Only 312 shopping days left until Christmas. The new Nintendo Wii was one of the hot console commodities this last season – and it's still not in stock with regularity everywhere. The Wii has been modded, recalled, and turned into a new weight loss craze since the release late last year. The folks at FindNearby.net are helping you find what you're looking for with great immediacy. They're running the basic site that will map out where you can find a certain item for sale on amazon, ebay, craigslist, and local retailers like best buy, circuit city, wal-mart and target who have the item in stock. They've got a couple of special searches that will give you radius rings around your location showing you all the points inside the given area.

They've got a special search for the PS3 as well. Either search is perhaps the best way we've found to find something when you really need it right now.
