I can't believe what I found today!

I was at Target getting some meds refilled... Just walking around, looking at Halloween items (my favorite time of year is fall), checking out the clearance stuff.... I decided to check out the electronics area to see what they might have and, while this is a not clearance score, I was SPEECHLESS to find it: A Wii!!!!! DH and I decided this would be our three kids' "big" gift - obviously it'll be a combination gift for them to share. However, since trying for over 2 weeks to find one in stock, I was amazed to find not one, but four of them in stock! Even the employee who came over to help me was shocked - he said they'd been OOS for seven weeks! So, the items (other accessories to go with it) have been purchased and are stashed away, so the sneaks can't find them.

I just had to share.... I was beginning to think this might be like the Hannah Montana concert tickets (sadly my luck hasn't changed with that ).

LOL!! I've had a few friends who "found" Wii's like that. They'll just turn up somewhere!

I hope you and your family enjoy your Wii system as much as we do!

We walked into Costco and found about 10 Wiis on display near the cash registers. My fiance and I had only played it once at my sister's house and loved it (we are big kids at heart), but we walked past them. We have an XBox 360 already, and a never really touch the thing. We checked out and I kept looking back at the Wiis. I looked any my DH-2B and said "do you want one?" and he practically jumped up and down like a 5 year old.

Needless to say, we've been Wii-ed and it is great!

I get quite a workout playing the game! Best exercise ever!!!

I've got one hidden at my moms house for the kids for Christmas. I figured we wouldn't be able to find them if we waited. I can't wait until Christmas!!!! LOL

love it!

we bought one this summer, and we all have fun with it. my kids have gotten into the bull/cow racing game on the WiiPlay disc. It's cute. We kids also have lots of fun making their own Mii characters.

congrats on the find. It did take us quite a bit of effort to find one!

My DH got me one for Valentine's day and our whole family loves it. We are videogame freaks and we especially love Mario games and I had Mario Party 8 the day it came out...now if my 4 yr old son would stop beating me at this game I would enjoy it a lot more. LOL.

Enjoy you Wii and welcome to the club!
