I Got It!!!!

well, i would like to thank everyone in this section of the wii chat forum for helping me on my quest to search for and ultimately get a wii. i got one at k-mart today right by my house.

good luck to all the people who are still looking or waiting for a wii. remember, never give in to those idiots on ebay or amazon who sell it for a jacked up price. you will eventually get one. just wait, and good things will happen

hey i just grabbed a wii from my local blockbuster video.
funny thing is, people don't think about blockbuster when they think about buying a game console so they tend not to sell as quickly. i live in toronto, but blockbuster is in both in canada and the US, so there are a million to choose from.

forget trying at best buy or futureshop or walmart. everyone is checking there.

good luck.

that is actually a good idea, there is a blockbuster in lindsay, so maybe tomorrow when I try iceman games, zellers and the source again, i'll check blockbuster too

For those of you still on the hunt for a Wii, hit your local circuit city this Sunday. Availability has been confirmed. See the below link for a copy of next week's flyer, which advertises the Wii:

I have been watching the target in stock page and noticed all the targets in my area were showing in stock. Drove up to the nearest store and got one and there was still about 5 left.

alright look, im not scalping im buying them because i know how hard to get and maybe a friend would want it, i was just trying to help you out, i was expecting like 59000000 dollars, more like 270 because thats the price after tax. just thought it would be a help, and if no body wants it then ill return it, why don't you calm down.

I just got mine in at a North Dallas Target by using the Target backdoor site. When I got there they were flying off the shelf. Mostly moms buying them.

I wish Target would be consistent. I've just called three stores and they all said they were holding them until Sunday. I think somebody in the North Dallas store may be in trouble for putting them out.

muffin man

my price in english pounds is more in dollars over in america
but americas price for the wii is half of what you would pay in england like a knockoff price.

so really your price is best and secondly at least your getting stock, GAME the usual shop i go to they do not have any in stock but just a couple of days ago they get about 10+ in stock which is good for me because this is a first!
