Spot me a Wii Fit?

[QuassEE]

If you see a Wii Fit--let me know.. I decided to get one for the kids for Christmas--but apparently, so did everyone else. I used to see them in stores all the time, and now they're sold out everywhere.. (Doesn't help that the price was lowered to $89.99)... I would love to get one, but don't want to be slaughtered on the price.. If you see one at an online store, please let me know... If you see it in a B&M and are brave enough to pick it up (running the risk, I suppose, of someone else doing that very same thing at that very same time..) then go for it.. They're selling for a premium on eBay right now, so there's no risk to having a spare.

Apparently Sams had them for $85.xx, and I know Target, Walmart, etc all have the sale price if you can actually get them. I almost got a bundle at Target, but after $20 shipping plus state tax I couldn't really justify it..now I'm more or less kicking myself, though.

walmart.com is suppose to have bundles today!! Thousands and thousands someone said.

I got mine the day it came out last year for 79.99. But, I just got my sister one(from my bil) 2 weeks ago. I found out at www.gottadeal.com that the wii fit was going to be available at amazon.com for 89.99 at 12:01pm.... I was online at 11:58 and kept refreshing... I scored one at 12:02pm...just make sure all your info is saved on the computer(your credit card, bank, or whatever you use to pay on amazon) cuz they go FAST! It was sold out in 5 minutes.

Hope that helps. Also, check out sites like wii tracker(just google it) that is how my sister scored her wii last year and how my other friend scored her wii fit this year.

Hope that helps! Wii fit is so much fun! i have lost 10 pounds with it. But, since running over my leg I haven't been able to work out. It is hard work on wii fit. ;-)

I better keep my 125lb 5'7" son OFF the Wii Fit or he'll waste away, from the sounds of it!! :)

I've been watching Walmart.. but it's 6:20am and I've yet to go to sleep, so I think I'm going to end up doing that.. TRU has been frustrating because it keeps claiming to be in stock, but then you put it into your cart and it says it's out of stock.. so the notification tool doesn't work :( It's also confusing the Wii Tracker site..

I'm going to be in the US this in about 6 hours so I'll pop into a few stores then, I suppose... I'll be in a small enough town that you just never know.

We got ours at Target. Their stock comes in on Sunday morning, and they open earlier than anyone expects them to (8am?) so there wasn't anyone there, except the people who were doing the same thing we were. Anyway, you can call the local B&M and ask when they're getting a delivery, then be waiting in line when the doors open.

[crunchierthanthou]

they're on amazon right now!

go! go! go! (http://www.amazon.com/Wii-Fit-Nintendo/dp/B000VJRU44/ref=sr_tr_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1228759609&sr=8-1)


and... they're gone. :(

[northernmommy]

Let me know if you don't find one today Nicole, I can look when I go into town tomorrow (unless you wanted one from the US?). I know they had some at Walmart in FSJ last week.

[sopapia]

i saw one at costco a few weeks ago. i thought abt getting it for a split second... but we don't have a wii. if i see it again, i'll get it.

[Judi]

Do you have to same phone # I got from you at lifesavers? If so I will call if I find one at a B&M.

[QuassEE]

Lifesavers # was the Portland one?? 503? 604 318 6597 is my cel if anyone wants to text if they spot it. I'll probably remove that out of my post in a few days...

Costco had nada.. I went to 7 different stores today.

[Judi]

Ok, I switched it. Will start looking tommorrow.

You should get the new game you do on your butt. Seriously it's real!

[syoung]

I see there's a Wii Fit in stock here right now

And you get a 15% cashback if you pay with PayPal

Have you tried it?

I edited the affiliate link (to Overstock.com) out of your post. Please don't post affiliate links in the S&Ds forum, since we try to keep our posts and advice as unbiassed as possible. Affiliate marketing doesn't reflect an unbiassed atmosphere in the forums.

I did look at Overstock, but their pricing doesn't reflect the price reduction that happened a while back.. They're way overcharging for that bundle, and I really don't feel that desperate that I should overpay so significantly. I'd rather get it after Christmas versus allow a company to "take" me simply because they happen to have an item in stock. It's almost insulting when companies do that.. :(

[syoung]

Ok Nicole. Sorry about the affiliate link. I didn't know it was not allowed.

What game? I am going to have to go look it up now. Do you know the name of it?

[*Spoiledinmyhouseofblue*]

Just wanted to let you know they are at target.com right now wii fit with mat for 114.00! Hope that helps! I sent you a pm too!

[QuassEE]

Baaah nothing there now.. I just got back from getting the kids to school, I should just sit in front of my computer :(

[crunchierthanthou]

Have you signed up for the Amazon text alert service (it's under the buying options box)? That's how I managed to get the one yesterday. I got a message at 11 saying they would be in stock at 10 AM PST. I saw it right away, opened a new tab, and found wii fits listed at $89.99 (MSRP) but when I clicked on it they were only giving me alternate buying options starting at ~$150. I was pretty bummed that they were sold out in literally 30 seconds. But I refreshed a minute later and had the option to buy direct through amazon for the $90 price. :thumbsup: I came and posted here then went in again through dh's account to try and get one for my sister and they were already gone. Although, I'm not sure if this will be much help for you. I signed up last week and didn't get a notice until yesterday. Mine won't even ship until the 15th. If it's the same situation next week, it might not be there in time for Christmas.

[QuassEE]

Unfortunately the Amazon text service only works with US carriers, and my cel phone is Canadian! I tried!

HA! That is freakin' hilarious!!!

[solmama]

They're in stock here: http://www.etoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/4829120/ctid/19/INstock/Y/D//SkuNo/730108
right now, at least.

[QuassEE]

Nope.. eToys and TRU both have it so that they look in stock, but when you go to add it to your cart it tells you that it's out of stock.. Frustrating!

[Synchro246]

My husband is getting one thru a friend who's a manager at best buy. IO don't think I could ask for two. . .don't we have a poster who's DH works at best buy? ;):whistle:

[Synchro246]

Oh, and we downloaded tetris to our wii and it has a balance board game. I can't wait to play it!

[northernmommy]

here: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300279279511

if you get this in the next few minutes, and teh bidding doesn't go through the roof!

[QuassEE]

The "winner" is..... solmama
...who kindly let me know that Dell Home just got them in stock (it's also showing on the Wii Fit tracker).. even though I had to pay an extra $21 in shipping and state tax, at least it's done and it's a load off my mind now :)

Thank you to everyone for helping me out!

-Nicole.

[crunchierthanthou]

I know QuassEE got hers, but they'll be in stock again at amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Wii-Fit-Nintendo/dp/B000VJRU44/ref=sr_tr_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1229453592&sr=8-1) at 11 AM PST. The one I ordered last week wasn't supposed to ship until yesterday, but it arrived about 10 minutes ago.

and they're out of stock again. I think that half an hour may have been a record.

[vamom]

So I should be happy that I preordered? It actually took over a week after the release to get it. There were all over teh stores here for a day or so then - zilch.

[hsjwmom]

Available at Amazon again....Score!!!

And they're gone...again. ;)

[popsicle]

I want it, but only because you need the balance board to play all of the games on Rayman's Raving Rabbids 3. :D I can wait until they're readily available though, seeing as we actually use our Wii like, once a month.
