When Order of the Phoenix was launched, I picked one up in Asda for £6.97 on launch day. They had stacks of them. Later that day in Tescos, they too were doing the same deal, and had loads.

I personally would avoid pre-ordering and just purchase one from any of the supermarkets on launch day. They will all be trying to out-do each other.

i was just going to say the same!

i was getting excited when i saw this thread, thinking it was out soon.

Peeps,

The new Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince is being sold from tomorrow on ASDAs website for £8.96 for pre-orders (not out until 16 Jul 05). Not a bad price.

Hope this is of Use

It's available now, I ordered it earlier today. Including postage it's still about £1 cheaper than Amazon and it gets delivered on the release date.

U sure it will turn up on the 16th! I would rather pay an extra £ from amazon and have it definetly turn up on the day!

You can get this as a pre-order for £9.99 and I think they still have free delivery on books for this week, so presumably it won't be £11.70 with postage like Asda...

if you pre-order the book
will you get a first edition

I pre-ordered mine during the Tesco.com free delivery week (plus there was a 50p off coupon that I found in store) and have just received an email today informing me that they will only be charging me £8.96 for the book (no delivery charge)

nice one!

I saw this, but as I need 2 it isn't cheaper for me....as Amazon give free P&P over £19.
