    I would think you need to be there on the dot of 8am (if not before) to be in with a chance.

    I personally think people will be queuing a few hours beforehand as they are going for stupid prices on Ebay.

    I would queue up myself if I didn't have a teenager to drive to school!

    They say only 30 per store...surely most of the staff will get one so I can't see there being many at 8am

    I don't think the staff will be allowed to take them, it sounds like there will be 30 for the customers on a first come first served basis.

    I think for a possible £70 - £80 profit on a £5 spend, people will be there even earlier!

    Contrary to what you've heard, the company behind this are expecting a new batch you'll need to pre-register for, but they're not coming out for some time. I got mine from wearewhatwedo.org and they sell them for £10 which includes a book, then £5 postage on top. I've got one but the metal ring has released some of the material and frayed - but it's not like I can return it, I probably won't get another one! Other than that they are well made.
