OT picked up our wii fit

[BitsnBearsMom]

and have spent the last 2 hrs playing it with the boys - it's really neat!! A definate hit here and a good workout to boot!! the balance games sure aren't easy either!! Just finished 'running' a race with my 14yo too - the lbs should melt off if I can wrestle the wii from them long enough!!

We're really loving ours. I tried everything out before the kids got home from school (the advanced step dance is my favourite but I'm really liking the yoga too) and then they discovered it after dinner. We had a hula-hoop challenge - that was a workout! It didn't take too long for the additional games to open up.

I'm hoping to pick one up this weekend - not sure how lucky I'll be but I've heard that Costcos and Sams have quite a few in stock. I do the balance board with my trainer at the gym and it is hard. I'm always telling him that I need more practice

I have to go get it in a week or two cause I have no money.

Can you explain what kind of workout it is? Aerobics? kickboxing? haven't seen it but probably should get it.
thanks

My hubby went out to pick ours up yesterday morning - it was my Mother's day gift so I wasn't searching for it! He started at Walmart - they had a lineup at 8am and sold out right away, headed to Toys R Us - they only had the amount they needed for preorders so none there, EBGames - same story, Future Shop - did not do preorders so had a bunch when the store opened. He managed to get one there but didn't think they had too many left when he headed out the door.
Definitely worth calling around when you're ready to buy - otherwise you may be wasting a lot of time and gas!

My daughter managed to find one at Blockbuster yesterday. Don't know how many they got in though. Sounds like it is going to be popular. I haven't tried it yet but she said it was fun.

My husband wanted to get me one for my bday but hasn't had any luck in securing one. He tried to preorder, but the stores weren't taking them anymore a few weeks before release date. He went to Best Buy after work but was told all 90 units were gone during the day. So to those who managed to get one, you don't know how lucky you are!!! I'm probably going to have to wait months before the stores get enough in. I waited MONTHS to get Dance Dance Revolution for my Wii.

I'm looking for one to get for DH for father's day. I got the Wii for mother's day so it seems fitting.
