    Scunthorpe was on the list and this is a very small store. They were queuing from 3.30 am!!
  • As I said in my earlier posting I went to 2 stores( at 7.05 all the tickets had been given out at the first store & was no. 36 in the queue at the 2nd store but they only had 30 bags) & didn't get one but my sil got one as her local store had 90. Well she rang me later to say she'd got it for me!!!!!!!!! & her friend & hubbie who had also queued up got one each & the friend's hubby has given his to my sil so we're all happy!

    I've got the best sil in the world!!!!! mine's definitely not going on Ebay!

    There's somebody on gumtree who is selling these bags at cost price + postage, bless him
    (he's got 30 of them apparently, so if somebody is still looking to buy one, this might be your best bet)

    Bless, if he is for real , but how did they get 30
    - Rob a sainsburys
    - off the back of a lorry
    - scam - people dying to get the bag, send the money and no bag shows

    That seems the most likely scenario...or am i just cynical

    Maybe a crowd of us from this forum (i.e. more than 30 of us) should e-mail him. If he tells all of us that there's one available then we'll know there's something fishy afoot.

    Have emailed ;)
  • I've emailed too - let's see what happens, I'm worried now, do you think that it's a prank?

    The email has bounced!

    Unfortunately it's highly unlikely he's legit. His email bounced though so I doubt he's a real person at all.
