Wii availability

I work at Toys-r-us and when we get them in there is a line waiting outside the store before it opens because a lot of people call and ask when we get them in so they can wait outside, you don't have a chance in hell of getting one if you aren't waiting outside the store about 3 hours before they open. It's crazy how much demand there is for them, but hey they are hot sellers and right now Nintendo is keeping the demand high.

Yea Im a vendor at Walmart and they get there shipments usually tuesdays. They seem to get from about 8-20 depending on the store size, the bigger the store the more they seem to get. In less than an hour they are gone. If your still desperate for them try your local walmart on a tuesday around 10-11, once they are checked in.

What do you vend, warpath. I've done Pep. Farm bread for a while. Walmarts are so annoying with their Harris Teeter type of check in system. One vendor allowed in at a time, while Im standing out in the rain getting product all wet.

Electronics dept, I do the movies, books, kids books, sell comcast or satellite tv. It definitely sucks, but the positive is that I dont have a boss directly watching me every day. I havent seen my boss in about 4 months.

I happened to be at a store today when they were delivered. I got one if anyone is still looking for one. I think they are getting easier to get now though.
