    i saw one go on ebay yesterday for £220 it had a free book with it cant remember which one was too busy picking my jaw up from the floor.
    asked in my sainsbury's today about them and was told they weren't having a ticket system.

    I saw that one also, think it was the change the world for a fiver book. But still , £220 was shocking. I'm pretty sure she had more than one 1 bag as well:eek: Some people just go completely mad when it comes to bidding on ebay
  • i saw the bag that went for £220,the highest bidder was a brand new ebay member with 0 feedback, i have bought and sold on ebay for over 6 years and in my experience i have found that many members with 0 feedback dont always pay up, so i would be very suprised if this one does, especially a they could have bought one on a BIN for £75
    dont wait for your boat to come in, get in a dingy and row out to it!!!

    Oh I don't know what to do, I really want one of these bags but am quite shocked that they are being limited causing this mad scramble. I am also fighting with my conscious as these are made in China and the carbon footprint getting them here is immense which sort of negates what they are about. Still won't be surprise if I am queuing Wednesday morning
    No Matter what you do there will be critics.

    "Please note that most stores selling the bag will only have 30 bags."
    ......... what are the chances of the general public bagging one? Can see this being a "staff only" promotion :confused:
    Don't worry. These bags are being treated like the Crown Jewels and NO staff are allowed to reserve ANY. They can queue out of uniform on the day in question if they are not starting work.

    Do you really think there will be ques outside the stores for these bags???

    What advertising has there been? I doubt the average joe would even know about them!

    The queues will be only with MSE posters! Anyway Sainsburys opens before 8am, so where are you going to queue?
