Finding a Wii Tommorow morning
 
I am contemplating going out tommorow morning to find a wii. I live in Wichita and they have been sold out for about 2 weeks. I have basically all major chains available to me, which one do you think i would have the best chance of finding one?

Best Buy
TRU
Circuit City
Wal-Mart
Target
EBGames
GameStop
Other

Just trying to get a discussion started about this because i can see pros and cons to each...

The Wii wasn't mentioned in any Black Friday ads that I saw so I don't think you'll have any luck period Friday or Saturday. KMart was open today and people lined up at 4 AM to get one. Watch for the Sunday ads after Black Fridays; that's your best shot.

You guys really dont think that there will be any wiis at all tommorow? I thought they were holding their inventories until Black Friday is this incorrect?

Best idea is to call toys r us target walmart and some of the other big chains. Hopefully someone will tip you off when they get their shipment and you can wait on the morning of the shipment. If this doesn't work call back later.

If you saw some ads advertising it, I'd go to that store. But don't count on any stores having them. Also, it's black [censored] friday, if you even THINK about going shopping on that (this) day, you're out of your goddamn mind.

That being said, they've been sold out in Wichita for a lot longer than 2 weeks. Try 'since it was released, just like everywhere else'. I got lucky last winter and got to a target bright and early after a large snow to grab one. They had like 11, there were 15 in line, I was like 5-6.

Check the online ads of those stores for the most recent updates. That's how I got mine. Checked at around 3 or 4 am, and stayed up til they opened. That was a fun night.

what would be the benefit of waiting to buy a wii now versus say...any other time before now? Is it cheaper or did you just want a challenge?
