I found buttons, stickers, and tattoos at Barnes N' Noble at the Breaking Dawn Release Party :D And they were *gasp* free! My B&N had some left over that they were giving away all week :shock: I went back everyday and got more, lol! The tattoos had Robert on some of them and I saw someone stick it to her forehead and draw a bunch of hearts all over her face. Creepy, eh?

There was this giant cardboard sign in Wal-Mart advertising Breaking Dawn, and its basically this blowup of the cover and it says 'new book...august second...blah blah'
Anywayy, so I know someone who actually works at Wal-mart, and they got it for me!!!! I was sooo happy! I'm going to hang it up in my room when I get the chance. :D

That is so funny. I went to B&N this evening and cashier had the Breaking Dawn button on. At the checkout, I was all asking about it and she was like, "We were giving them away at the release.." which I didn't go to because I was still fairly new to the series.. Anyway, as she was checking me out, she looks down at the button and was like, "Eh. I don't even read the books. You can have it." And she took the button off and gave it to me!!! I was like "OMG I LOVE YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!"

Seriously, why do they have everything at Hot Topic. Of all the stores. Why do they have to torture me like that. Where I live I don't have Hot Topic and it's killing me that I can't go buy my merchandise. I don't want to order it online. haha. Why?!

I totally know what you mean. I prefer going out and buying stuff in person, online shopping is my last resort. Anyways, I do love the new poster at HotTopic (the close up of Edward &Bella) Im not a huge fan of the other posters, personally I feel like they're too touched up. *shrug*

Yeah, it's so annoying, there's pretty much no merchandise where I live, I had to buy my wonderful team Jacob shirt off the net (it is now my fav shirt :D ) and the postage and handling was $28 US! Which is over $35 AU! It was so worth it though.

I really want some badges, I'll probably end up making them myself and they'll end up looking awful. But right now, since I'm pretty sure they don't sell Bella bracelets, besides the one on the net which is about $75 I'm getting to work on making my own. *sigh* why must life be so hard?

I only have the Calendar from Borders, I paid the same amount... if not more, just to get it shipped, as the Calendar had cost in total. I know I am going to need a few t-shirts soon for the Unofficial UK Twilight Convention, and with those it is going to be the same. It is a little frustrating that shipping is so expensive...

We have nothing in Denmark; we don't even have the books.
