I hate those stupid bundle stuff. It's because retailers don't make but a few bucks profit on the console itself, so to help put them on the black side, they do the bundles.
Last year I purchased a Wii at Gamestop. It was very close call too, because they did a pre-purchase deal for one day only, each store was preset for the amount allowed. The store I went to was only doing 6, some larger stores might've done more. But I got up real early, waited about 30 minutes or so for the store to open with two other people, and got it. The shipment came in 2 days after Christmas. The hardest part was leaving Kari in bed, and not waking her up before I got back, not to mention I only had like 20minutes to get ready for work.
That was the first time I ever went nuts trying to buy the hottest item of the year, and hopefully the last. But I'm glad I did.
