Got my Wii this morning off Craigslist for $300. Not horrible considering sale tax on $250 is probably $20 bucks. I forgot about looking at craigslist. Its nice b/c there isn't any ebay juice. the local ebayers still wanted me to pay s/h even if I came and picked it up. Check craigslist if you are in a large metro. I don't think a $25 - $30 premium is all that bad.

What a great day, Bears Super Bowl, and a Wii. I probably won't get to any Wiiing until tomorrow. Waited a couple weeks for the Wii, have been waiting 21 years for another Bears Super Bowl.

BEAR DOWN!!!

got mine just about an hour ago, local target, I used a backdoor page, and one across town had 1 left when I called, lady said they couldnt hold it. So I grabbed my 4 year old, jumped in the car did about 80 over there, missed one cop that was gunning, got to the store, ran in, lady in electronics said they had none. So I was a little pissed, went to the service desk, and the lady there said "oh yea I just saw one get put on hold in the back" so she called the electronics girl over, and she said "we are supposed to hold these for Sunday, I just got a email, but since you told him we had one, go ahead and sell it. W00p!

I finally got my Wii, living overseas (american living in england) i wanted an US version since games and accessories are alot cheaper! and i will not be here forever. I ordered my wii thru Walmart.com (never again, walmart sucks) they sent my order in 4 packages, and 3 different carriers, talk about some BS, how hard is one box??? well i ordered on the 19th of Jan and received on the 5 of Feb. after all that crap atleast i finally have it!

I got My Wii on the 30th of Jan.. i hadnt preordered anywhere, but had been desperate to get one, and nearly a few times.. but just before i was about to cave in, i walked into tesco and found one that they had in that day. couldnt believe it.. i was already walking away before the spotty guy answered me cos i was expecting the answer to be the same as the other 50 answers i had. i got the Wii sports pack, extra wiimote with wii play, another nunchuck, the component hd/ed lead, zelda, rayman, redsteel, warioware.. i was like a little kid at the time.
