it's not fair I tell u! - that will teach me for getting MIL to get it from her work for me (and me being the cheapskate that wanted the extra discount!)

munz · 16/07/2005 21:48

Apparently financial 'experts' have said there is no way they can make a profit at that price!!You have to wander why they bothered!!

Kwiksave price is 4.99 but you have to be under 12 to get it that price

ellceeell · 16/07/2005 22:20

I want to read the seventh book now! Will it be another 2 years?

Nbg · 16/07/2005 22:23

How big is the book?

Is it bigger than the last one?

Also does anyone know if local post offices or Co-op's are selling them? I'm clutching at straws here!

Lucycat · 16/07/2005 22:50

go on then enid spill - but you might have to start a new spoiler thread, or point me in right direction of a website!!!

Catsmother · 17/07/2005 00:37

I got my copy delivered from Amazon 1st thing but have only read about 6 pages ....... but ..... being an impatient little miss, read the ending first ! Obviously don't know how the book gets to that point though so am still looking forward to reading it through properly.

Nbg, my local post office is selling it ... I think lots of places that don't normally stock books, or at least only sell crappy "bargain" stuff, have got in stocks especially as the demand is so high.

ScummyMummy · 17/07/2005 00:43

It is v sad! Both the ending and the fact that we've read it already, poppyh!

The books are everywhere, nbg. My son made me buy it in Smiths (Don't know why as he's years off being able to read it for himself) today and I've been gripped all evening. Definitely a page turner.
