So, there was a rumor that Best Buy would get a bunch Wii s this morning... Best Buy, at least the ones in our area open up at 11 AM. So, our lazy butts plan to arrive just slightly before the store opens... 10:50 AM.
And, guess what? There was a long line... And then, we found out that some people had tickets for a Wii... these were handed out earlier, and the people with tickets were the one guaranteed a Wii.... We spoke with some people that were there from 6 AM! God, no way for us... we'd rather pay the extra 100 and deal with Ebay.
So, we're thinking... there's no way... but heck... a few minutes and the store will be open... and maybe... just maybe...
Once we get in, the manager requested that the people with tickets get into a line, so half of the people went to the line and the others sadly meandered in the store... and one by one, the people in the line were handed their treasured and beloved Wii... Well, bf and I decided to split up. I went to the main area of the store in search of a possible Wii hidden on the shelves, and he stayed in line even though we did not have the magic ticket...
By the time I get back, defeated, there was no one in line except my whitey bf, two asian kids (they were friends), and another whitey... none of which had any golden ticket.... But AHA! three people with tickets had not come to claim them!!!! Well, in comes this kid, and he has a ticket, so then there were only two...
Then out of nowhere, this middle aged dude (that we had not seen in the line) comes and the manager claims that he will vouch for the older dude that he was here early...
Well, the nice whitey waiting for a Wii said that we were before him and the two asian guys...
So, we got the last Wii... magic number 30 Wii!
Look. Our cat even likes the Wii... she's nuzzling the edge...
And, if you haven't played with the Wii... Let me just say that it is different from any other game console!
