So, I have officially given in and purchased a Wii. And let me tell you, obtaining a Wii is no feat to be brushed off as some easy task. You can't just waltz into your local Stuff*Mart and pick one of these things off the shelf. Two Sundays ago, I woke up and decided -- hey, why don't I check out all of the weekly ads for the local area and see if anyone is advertising the Wii. It turned out that Target had them, and it turns out that target is basically across the street from where I live, so I got in my truck and drove over there -- not to mention the bonus fact that I had a gift card to Target. When I got there, my heart was still rushing because I knew they opened over an hour ago, and the would have a limited quantity available. As I arrived at the electronics department, I noticed a woman purchasing one, with a huge smile on her face, and almost tears of joy as if she had just won a gold medal in the olympics. Anyway, I asked the trusty staffer if they had anymore, and as it turned out they still had three (note: the guy later told me that they started with like 25 about an hour ago)... and after I purchased one, another customer came up to by one -- those things go like hot cakes! On a side note, I forgot to use my gift card in the process.
