Short answer is no, unless they are going to only be sold online only and not in stores(VZW Stores) and I really doubt that is happening. Sorry. VZW stores don't receive shipments on Sundays either so no chance.
apparently the tbolt is on the bestbuy ad. actually printed out paper. 299 tho.
Thursday only, look it up

My best buy told me (as of 11:30am NY time) that they have no release date at all.
Which is better than the other best buys I called last week telling me they had them and would sell on the 24th..
BMX tweeted that this week was a go. I am betting Thursday.
Yesterday I asked someone working at a kiosk in Costco about the TB, he said he had no idea about a release date but did say that Best Buy had 60 days of exclusivity. Waiting an extra 2 months to pick this phone up from a reseller, for what it's actually worth, makes this a definite pass for me.
Best Buy has had them in stock for a week or so.

It was in last week's ad at 249. The printed ad.
Also, some BB locations have had them in stock already for a week or so. Just could not sell yet.

Amazon and Wirefly and others should have it day 1. Its only retail store exclusive, not completely exclusive.
This may be why Verizon stores also have not received the phones yet. Because they are retail exclusive to Best Buy, the way the Nexus S is on T-Mobile, Best Buy only in stores, or online.
Told u
Also retail exclusive doesn't apply to verizon, they sell the phone no matter what. BB just gets to say they are the other store you can get it from

I don't think VZW stores would get as many accessories and promotional material as they did for the device and not sell it.

Thread for reporting local availability in a store. Only post here if you have found it available somewhere: best not clutter it with multiple posts of "I've checked store A, B and C and they don't have it yet".
Summary
Confirmed Reports
Staples (US confirmed) are taking pre-orders from 2012-11-17, for delivery at the end of December(!): http://www.staples.com/Nexus-10-32GB-Tablet-from-Google-Pre-Sale/product_117496
Unconfirmed Reports
None currently
Word of advise, make sure you are clear what you are looking for. No employees at Walmart knew what the 10 was. They all thought I meant the 7.

This thread is justified. The other main thread regarding this is mostly for those who bought theirs from google play. I for one have called all local walmarts and office depots and no one at any store has any idea at all.
Yeah I agree. I'm definitely looking to pick one up in-store after hearing about all of Google's online shop shenanigans.

Dont believe anything Currys/PC World is telling anyone. I suspect they are saying those things in the hope people will wait and buy from them.
Heres an idea. Ring the Customer Sales line 5 times, you will get 5 different answers.
They havent got a clue.
When I went in to my Local Curry's, the Manager told me he didnt even know when the Nexus 7 was coming in untill his stock arrived by courier.
Gamestop has it listed in their system but no release yet as of a few days ago when I inquired in-store while pre-ordering a Neo-Geo X Gold bundle & an additional arcade stick (woohoo!!!). FWIW, I inquired at a local wally world & they had no clue what I was talking about as they thought I was referring to the N7 also although I did see the shelf sticker listing for it. He scanned the barcode & it wasn't in-stock yet.
There was a spare place on the display rack at local Walmart here in Salt Lake City. Label on shelf had Samsung GT-whatever, which after checking the internet, corresponded to the N10. $499. Asked but no one had a clue. Maybe it'll be in stock by the weekend?

Looks like it might be longer than we thought for retail N10 availability.
The retailer will be selling the 32GB Nexus 10 for $499. The device will be available for pre-sale at all Staples stores, and on the company's website. It is expected to ship between Dec. 23 and 30, and will take 2-3 business days for delivery, Staples said.

Does anyone know if AT&T plans to have floor models of the HTC One available before April 19th? I'm basically ready to preorder at this point, but I'm not entirely comfortable dropping $200 or $300 without at least handling the device.
The store I stopped at today wasn't expecting any floor models, but I'm also not sure really sure how reliable the salesman I talked to was.

Yeah, now that the initial high has passed, I'm kinda grumpy that I have to wait another 10 days to play with it again.
Coming from a One X, the burst mode speed (one of my favorite features) is ridiculous. It took like 15 pictures in roughly 2 seconds.

Good to see another One XL migrant
I'll always have a special place in my heart for my One X, especially running CM10.1. It'll be a great backup phone to mess around with going forward...but man, the One was something else. I'm probably biased right now, of course, and reality will likely temper my feelings over time. Still, I'm not the kind of person to upgrade phones every year - I went from an iPhone 3G, to an iPhone 4, to a One X...but something (or everything) about the One made me change my mind.
I'm hoping the One will last me a long, long time though.

No one had a G2 out on display for my friend to play with. I'm trying to convert him from iPhone but every store (2Best Buys, an At&t store, and a RadioShack) did not have a model out on display. It looks as if even the Moto X had more advertising behind it. Surprised me quite a bit that the lack of sales is because of product placement.

About two weeks later went into a non-corporate store and they had nothing out and knew nothing about the phone.

I went in to Verizon (corporate store) on launch day and asked about it. No one knew what it was and said they didn't have it in stock. The associate then went on to recommend me NOT to buy an LG device and how he hated them. But if I were interested in an iPhone or Samsung, then he'd help me. Couldn't believe it! So I left and bought it at another nearby corporate store.

My ATT Corporate store had some on dispay i when I got mine. The Rep also seemed to know a lot about the device as well. She was talking about how cool it is and also talking about some of the features.
They is marketing the G2 really well imo, here in Wisconsin. lot's of commercials
In Sweden there are huge banners and even some TV-commercials (Phone commercials on TV are very rare here)
I was lucky enough to snag one as the stores were running out fast.

They actually do advertise it and the att store here loves the g2 and Verizon reps here waiting for them to finally arrive. I know they are far behind is a non corporate Verizon store and ur in Wisconsin redneck area so most likely the non corporate store Verizon will get it late but they have huge posters out for it thought.

The AT&T store in Crossgates Mall in Albany, NY had it on display when it first was released and took it off display for for some reason. I think they are still selling it tho. Best Buy also has them in stock but not on display. Just bought one yesterday at BB. Exchanged the Blue HTC One for it. I LOVE this phone. The display is amazing. I've had all the major high end phones this past year and this one is BY FAR the best. Hopefully the development will pick up as more people discover the G2.
I also played with the Note 3 in the AT&T store and the same lag from the S4 is present in the Note 3. It's the God's honest truth. I was debating whether to buy the Note 3 today or the LG G2 yesterday but after seeing that my decision was easy.
In Cincinnati, OH USA...
Best Buy is where I purchased mine...don't remember seeing one on display but during the purchase they said hey, we have a $50.00 coupon...so got it for $149.00. Made me happy. They had zero cases.
Local AT&T store had a working one on display but the sales rep clearly wasn't pushing it. He said you seem to know what you are looking for but asked if I considered the S4...I pulled it out and said that's what I'm getting rid of. Checked 5 AT&T stores for cases and they all had only one...bodyguard (nice case by the way)
Stopped by a large AT&T store in Vermont while traveling looking for a case and the LG hadn't arrived yet for sale!??!
Funny, one AT&T rep commented (in a whisper) that he considers the LG G2 the best android phone they've carried to date.
Hey guys,
How many of you ordered from T-Mobile and your S5 is on backorder? I ordered a Black one last night (after returning my M8) and it said in stock when I ordered, it finished processing and then I got an email this morning stating it was back ordered
Hopefully it ships soon, I'm kinda pissed cause I paid for the fast shipping too. Now I'm stuck with my old Nexus 4 (dat battery life ) until it comes in. Anyone else in a similar situation?

Ha no probs.
I traded it back in for the S5 because I really didn't like the way the device felt. It was tall and it was narrow which made it awkward to hold IMO, and this is coming from me having a Note 3, which I was fine with. Sense, although incredibly fast and beautiful, was somewhat boring to me and left me asking for more. I also didn't particularly like the camera and wanted more that the S5 provides.

Well, all T-Mobile stores must have gotten shipments yesterday because after work my local store had a bunch of blacks in so I called in to T-Mobile to cancel. They said they did.
Get home, open up my newly purchased S5 activate it, set up me email and get a notification that my T-Mobile order that was supposed to be cancelled shipped
Oh well, at least I got one!
I just walked into the store on release day, talked to my buddy that I always talk to and walked out with a shiny new white S5. I've bought the new Galaxy on release day since the 3, 4 and now 5 all in white. I'm officially a Samsung fanboy.

Definitely not back ordered, as I walked into my local T-Mobile store and purchased a charcoal black S5 with new service.
They seem to have over anticipated the demand for white and under anticipated the demand for black. I had to call around for about 6 stores to find one in black and they had only received a couple in the order, so I zipped down and grabbed it. Then I had a hard time finding a black otterbox case, everyone had white but no black, but I found one at an AT&T store lol
