So, when I checked there in early January, they had two Wii's. EVERYONE else, Best Buy, Target, everyone was sold out. I think they send every Super Walmart the same number or something, and there is just not the demand in the smaller towns.

I just called the Walmart where I bought Melissa's to see, and they are out also, but it may be worth calling around.

Good Luck!! and I know how frustrating it is to be ready to buy something you really want, and not be able to get it. Did you try Walmart online?

We had our local Walmart call every Walmart even remotely close to us and no one had one.

But I haven't looked on walmart.com yet. I will try that right now. Thanks for such a wonderful idea!!

Even Walmart.com is out of stock...

Hang on to the money and keep trying. You'll catch one if you don't give up.

We will. He's feeling much better now. Having one of his favorite dinners cooked for him and then some extra attention from his wife has helped.

He is a good guy...and we don't often buy expensive or "unnecessary" things so I hate that this (for now) has been a big let down for him...

Maybe it'll mean that much more to him when he gets it though...

We were at Best Buy last night and they had the Wii. I didn't realize they are so small. They had one at the mall too and I watched this guy playing it. My son wants one so bad, but we have bought him 3 different game systems as he was growing up and told him, no more. He is looking forward to a summer job and that's the first thing he wants to buy.

Angie, maybe your Best Buy can transfer on from Janet's Best Buy. Won't hurt to ask!!

That's a thought....have you tried Best Buy online? The zip code for the Lafayette store is 47905 if that will help.
