3 consoles that they received before I arrive. Unbelievably frustrating.

I just went to 2 walmarts, gamestop, eb games, best buy (first one there), toysrus (also first one there) and circuit city and none of them had any wiis. But the guy at circuit city told me that they get shipments mon.- fri. He said they get about 30 wiis in the morning but they have to put them all on the shelves so to come at 12:00 pm. So I guess tuesday is the next best day. I hope this helps you guys.

Like alot of people I'm still searching for a wii Excluding Ebay.

I have like 3 refreshers that show stock in that store in self, also one is a map system like google maps but allows you to search around you area for wii's... I can really only find ebays, wal-marts around me lol...and said that Wal-mart was suppose to get stocked today/tomorrow but things changed.

I would assume so, as most businesses will be open. Not having Tuesday would severely damage sales in some small businesses that rely on UPS for their business.

Its strange, now that i am looking for a wii i cant even drive past an electronics store without stopping by real quick to see if they have my wii!
