Where are you picking up your copy? (HP)

I thought it would be fun for people to post where they're going to pick up their copies of Harry Potter, so people could meet up at the parties if they preordered at the same places. So where are you getting your book at?

Talon and I are going to the Borders at South Coast Plaza! Their party starts at 9:30.

Barnes and Noble, Ventura - I think their proceedings start about the same time.

I'm the mousy dullard who is going to slink down to the Wally World 10 minutes away and stake out a place in line (usually first) and then get out and get reading ASAP!!!!

My husband has agreed to drive me shortly before midnight to the bookstore at the mall. I am taking a nap this afternoon, and not coming up for air, until I am finished.

Re: Where are you picking up your copy? (HP)

I have a copy reserved at Barnes & Noble -- I thought about the party tonight, but I think I can wait until morning (I think I can, I might die from the added hours of waiting). Anyone ever been in the reserved line the next day? Is it pretty easy, or should I save myself the headache and try to get it at Costco??

I'll be right behind you. I can't do the midnight thing because of my kids, and the line at Borders the following morning for the last book was similar to Nemo at DL.

Just gimme the dang book and get OUT of my way!

Re: Where are you picking up your copy? (HP)

I'll be working at Barnes and Noble near Pittsburgh. We get our copies after everyone leaves and the doors are locked. Should be a fantastic party!

Have a great time everyone no matter where you get your book! And happy reading! Remember to come up for air and maybe some food and water every now and then.

We'll probably see you later, Morrigoon. MTNGIRL, Grumpy4, pixiechick, and I don't know who all else will be at Borders, too.
