    Rang the St Annes store and they had sold out totally. They had a queue when they opened this morning, I was told. However the assistant kindly told me on the phone that the Lytham branch had still got 3 or 4 left.

    I rang them and a lovely young man said they had about 3 left but he'd keep one for me till I got there. When I arrived 30 mins later the display was empty, and a guy was walking towards the checkout carrying one. My heart sank - but I asked at the counter and the assistant (looking sceptical) asked someone at the pharmacy and then came back with one for me! :j

    Thanks Boots!

    Got mine at lunchtime in Lowestoft store, they had about 50 laid out like a pyramid by the door, and the same upstairs, they still have loads left upstairs, but the pile by the door is nerly gone. If anyone is really desperate, will pick some up for you. Got mine all sorted. Think it is the cities that are fairing worse than the towns stockwise
    I'm tempted to take you up on your offer

  • It would be a good idea if someone could have started a thread to keep people updated on which stores have sold out.

    Really? It's a great bargain but not worth trying to make a profit on it. Postage alone, will cost a bloody fortune for the buyer. Some people are so greedy.
    I bought one online in the early hours as a gift and one for myself instore first thing this morning, but that's it for me.

    Now that I have it, I'm like "meh". Typical! :D
