Circuit City Also Holding Wii’s Until Sunday | The Wii Experience Said,
December 13, 2006 @ 11:12 pm
[…] Along with the news that Best Buy will be holding all Wii’s until Sunday the 17th, and more news that GameStop is holding their Wii’s as well, we at The Wii Experience have received an inside tip from someone that works at Circuit City who says they too are holding their Wii shipments until Sunday. We do not know if this is the case for all Circuit City stores. This is said to be done by stores as they know it will bring extra traffic to their stores on that day in one big lump as opposed to the random folks that happen to find the minor amounts they do get in during the week. I would be willing to wager this is something all of the big players are doing so if you’re looking for a Wii, your best bet is going to be waiting until Sunday and hitting them all up. Get there early in the morning, yes, people will be camping out for them still. Share and Enjoy:These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages. […]
