Since Target is probably my closest store (besides Fred Meyer which I only thought of too late), I headed there about 7:40. Was there by 7:45, and found a nice gentleman to past the time with. He told me about Borders doing SUCH a great job the night before, despite a line that went between nearly every aisle of the store, out the door, and around most of the mall!
There were only about 15 people outside of the Target by the time the doors opened, and appearantly only a few of us looking for copies of the book. I found the Deluxe version was $44.99, instead of the $39.00 it was listed for online... but I didn't care. Having lost patience as yesterday drew to a close, I cancelled my DeepDiscount order and am glad to have the book in my clutches.
I give nothing away, but it is EXCELLENT just like 6 I finished again last tuesday. J.K. Rowling... I salute you. You really make us feel like we are there, and the books are fabulous. What a writer...
