![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Nintendo Wii or Amazon gift voucher?!That is my query. WiiForFree have offered me a £179.99 Amazon gift voucher because it is taking so long and they are struggling to get Wii's. What do people think i should do? I'm thinking of declining for the following reasons. (1) I really want a Wii and would just wait till amazon got one in and use it for that, but the voucher wouldn't cover delivery which WiiForFree would. (2) I would accept it now if there was anyone offering them on Amazon marketplace for a reasonable price - say £200-£220 - so i could get one now but they are well over £300 and some are over £400!! (3) Being sensible for one moment, i have exams from 23rd February till start of March so maybe it would be best to wait till after then for one. What does everyone else think? |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Nintendo Wii or Amazon gift voucher?!Well i told WiiForFree that i would wait but now i'm thinking that when they do come in WiiForFree are likely to have a bit of a backlog and i might be waiting a while for them to send me one. So maybe i should ask for the voucher or cash and i can buy my own as soon as they are in the shops? There is a link above that some guy posted that tracks Wii availability. Again comments on that would be appreciated as that seems a good idea to me but what does everyone else think? |

![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Nintendo Wii or Amazon gift voucher?!Just wait I would say.. you say in your first post that you have exams until start of March so the Wii would just distract you from your studies, unless you have a very strong willpower! btw, you do know if you are to addictive to eXceem, we do offer to ban you during your exams so that you wont be to tempted to spend to much time surfing here and reading about getting freebies, instead of concentrate on your studies! Just let us know if you want to take advantage of this extra free service that we offer! Cheers Tom |

Everyone has made some good points but i'm going to message them and ask for a PayPal payment if they will do it. I went to Woolworths just now and my local one took my name as they are due to get some this week. I think all Woolies get them on a weekly basis if that helps anyone. I have pretty good willpower so i will use it as a reward at the end of the day if i study well. I'll probably be going to the library every day after tomorrow to do my studying so i reckon i'll be OK. Though everyone has made good suggestions and i totally respect the different points of view. Having said that they might decline the PayPal and say its amazon or nothing in which case i'll probably wait | |
