I saw a notice from Walmart saying they would be taking online orders starting at 3:00 PM EST. I camped on the catalog page on the website at 2:55 and started refreshing. I got a blue "Add to Cart" button after about the 5th press, but by the time I got to the pay screen it would tell me it was temporarily out of stock. I just kept backing up and refreshing and I'd get it again and again (lost track of the number cycles) until finally it was requesting my payment method information.

After getting to the payment screen, and hitting "confirm your order", I got another "this item is temporarily out of stock" message again. When I'd back up to the order screen, it was still waiting for me to confirm. After about a dozen or so other attempts, I finally got a purchase to go through and I'm now confirmed with a delivery date of "by January 8th"! I'll be frolicking in the promised land with you other lucky Series Xers before too much longer.

I was able to snag a Series X on Amazon today. Should be at my house by Sunday, pumped for next week!
