    Black Friday deals.. Wii for $224

    sams club wii $244 black friada deal
    Wow! that’s pretty good deal… if you’re lucky to get one. That ‘limited quantities” wording are the real kicker they actually means they only have 5 units in stock. I love black Friday but im not going to camp out outside of the store entrance at 2o’clock in the morning on a frigid mid-20s temperature just to save $70. I’ll pass.

    Update: Yay! it looks like the $244 was Photoshopped the correct price is $425.
