Sam, I did fall in love with your Wii and that is why I'm wanting one. I laughed so much trying to do the skiing thing that I thought I might fall off the balance board. Hopefully co-ordination improves with time.

The quest for Wii Fit continues. Thank you to Texasfal for the suggestion.

Bare, I told you to try Amazon for the Wii Fit. Take a look!

I called Target in Lady Lake and Leesburg. They both say they don't have Wii Fit!! (If they have them, they're keeping them a secret so they can sell them in their Thanksgiving sale).

Chels, I am skeered of buying things on the computer. If they arrive and don't work, I'm sure it would be a PITA to return them. It seems safer to get them somewhere locally. I know you are confident buying stuff on the puter, but I guess I'm just an old dog who is finding it hard to learn new tricks.

Also, on Amazon, they advertise bundles and Wii Fit 5 and all kinds of stuff and I have no idea what they're talking about. I need to talk to a live body.

According to my daughter (our family technogeek) this website is frequently updated. Maybe it will help?

Scroll down the page for more stores.

I'm told the stores open at 6 AM on Black Friday and if an item is "hot", the stores have a very limited supply (which they advertise to drawn purchasers to the store). I'm told it is necessary to line up at 4 or 5 AM to score a hot item.

I don't know if that is true or not, sounds barbaric. We don't have Black Fridays in Canada so I don't know how it works here in Florida.

If I bought a Wii, would there be a possibility of me cutting down my hours spent on TOTV?
