Wee Wiimotes at Burger King

  The promotional sign in front of Burger King reads, “HEY KIDS WE HAVE WII TOYS!”  I’m not hungry, but I go inside anyway and ask the kid at the register if I can buy the toy without buying the kiddie meal.  Ninety nine cents he tells me.  At first he hands me the Mario Kart Yoshi toy which comes with a fake little steering wheel instead of a fake little wiimote.  I ask for a different toy, and after digging through a box for a moment, he comes up with the Flip and Stick Donkey Kong you see in the picture.  Of course the toy is total crap, but there is something appealing about the tiny thumb-sized wiimote.  I can pretend it’s a tennis racket and swing it around and make believe I’m playing a video game that simulates the real game of tennis!  

If that’s not enough incentive for you to rush to your nearest Burger King, there is actually one other good reason for you to buy a Wii toy.  It comes with a five dollar coupon code you can use at www.eastore.com towards the Wii games “Boom Blox” or “Boogie Super Star”.  The code is: EABK47381.  There’s a different five dollar coupon code you can use towards the Wii game “Littlest Pet Shop”  That code is: HASBRO.  You know your kid sister will love it.
