^nah, ebay has them for over $300 most of the time. The cheapest Wii you can probably get is for $250

A retail store. Everyone else wants to rape your wallet. They know Wii is a hot and rare item so they will sell you a console at about 300-500 dollars. And so called "bundles" are even worse. Even Wii Fit is being sold at higher than MSRP prices.
A good idea is to make friends with a retail clerk. They often hide games/consoles for friends.
GOOD LUCK!!

It depends what country ur from, if your from Europe, like myself you may want to look at GAME, assuming its a first-hand console your after, otherwise try amazon UK (or FR or w.e) because ebay is known for.. lets say.. forgetting what region consoles r from ;-)

In fact, our company, Qmania, will be handing out 11$ Wii's upon our launch September 1st, along with other merchandise such as; LRG and HIC clothing. Qmania will also give away limited edition gear for free or access to buy awesome product for a ridiculous price (like $11 Wii's) randomly throughout the day, but focused on folks that drop in early or regularly.
Thanks

If you have a Costco membership, then definitely go there. They're the only place I have seen Wii's for a discounted price. They also have a Brawl/GC Controller bundle for $300 (not completely sure about price).
