Wii Fit......i Got It and Love It!

In summary, Erin's husband was out Thursday night trying to locate a Wii Fit and could not find one. Erin went to Electronics Boutique at the mall and was the second person in line. She asked the store employee if they had any more Wii Fit's for sale. The store employee said no, but the phone rang and it was a woman releasing her pre-order Wii Fit. Erin paid for the Wii Fit and the store employee gave her the Wii Fit. Erin and her children started playing the Wii Fit last night and it does a body analysis on you and the only thing you type in is your birthdate and height. The Wii Fit says that the average weight loss is 3 pounds per

Ok, are you all going to be thin and fit at Conference? I am jealous!!

I was intending on going out to get one for myself and then the transmission in my car blew up on the way home from my show on Sunday....aaarrrrghhhh!

You know how I hate to spend money, and DH is worse. So he fixed it himself yesterday after we towed it home ourselves (again, saving a large towing bill). Thankfully we only needed a radiator, transmission filter and fluid, antifreeze, some misc. parts and he changed the oil. Came out to around $300 (but would have been 5 times that had we had it towed and fixed at the dealer).

90,000 miles on a 2003 Dodge Neon -- it's was paid in full years ago. I DON'T WANT a car payment, I want a Wii!!

Could you really write the whole thing off? I'm thinking that the cooking game would be a stretch but you're even thinking the Wii?

Yeah! He fixed the car...next purchase, a Wii!

I seriously don't think so, BUT it would be worth looking into! I had a consultant on my team that was an accoutant in her former life~she wrote off her cable bill because she watched Food Network for tips! I am sure there are alot of things we can write off, but I am guessing a video game is streching it!

They fixed the site. I checked this AM and to my suprise my local walmart had them in stock. I called and the lady there said they just opened the boxes a few minutes ago. DH went and got it right away.
Thanks for that site, I was giving up on making calls every day.

Awesome, I'm glad it worked and you got one.
Our Wii Fit came Monday and I love it. Really gets you up and moving and having fun atthe same time, really takes the work out of getting some excercise.

Now ya'll have me looking for a Wii - I told Larry NO GAMES b/c we have no kids. I don't want him to become glued to the couch playing a game. We'll now we are getting one so we can do wii fit. lol
 
  • #114
There are NO wii fit in Little Rock, N Little Rock, Jacksonville, Cabot, Conway, Bryant, Benton, Maumelle, Sherwood or Mtn View. All but Mtn View right around our area - Larry's sister lives in Mtn View. Are you kidding me????!!!!! We have 14 wal-mart stores alone b/t all those towns & no wii fit! I called Toy's r Us, Circuit City, Best Buy, K-Mart, Target, gaming stores like EB or something like that - now I'm sad & still need to lose weight. :(

Kasey, have you tried using the website posted here itrackr.com? That helped me find what I needed. I was calling like 50 different places a day. Pulled that up and got one that day.
Happy SHopping

I know this is an old thread but I finally got a Wii Fit yesterday! I've been getting messages from itrackr for ages but no games were ever in stock in our town! I was on my way to another town for something yesterday & got a message that that town had them in stock! They still had 3 when I got there. I got 30 minutes in last night & I am feeling it tonight!!! Who knew that working out could be so fun & that a video game could make you hurt so much!!! I don't like my pudgy Mii either so I am determined to change it!!!

They also have the "attachments" for the controllers for the cooking game! THey are really cute! I bet you could write it off if you took it to a show and had it hooked up! It could be a game night!:love::D

I personally wouldn't be willing to stretch that far in taxes.

It is like a home office. You have to make sure you have the percentages right and the usage amounts right. I wouldn't want to risk and audit without documented proof.

You have to think about what you are selling...Wii cooking games or PC products.
