School Supply Shopping at Target Rewards Me With Wii Fit

My daughter and I headed out early this morning to get a few errands done.  Our last stop was not planned, but we decided to run in to Target to check out their binders, the last thing on her back to school supply shopping list.  Surprisingly, she managed to find the binder that she really liked and it was such a relief to know that she now has everything.

As we were leaving the store, we walked throught the electronics department.  We have a habit of doing this to check out the Wii games.  We never buy anything, but we do like to see if, by chance, anything we want might happen to be on sale.  So, we walked into the video game aisle and, there it was.  The first time I’d ever seen one in person.   A nice shiny white bog with big greeen letters on it:  Wii Fit.  It was sitting in the glass case, shining up at me and I could even see the words “BUY ME” flashing across my brain.

A quick call to my husband to let him know of the good news and the price, and then it was ours, and not a moment too soon.  I no sooner had asked a sales associate to open the case for me when another couple of ladies walked around the corner, disappointed that they had just missed getting it for themselves.  mmuuuuuhahahahahah!  It’s MINE!

I can’t wait to try it out.  :-D

    Saph – The Wii Fit was $90 at Target. I haven’t even taken it out of the box yet, but I bet I will today!

    You’ll have to keep us posted how it goes. My kids are just little enough that I am clueless about Wii. I would be interested, however, in any exercise stuff that I might actually use, besides to hang clothes on :) .
