OMFG. I can hardly breathe!

Ok, for those who are on the fence about itracker... just do it!

I have been hunting for about two weeks now and no luck. I signed up for itracker seriously like two hours ago, and about 45 min ago I got an alert for a local target I allready checked today and was told UPS brought none.

FLEW to that Target, they got 20 Wii's in!!!!!! I would have never knowen they had gotten that stray delivery this afternoon at 3pm if it wasn't for that $1.99 I spent at itrackr. Well worth two bucks!

Sorry, I'm so excited! Anyway, off to play my Wii. And anybody in the North Dallas area.. run as fast as possible to the Custer/121 Super Target.

All the Gamestops near me got their Wiis today...what's the pattern of their shipping? Like do they trickle in a few each day or once a week...

I tried searching the thread and didn't find much, then again I didn't look past the second page.

OMG, Thank God! I almost had a heartattack when I read that you got that itrackr alert and didn't know if you would go to Target. I swear to god, I have been watching your online status thing and praying that you actually went. Sorry for sending you the PM, but when I saw you were still online...

I'm so glad that it worked out for you!

oops! had meant to send this as a pm! that's how excited I am that everyone is finally getting wii's!!

all of our mii's will have to parade sometime!!

No answer, I call just now they had some around 2 and JUST sold out. I am so angry! I always just miss them.

Where are you located. If your on the West Coast thats probably good news for me (Midwest;Chicago) Cause i hear shipments move from west to east. And sorry about you just missing it that blows big time.

I don't know if I should bother with Itrackr. It's not as if I can jump into my car and dash off to Target when I'm at work.

In lighter news I have my name on a list at FYE.

Also interesting is Syracuse and Albany (the former 50 miles west of me the latter 70 miles east) have no updates in itrackr since last week. Also my school area (hartford) has not received anything either.

is it really worth the two dollars? Is it that accurate?

MarkyD · 01-03-2007, 09:53 PM

El Paso, TX westside Wal-Mart had them as of 2pm. FINALLY!!!!!!

Guitarsmasher108 · 01-03-2007, 10:02 PM

anyone in connecticut know what stores are good for getting in Wii shipments?

Chickenguy · 01-03-2007, 10:02 PM

Meh, my Target didn't get any Wii's today, sadly enough. My dad checked in the morning. (In Northern California)

I have yet to try Best Buy. And I must also admit I am on the fence with itrackr, how accurate is it? I am using the free part, and last time I checked, it was down.
(Hate to sound like a n00b, but...)
How do I PM saeta119? I want to try his acct thing, but it won't let me send him a PM.

SoCuteNY · 01-03-2007, 10:03 PM

^^^

I missed part of school (hehehe) to go to target...and THEY DIDNT GET SHIT....they better have it on thursday

AND MY TRU LIED TO ME!! I called ans sked if they had gotten any in....they said no...my dad goes there to get some doll for my little cuz...and he sees some lady with 2 wiis in a cart...of course they were the last ones

ANd my other TRU probably will get some thursday. If not im not takin anymore days off I dont want to end up a bum lol

Taheen · 01-03-2007, 10:04 PM

Looks like a good day for us Texans!

(Wii is updating right now. Gotta love leeching off the neighbor's wifi)

hockeydude68 · 01-03-2007, 10:05 PM

I checked it for free before and my Target stores did say they got a few shipments in here and there that itrackr didn't show.

Today when I signed up finally (figured what's $2 compared to the gas I'm wasting) I must have gotten lucky because 30 minutes later I got an email from them and sure enough when I got to Target they had them. They said my timing was perfect, they JUST opened the boxes a few minutes ago.

xjoshuwaa · 01-03-2007, 10:07 PM

It seems like Target stores are getting them, is this the Midwest? or West Coast?

cmurdyl · 01-03-2007, 10:11 PM

help...dont know where else to turn. I am tied to eb games/gmaestop in central florida due to a gift card. i have called a dozen different ones every day at 9am for the past 10 days or so. Is the phone the best way, or should i just go every day. and if so what times are best??
please help... my roomates and i may have a breakdown on the horizon....

Chickenguy · 01-03-2007, 10:16 PM

You should probably try and go every day, if time permits. In my experience, the people on the phone at EBgames/Gamestop don't always know what they are talking about.
