cerki01 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I know that they have been around but we thought grandparents would be giving it. I even called and told them when available. They just want to give the kids money but it is the only thing on our kids list. Am I nuts to think I will be able to find one at this point? I have been checking online and they are sold out everywhere. Have not hit the pavement yet though. I would love any ideas about where to find one.
bharper44 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Heck no, its not too late! I am surprised at how many I have seen in the stores lately, especially at Target. Good luck!
irishkateek Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I walked into Walmart Sunday morning and they had several of them so I picked one up. The salesperson said they had received a shipment on Saturday morning, put 1/2 out on Saturday and saved the other half for Sunday. Maybe I just lucked out but you might want to try them around 10 AM or so and you may just get lucky too.
Stowasser Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Our Target had full shelves a week ago but keep looking, its out there.
debbieshops2003 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Our Toys R Us has had a whole bunch of Wiis every time I've been in there. I'd get it when you see it because they keep selling out. But they keep getting them back in. I don't think they are going to be as hard to get this year. You still have time. Just keep looking you'll find them.
cerki01 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 WooHoo....Thanks everyone. I will be out first thing Saturday morning!
theboyzmom Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 our Sam's Club gets them in pretty frequently also
lbuzz52 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 forgive me for not having better details, but i read somewhere that they would be in an ad on sunday, so check your paper and be there when the store opens if you dont find one by then
jdrd90 Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I'm trying to get one too. I know they are out there but each time I come across one I just don't have the extra cash to get one. We have several names that we have taken off of the angel tree this year and I just can't buy the wii until I get all I want for the angel tree. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I can still get one in a couple of weeks.
vonnyb Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 One of friends just got one from bestbuy and we found them in costco back in Oct. good luck
Mikesgirl Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 I got a wii just this past Thursday evening at Gamestop and they are in just about every ad in todays paper.
jenirvt Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 I can't find them anywhere around here! DH wants one. I went all over town yesterday. One of the stores I asked at (Best Buy), the sales guy said "Ma'am, you do know that's one of the 'top 3' Christmas gifts this year, so it will be very hard to find...?" He was very sarcastic about it. I figure I will just give up now and get DH the Wii for his birthday or something. I'm not one to spend every extra minute I have out looking for it!
jmyersfl Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 Walmart.com is supposed to have "thousands" on Monday.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28098655/
KBsDarling Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 not sure where you are located but we stopped today at Target in Ft. Wayne IN after a swim meet and I kid you not they probably had 20-25 just sitting there
cerki01 Posted December 8, 2008 Author Posted December 8, 2008 I found mine in Game Stop Friday evening.
Burnt_toast82 Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 We got one yesterday from Fry's. They had a TON in stock.
jerseygirl Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 I've held off too - good to know so many of you found some around! THANKS
amyandkids Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 I didn't know if they were going to be hard to come by this year or not so I snagged one on Amazon a few weeks back. They actually had them available for a good week before they sold out. No tax and free shipping was awesome and the extra bonus was that I didn't even have to leave my house!
ni4ni Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Unfortunately not all of us get "no tax".Items sold by Amazon.com LLC, or its subsidiaries, and shipped to destinations in the states of Kansas, Kentucky, New York, North Dakota, or Washington are subject to tax.
Mikesgirl Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B0009VXBAQ/ref=nosim/oubl-20hurry while they still have them...
naturegirl Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Wii is still available at Amazon if anybody wants it......HURRY!!!
