Anyone from Birmingham or nearby? - Shopping Request (Please)

Hi,
I need a favour from someone who lives in Birmingham or nearby.
Forever 21 (store) is opening in the UK for the first time in the Bullring. I was going to order clothes from their website a week ago until I realised their store is opening this Friday at 10am and because tax is high.
I am too far to be able to make it there for Friday, but they are giving away a goody bag for the first 900 people who enter.
I really want to get hold of a goody bag and I have asked many people to drive me down but Friday is work day so no one I know can make it.
I emailed Bullring and they said their shopping centre doors open at 6am although the actual store opens for the first time at 10am.
They expect the plae to be really busy, and the store does have good items so I wouldn't be suprised if people started queuing up really early.
If anyone does go, could you get hold of a goody bag for me please? You can PM me for something you may want in return (if I can) and if you do go and feel the goody bag is worthless to send, you can keep it (I'm sure you'd want to get one for yourself too though if you queued up that early). I really wanted to go this Friday to shop as well as there are many things I like on their website, but I'm going to have to wait until next week and they won't have goody bags left then.

great post, i tried this last week to get someone to sit in the queue to get some take that tickets, in the end loads of people wanted to just for the kicks and did the same for that new game this week, hundreds stood just waiting, all I could offer them was a penny chew so looks like you will get thousands doing this for you.:rotfl:0
