  • My local Tesco has them for £10 per copy, but if you spend £50 you can buy it for £5. A very inventive guy was outside selling leaflets outside for 50p with details of where people could get it on a better deal - they looked like he'd just typed them up with the info on store addresses, web sites, phone numbers & current prices, but people were snapping them up. My guess is Tesco will change their policy pretty soon, as hardly anyone was bothering to look at the books, never mind buy a copy. :D

    Daughters rolled in around 1am clutching their £4 copies from Asda, Stevenage. Apparently there was quite a long queue but everybody was given a voucher to get the book at the £4 price and it moved really quickly once the clock struck midnight.
    Ironically, there was a carload of chavs driving round the car park accusing the people in the queue of being "sad".
    Can I help?

    Found this in Morrison's - had them in a display, so must be an offer throughout the stores. Only catch is you can only buy one, which is good as it'll stop those trying to make a quick buck on eBay.

    ASDA Eastleigh sold out as I got there. They only had the childrens cover left so didnt get one anyway...

    John Lewis do have the pricematch policy so would have hgad to sell it for a fiver in order to not have lots of hassle from customers trying to get the match in.
    Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:
