I just want to know one thing, why do you have to buy the book to get a wrist band? I would love to shake his hand but I shouldn't have to buy the book to do so. Is this just pure greed?

Wait on line to buy the same book that costs less at Amazon with no sales tax, not me. I wont wait on line at post office to buy stamps. Now buy them at grocery store at same time I am buying groceries.

This thing about giving up sleep and waiting on line seems to be a past time for some Villagers. Saw same thing when they opened Best Buy and other stores.

Soon we'll be seeing news reports of people lining up for post-Thanksgiving/Pre-Christmas sales. I've never understood those either, but the people who do it seem to enjoy it.
