Wii! Yippee! Hooray!

Amazon.com was having its Thanksgiving sales promotions. They put three related items up for vote, and you can only vote once. Then, on the specific day for those items, if you voted for the winning item, you get into a lottery for a chance to purchase the winning item at a DEEP DEEP discount. So, the first day was for Thanksgiving day, and it was between a Nintendo Wii, a Sony Playstation 3, and Microsoft XBox 360. I had voted for the Wii. Then Todd was looking through his emails, and I told him he should vote. He was going to vote for the Sony Playstation 3, but I told him he should vote for the Wii because that one is going to win. So he did. Come Thanksgiving morning, we get emails from Amazon.com telling us to go check and see which item won, and if we won the chance to purchase that item. So I was upstairs when Todd ran up and said "I think I just won a chance to purchase one of the 1,000 Wii's at Amazon.com for $79!". I couldn't believe it. We never win anything. So he went downstairs and sure enough, he was able to purchase the Wii for $79! That was a deep deep discount from like $279. And look what it's selling for now!
