Where oh Where is Wii?

Wii by Nintendo

Soooo, who scored a Nintendo Wii this year?

As Christmas nears, I’ve heard from near desperate shoppers who are still in pursuit of the elusive game.

My sister called from the Midwest, asking me to check stores here, as if it’s readily available in the South.

A friend said she and her husband got up at 4 a.m. and went to two stores (including Best Buy) before they found a line with fewer than 10 people. They finally got one…

Another friend said the kids are getting an IOU to be filled on their birthdays.

Did you get one? If not, what are your plans for getting one?

Got one! Before Thanksgiving - Wal-Mart told us trucks come in around 10:00 am and a friend was there at 10:00 on a Wednesday and got it. Then last weeke I was in Game Stop and saw a new one and an old one.

Got one as well!!! Started in November. I made daily stops at Target, Best Buy, Game Stop and/ or Toys R Us. Finally got one at Target. My little boy worked so hard this year & truly deserves it.

Merry Christmas

We got one! My husband went to five different places. At the last store, he got there right when they were unloading them. Should have bought them all and sold them on Ebay……
