I did the Walmart layaway today. I was first and showed up an hour and a half after layaway opened. My store also has ZERO promotional materials for the WiiU. You wouldn't even know the system was coming out.

I also did the Wal-Mart layaway thang today.  I had tried to pre-order that stupid bundle on their website a month back, and now I'm glad that it didn't work out.  Would it still be a good idea to show up pretty early for the midnight launch even if I have one reserved?  I know with some stores a preorder don't mean a whole heck of a lot.
I got hooked on the white stuff back in the 70s.

Me too, I canceled my pre-order with Gamestop for the basic and put $131 at wal-mart for the deluxe today, I'm glad it turned out, I was hoping to get that version. Now to wait for Nov. 18th. Hope they'll have it at midnight like they did for GameCube.

Happy Camper I am, definately looking to Nintendoland.

Walmart layaway has a ton of fine print, but I think I have my head wrapped around it.  I was still able to put in a layaway order this past Saturday.  Seems they're still accepting them, but the clerk didn't know if that meant that I would be able to get the console at launch.  We'll see how it turns out.

Should be, mine tells me I can pick mine up as soon as 12:02am Nov. 18th, I heard Monday they've stopped taking any more orders. So Yay me! lol

If you did layaway, then you can't pick it up until you've paid it off.  So if you pay it off by the 18th, you should be able to pick it up then.

Although the clerk said I couldn't pay it off, but had to leave a penny?

right, at least two cents, so they can track it until it's out and paid for, I read it somewhere.
