Where's the best place to buy an XBOX 360?

I was going to buy one from Gamerush but they (And Gamestop) are not taking preorders anymore. Anybody know where else? I live in Fort Worth which is close to Dallas for you non Texans. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Wait in line at WalMart. Order online at CostCo. Find another GameRush.

keep checking CostCo...they go in and out of stock fast. WalMart also (but you have to buy a big bundle)

I'm #1 on my GameRush list...so no worries for me. I think there are probably a few still open too.

The Gamerush lady called every gamerush within 30 miles of me and none of them had any spots left. They only ordered 10 apparently and those spots filled up.

Wow, I'm surprised...I knew they were only getting 10, but I'm almost positive there are only a few on my GR. My store must be dead or not known. I actually went to the Halo2 midnight launch...lame I know...I think there was maybe 10 people there

10 per store seems a little short. I'm willing to be bet there will be more spots opening when it gets closer to launch and they have a better idea of how many units they can get. The 10 per store seems like a "play it safe" maneuver to me.
