    I got there around 5:15 and was roughly 50th, although I got a snifter so had to be first 45 given their post about those. By 7 there was probably 100 people there. Two checkouts open and a goose rep there. Took about 20 mins to get through.

    Just drove by Binnys grand, and it seems very reasonable. Not sure if they got fucked or not, but it's about 50 people.

    Meijer probably won't put it out until Tuesday/Wednesday. At least that is what they did last year.

    Yup, same here.

    Can't wait to speed through this line, head up to LP and complain I got shut out there.

    Seems like as a result of people getting shut out in places other than LP last year allowed lowkey releases like Jewel to be the best move this year. Next year it will probably revert back and LP will be the best bet.
