Toys R’ Us may have Wiis on Sunday

The Wii hunt continues for many. Word has it that Sunday might be a day of Wii stocking at Toys R’ Us locations. I have heard this from a couple readers, as well as a few other sources. If we are going with the info that is making the rounds, your local TRU could have as many as 24 Wiis on hand.
============
GoNintendo.com had that luck. Try TRU on Sunday. I really hope you guys get one.

Circuit City's and Best Buy's nation wide will be handing out tickets for Wii's an hour before they open this Sunday, April 22.

I hear Toys R Us will do the same thing.

Thanks to you guys. I'll keep an eye on xpbargains and try this Sun! Since I can only take one shot, any suggestion about BB, CC, or ToysRUS? Thanks again!

CJTaKoZ · 04-19-2007, 10:38 PM

I think both BB and CC are locks if you show up early enough.

It seems a lot of targets in the area south of Cleveland got Wii's in today. I went to the one in Bedford early and they had about 6 or 7. I have a friend who works at another one nearby and they got the same. The inventory tracker lists about 10 in the area who got them in.

JoonKimDDS · 04-20-2007, 06:58 PM

ok, so are you guys telling me to go to Toys R us or Bestbuy on April 22nd?

Do you guys think iTrackr will show whether they have it or not a day before April 22nd or day after 22nd?

So I bought my Wii off someone on Craigslist in Chicago in early February. Worth every penny of the $30 markup considering their continued scarcity. I went into Target to buy a few things and they had Wii's in stock!!! (I stopped to see if they had Super Paper Mario, not sure if I am going to buy it yet). It was the first time I had seen one on the shelf. It's like seeing an endangered species. My boss hasn't actively been looking for one, but wanted one so I called and asked him if wanted one. He of course said yes.

So if you are around Lombard IL, Target had at least 6 as of 15 minutes ago.

Call them both up on the 21st, about an hour before store closing and ask if they will have them on the 22nd. TRU didn't deny it when I called them before a delivery, Best Buy shouldn't lie to you either.

then show up in front of one of the stores 2 hours before it opens. I was at TRU only 1 hour before opening and the people in front of me were the last to get one. Luckilly a few days later I called a couple local Gamestops after work and one of them had one.

a smart guy named JoonKimDDS wrote a thread that answers your question right before you posted. Please read before you post...

woke up this morning, went on Itrakr and saw 2 targets with them in stock. jumped in my car hauled ass down there and got there 30mins after doors opened. no one in the electronics dept and didn't see any wii's on the floor, so i was worried they had sold out already. asked the guy, "i heard u got wii's today". guy replied "yeah, u want one?" .... um let me think about that...yeah?!. so he goes in the back and brings me one. happy day happy day.

so cali hunters: wake up and get to TARGET in FULLERTON (orangethorpe or malvern locations)!!!!

JoonKimDDS · 04-21-2007, 06:00 PM

hey guys I have a question.
iTrackr said the circuit city near me has them in stock but when i called them, a guy told me that they will have them tomorrow morning. What does this mean??? do iTrackr tell me before or after they have them in stock?
