Default Wii fit help

I'm trying to get a Wii Fit for a friends birthday but can't get one anywhere.

Anyone know of somewhere that has them in stock?

Cheers.

Default list ?

Get a list of places that does do them ie dixons, currys, game, etc and call around and ask. Short of that there is always ebay ?

Completely unhelpful but I'm addicted to Wii Fit I don't think it weighs you too accurately, but some of the activities are actually fun in a warped sense!

Hmmm don't fancy paying £99. I have already tried searching the nearest 10 Argos and rang a couple of Curries but no one seems to have any stock. An IOU might be the best way.

Id do them a favour and get them something else!

The thing is a gimmick..very cool I admit but quickly becomes boring
The ridiculous hype over it is totally unjustified.

Shouldnt complain tho, bought one on release day for £65, sold it a month or so later for £90
