    Just been, arrived at 7am to find about 10 women furious!! I think the people who'd been there very early had already been given a ticket for the bag. Although I couldn't see them anywhere? I just came away, but the other women were going mad :confused:

    Got to my Sainsburys at 7am to see about ten people in a queue. Manager says 'sorry all gone'. I asked how and he said they had all gone at 5.30am and that the people in the "queue" are in the gym, getting breakfast etc.

    Either the staff are getting their own bags or this is simply unfair. How can you queue in the gym? Or be one of the first thirty through the door if you are not there. If I'd known I would have queued last night after work, got my ticket and gone home to bed........

    Gave the one off the website to my mum for her birthday, so sorry sis couldn't get one for you.

    Sent hubby to have a look when he walked the dog as store opened at 7. Bags not arrived yet and manager offerring to take details of 15 or so in the queue and ring them when they arrive, apparently some women not very happy and manager getting a lot of stick. Hubby said he was very scared.:rotfl::rotfl:

    Hubby left details so we will wait and see, funny they have not arrived as the store is 5 minutes from one of the huge depots that the bags were sent from :confused:

    I just called in to bolton and they gave the vouchers out before I got there. they really should male people queue oif they want something not give vouchers out.

    I thought I would try the leigh store. they opened the shutters as I got there I was counting the queue and was 28 within 5 minutes I had a voucher marked number 28. I just need to wait till the store opens. not long left.
