I want to get fit with Wii Fit, and I burnt a lot of calories trying to find it!!!
I don’t know what it is about high street retail at the moment, but they never seem to have what they should or they have a display model but no actual stock!
I have been in and out of a variety of stores who should have had games for sale, but have returned home after a whole days shopping with nothing to show for it other than a grumpy other half who would rather have gone walking in the woods rather than up and down a bus lane, past hundreds of dithering old people and families who appear to be in town only to buy some fast food or a coffee!
Hello Internet!
I know that ordering on the Internet can be easy, but I have still got that little part of me that wants to hold something in my hand before buying it – but this is seemingly getting harder and harder to achieve.
You would think in today’s financial climate, that high street retailers would be clambering over themselves to stock the items people want to buy and stop wasting time and money showing customers display models of products they have no intention of ever selling you.
Well, I soon got what I wanted: My Wii Fit game – with no hassles from Game Stock Online. The game was showing on the website, it had a picture, it had the price and it told me who actually had Wii Fit in stock! It was sooooo easy – Sold!!!!!! They got my money because they had what I wanted!!
This price comparison site says it is constantly updated with details about stockists and prices without the wasted hassle of the high street brigade! You can even subscribe to email alerts to find the best deal or another product you fancy.
So put your coat back in the closet, make a nice coffee and wait for the game to find you rather than the other way around!!

Some Apple iPhone Applications
If you’ve got your new iPhone, but have been showing it off to everyone that you haven’t had time to see what it can actually do, here are some simple and fun applications to get you started:
1) Crash Bandicoot Nitro (£6)
A silly but addictive version of MarioCart with a bandicoot instead. Great fun.
2) Truphone VoIP (Free)
Free calls to other Truphone users and great international rates.
3) Brain Challenge (£6)
A slightly cheeky take on a popular game, but just as fun.
4) Pennies (£1.80)
An income tracker that allows you (if you have the time) to track what you spend on what and how much you have left!
5) BeatNaker (£12)
This application allows you to make your own music using simple musical components but can be a bit fiddly to get used to.
