Like many this season, I’ve been looking for the Nintendo Wii system at all of the big box stores but to no avail. This was going to be the Christmas gift my wife and I were going to share in this year. We received some nice accessory gifts like the Wii Fit, an extended battery and a couple of games. We just needed the box to plug everything into. Off from work for the holidays I was hoping I could get in a game of tennis right in the living room. But no luck – until today!
My quick thinking wife said, “Why don’t you try the local Pamida store?” The do have some electronics and it was worth a shot. An often overlooked destination for the main stream gadget shoppers, as they immediately gravitate toward the Best Buy, Target, K-Mart and Circuit City stores to name a few. Well low and frigging behold Pamida had them in stock! The woman at the service desk mentioned they had received around 50 before Christmas and the stock-dude who brought mine to the register mentioned there were about eight units left.
Pamida has stores in 17 states, primarily the Mid-West and the Upper Plains. So if you are still jonesin’ for your Wii, get thee to a Pamida – quick!
[editorial note: I don't have a cat. I don't even like cats. But my four year old will probably look like this after playing it for the first time.]
