Wii fit - Stock/where to buy

Toothfairy4

I think that stock which hasn't been picked up that day must get released again after the stores close around 6pm, there seemed to be a lot appearing last night at that time, but only one or two at a time at each store x

You have obviously ben lucky - all 10 stores in the vicinity of me have none through either website or phone at various times tried.
In principle it all sounds so simple but you cannot speak to a store directly - you get sent in a mammoth circle even when ringing a local store number that eventually ends you up back with - cannot reserve!

I even have a reservation number given to me for one some 25+ miles away but can I ring to check its definately available before setting out on a possibly wasted journey - no! So I think I'm going to chance it but it could just be petrol money down the drain if they deny it or say its not possible since no reservations are being taken!

Uurrhhh!

There is no direct number on the argos site, but I have just checked the website for the shopping centre which my local argos is in and it seems to have a direct number! Maybe if you could do similar or check the phone book?

hope you are lucky i wasn't i was given a res number from a kind member on here and drove all the way there with a 6 year old a 3 year old and a 9 month old all in a bad mood had a complete nightmare getting there in time just to be told by a member of staff that it isn't a reservation number for there store and the store they thought it was for was even further away and was about to close. it was a complete nightmare i could of cried. but i was lucky the next day i managed to get to town early and get one from game. been using it for a week now lost a couple of pounds and am totally addicted to it its brilliant so good luck to everyone still trying:beer:

Thanks to all who tried offering helpful suggestions - for Toothfairy I did google for the store direct number - it gave a different 0845 number which I rang and stated it was the Argos at that location I wanted but still it went into an automated system that eventually put you back onto the centralised reserve automated line - thanks anyway.

All that said my quest paid off with a 100 million thanks to Fro-ald who left a message yesterday regarding a reservation she could not use. I took a gamble, drove the distance and got my Wii fit - hurrah! Comisserations to Tiff25 who did the same but lost out - I can understand your dissapointment! To add to my delight, I even got a tenners worth of nectar points off it - mind you what with the petrol costs and a possible speeding fine enroute home it may still turn out to be an expensive purchase! Hope it was all worth it and now I can get back to having a normal life..... good luck everyone still waiting

THANKS PLANKEY!!

Just been on a 3 hr round trip (free fuel so dones't matter) to pick up the Wii Fit from Newport. Thank you sooo much - OH just setting it up now!

Toothfairy4

Picked mine up this morning and it's fab!! Actually feels like your doing some exercise - especially the aerobic ones

Skint_Catt

Its sooo hard but fun! Some of the Yoga ones and Muscel workout were nearly impossible but practice makes perfect! Love the aerobics ones - hula hoop, down hill skiing, ski jump and jogging! Goodbye excess weight!!!!!!!

Says it out of stock now on Tesco. Its now out of stock at Viking direct too, which was the next cheapest retailer with the item in stock. None of the other stores have been showing the item as in stock today according to the stock checkers.
