Our local store doesn't open up until 10:30am. The manager I spoke with said she would be there at 7am, when they open up the mall for the walkers. I guess at that point people would move the line inside to the store. She said they planned on giving out number cards at 7am then telling people as they arrive the situation. She couldn't tell the number of dolls but she did say there would be a lot of disappointed people. I guessed maybe 10 of each doll and she sort of confirmed "something like that."
Some people may only be buying one or a couple, so I guess you could have a chance of getting a random doll if you're a higher number like 20. But I really doubt it.I'm afraid the ebayers will be out in force, this is their job, sadly. They obviously don't have lives with kids or real jobs so they have time to do this stuff.
I keep telling myself "It's just a silly doll!" but I know I'll be really disappointed if I don't get my favorites.
