"we're in the money"

if you haven't heard, dust and i have gotten into the lucrative dealings of ebay. we hope to make a small fortune selling wii's. we have two that we are planning to sell. hopefully they go for a lot of money. we were really excited to actually get the wii's on our first few hours of looking. it was almost like dealing with the mafia to get one, though, because the gaming store was very secretive about even having wii's to sell. first dustin went in. and asked. one guy said he would "go look" to see if they had any wii's--while the other dude went and got the wii and put it in a bag in the back room of the store. coming back with a bag, dust's day was made. then we went and got cash and i went in. my transaction was not nearly as smooth or as quick. i go in and follow dustin's protocal. asking quietly for the wii. they go in the back and package it up for me. i tell them i am buying it for my nephew in arkansas. nice use of the accent, i know. so as i am paying for the wii, their computers completely crash and i am left not only not holding my $340, but also not holding my wii in a bag. so i wait for what seems like an eternity, but is probably only slightly less than an hour. then i emerge with my wii. nice. we follow up the wii purchases with in and out burger. what a celebration. one wii is on sale now--so happy bidding. :) only kidding. but if this goes well, we know when another shipment of them comes in at target. so if you need a wii, we are in the know.
