Default Yes! I got it from Costco, but I have to wait till Christmas...

I can't believe my luck. My mom told me my dad just walked into Costco right when they got the new shipment. Has an extra wireless controller, the Play-and-Charge kit, PGR3, and the remote. Sad part is, I have to wait until Christmas. All well! At least I know I have it!

The problem is as follows:
I wanted the 360 for Christmas for about 3 months now. I was kinda sick of not being able to get it, so I thought I would get a new computer instead. I told my parents and my dad got super mad at me, and I didn't know why. I told my mom the final decision was to get the computer, and she looked kind of distraught. Then it hit me: "You already have it don't you?", I said. So she told me about it yada yada yada. My dad wanted it to be a surprise, so now that I know I got it, I didn't want the comp. any more. I told my dad and he seemed a bit happier. But, he doesn't know I know that they got it for me. So that's why I can't even look at it. My parents went out lat night and I found it in my dad's trunk, but I didn't take it out because I didn't know when they would be back. Tha's why I can't test it (or see it for that matter).

I got the same bundle at costco. We got a call from my aunt and she said they were there, so we drove over and picked one up. But mine was deffective, it froze like every 30 mins, so u might want to give your mom a head s up before the holidays, cuz microsoft will def. be overloaded with 360's after chirstmas, for the same reason u have. Most arent getting theirs untill Christmas. Therfore there will be more problems after christmas, then before. So if you can let her see if it works with your dad cuz their might be a problem with the costco shippments, or just your. But it all depends you could get lucky. I would check if i were you thats all im saying.

Yea, but my mom told me not even to tell my dad (hint him at that matter) that I know. Maybe... maybe I could hint him into letting me test it:
"Hey Dad, if you happen to get Xbox 360, maybe I should test it just in case. Maybe it might not work, and we could get another before Christmas."

dont go getting the kid all worried! There is about a 97% chance that it will work fine, just cause someone who bought one at costco had it break dosent mean anything. if some one wrote that they had the unit that they got from target break, i woulnd panic and guess that they shipped all the3 defective units there, its not like costco is going to have any more of a chance of sellind dft'd units. please be sensible now. and its just better if he keeps his dad out of the loop, trust me stoke a couple of weeks ant gonna kill ya, just know that when its time its gonna be sweet!
