    Have been to our local tesco and they're selling it for over £7 so Kwiksave still seems to be the cheapest

    Got mine from Asda this morning for £4.99 using Kwik Save advert from last night's Evening Chronicle (local paper). No mention in ad about under 15's or anything. Woman on checkout did ring for a supervisor to confirm it was alright to sell at that price but it was just before 10.00am and they were very busy and as no supervisor turned up and there was a queue building up she just put it through.

    Since been to Kwik Save over the road at 10:25 to get one for my brother's kids but they're all sold out.

    I bought mine last night from WHS. Tesco's weren't selling at midnight for some reason.

    Kids enjoyed the fire eater and entertainment from Borders (next door but 1 to WHS). Also had two free HP knitted scarfs from WHS.

    Kids happy me wish I had managed to get them for £5 each:rolleyes:

    Great post Rob, thanks. Had still got a few left in Chesterfield at 11am, more people buying lottery tickets than Harry Potter......

    None left in my local Kwik Save just after 9am. They said they had sold out, but there wasn't even an empty display. Got the ad from last nights local paper so will hopefully get it at £4.99 in Asda.

    Just been to ASDA Middlesbrough Southbank and lovely atmosphere there with all staff wearing hats and a couple of staff dressed up. They are price matching the lowest price locally, which I think is £7.97. Read in the newspaper that Amazon have said the lowest HP pre-orders are from Middlesbrough, and in some areas they are delivering to a copy to 1 in every 21 households.

    Asda in Trafford Park, Manchester, have loads of them priced at £7.96. There was a huge pile as you walked in and two more stacks up stairs, one by the George tills and one at the top of the travelators.

    Don't forget your vouchers as that's another 10% off = £7.16ish.
