    It says one gnome per transaction. Does that mean if there are 2 or 4 of you all togehter only one gnome accepted and only one gets in free?

    So if you seperated up, differnt queues/gates you could all be free?

    Has anyone actually tried this over the bank holiday?

    Would a printed out, then rolled up or folded picture be good enough? Much easier to cart around with you :-)
    No this wouldn't work, if you read the T&C it has to be a plaster gnome, they're not accepting plastic ones.

    You could if they hadn't reached their limits: they say there's a strict limit of how many gnomes can be accepted each day so as someone else has already said, you need to take your credit card, and I'd say also take any BOGOF offers you've accumulated, and mobile phones so that if the gnome's not accepted you can regroup and try again! Plus don't try to get children in alone, I'm sure there's a minimum age limit!
