    Default Where to get an Xbox 360?

    I've been trying since November to get a Xbox 360, but I just have not had any luck finding one.

    Does anyone know where I can find one.

    Like for instance when does Bestbuy get 360's in.
    Also when does Circuit City and Target get their shipments in?

    If anyone knows anything please let me know!

    Wait another week or two and they will be everywhere, guaranteed.

    I was going from EB to EB in the same mall and happened upon a core late January. Just a few weeks ago I saw Best Buy with a cart full of them.

    I don't know where you live, but in my area, I've seen them, at regular MSRP, available at SHOPRITE, a regional grocery store chain. They've been there for at least a couple of months.

    Good News. I went to ebgames and they said that on Tuesday they would be getting some 360's in. So hopefully I will arrive in time to pick one up!

    They should be everywhere right now...but I guess not. Try Walmart, Future Shop, EB...as a few places.

    I've been looking (all be it not every day or calling every store) since their release and if the headline that GAC posted is on the money my prediction for getting a 360 is right on the money and will infact repeat how I obtained my PS2.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Your discount, or a family members discount?

    If yours, you live by me, work in the same store, and are really starting to creep my out...

    The Target I went to the other day, they had two cores in stock, and the only premium they had was just being bought. So I'd say, they're definately getting way more plentiful.

    The best time to check any store would be on Tuesdays or Thursdays. New media is usually released (in the US) on Tuesdays, so that's when most stores get new shipments. Most stores get new stock on Thursdays.

    Hope that helps...

    A lot of Best Buys should be getting some in around Thursday or so. I work at the Virginia BB Distribution Center and a lot of them passed through my hands today. I hadn't seen that many since a week before the launch.

    Well I'm going to check best buy this morning and see if they got any in. Then if they do not have a premium the ebgames near me said that they would have them in today after 3. So im crossing my fingers that I find one.

    ok.. today we had about twice as many as yesterday. I know that store 1022 got about 50+ (all premiums I believe).

    The Costco near me had about 40 360 premium bundles for sale. I almost bought another one for my brother.

    All EBs and Gamestops should have more starting Sunday, for the sale/promotions and all. Our store got a handful and we're expecting more before the week is out.

    Anyone know if you can just buy a premium console for 400 at EB store locations, or are you forced into buying bundles like they do online?
