[Edit: Check our Black Friday Post for the latest info on all the Black Friday deals]
Black Friday:
The term "Black Friday" originated in Philadelphia in reference to the heavy traffic on that day. More recently, merchants and the media have used it instead to refer to the beginning of the period in which retailers are in the black (i.e., turning a profit).
This might actually be the first Black Friday where the Nintendo Wii might actually be in decent stock... After taking a close look at our Black Friday Summary list, we thought we would analyze some of the better Wii gaming deals out there this year.
Apparently Sam's Club is the place to pick up a deal on a Ninteno Wii bundle. Sources point to a $425 price tag which comes with the following goodies:
- Wii Console w/ Wii Play
- 3 Wii Remotes & Nunchuks

While you are at Sam's Club, make sure to pick up Wii Fit for $78.84 as well.
