I'm excited...!
The Wii I won at auction arrived! I haven't set it up yet; I had to work the weekend and decided to wait until my days off.
And even more excitment...I had been looking for Wii Fit at a "reasonable" price. Even on eBay, they're going for well in excess of $125. As much as I wanted one, I just wasn't going to pay that much over the retail price. So I kept looking at the online stores. But everyone was sold out or selling at outrageous prices. So I waited.
Finally...
last Thursday, Walmart.com had Wii Fit in stock! And the price was $89, so I ordered one right away. I was so stoked!
I had to run some errands and when I got home, I had an email saying it was back-ordered and they didn't know when it would be shipped! Talk about disappointed! Then, at work on Friday, I thought, maybe one of the local Walmart stores would have it in stock. Long shot, I figured. I decided if I did find one, I could either cancel the on-line order or when I got it (capitalist that I am), sell it on eBay for an outrageous amount (hee..hee!)
I checked out one of the stores, and no, it wasn't in stock, so I headed home. I didn't check any other stores because I was exhaused by then. When I got home, I had an email saying it was shipped! I won't get it until maybe as late as the 16th, but at least it's on the way!
Joy, Joy, Frabjous joy! I was doing the happy dance now!
