Wii Fit for Mother’s Day

Still looking for that perfect Mother’s Day gift? Maybe you should turn your attention to Wii Fit. Apparently Wal-Mart is. This weekend will mark the beginning Wii Fit domination for Wal-Mart’s website. According to Nicole Maestri of reuters.com,

“This weekend, the Walmart.com homepage will be dominated by the Wii Fit — a physical exercise program that uses a pressure-sensing board as a controller — including a link to order the product now, ahead of its May 19 U.S. launch. Through May 11, shoppers who “pre-order” the $89.74 game, or pay in advance to guarantee delivery when the game launches, will also get a $10 online gift card to use for a future order at Walmart.com.”

I’m not sure if exercise equipment is the “perfect” gift for mom. To me, it is like giving a person a mint. However, if you are clueless about what to get your mom this year, look to Wal-Mart and Wii Fit. To me, the bonus $10 gift card is great, considering the hefty $89.74 price tag. Just make sure your mom shares the Wii.
