Yeah sure, I'd like that, but I'm not sure if I'm going or not, I'm not risking my elbow on public transport so depends if I can get a lift from someone going that way to nearby, have a friend who works there most wkends so chances are good.

The woman said your mum got one of the first cm pins off the lanyard unless I heard her wrongly but I swear she said lindsay mum :P

She sure did. ;) And you know how me and my mum are about pins. Mum can get her boyfriend to take her to other stores, but I only have the Manchester store. And I'm working all those days, so it's not like I'd have much of a chance anyway as lunches tend to fall at around 1pm-2pm.

We'll just see how it goes though.

Didn't know you were wanting them for trading. I just assumed you wanted them for keeps, since you're so eager to go to each store and get as many as you can. Me and mum are wanting them for keeps.

I want my first set for keeps then maybe another set depending on how hard they are to come by for trades.  I'm sure if I make it to a PTN in Fl I'll get some nicceee trades for them!

2 Little Tips I found for buying Pins when you want them>>

1. You could move to the North of England, since living in the North of England and I mean north, not Manchester.  It works in my favour for once with the North South divide, less people to buy up here, so it's quite easy to obtain Pins in general, bear in mind not everyone has cottoned onto Pin Trading up here yet..  :mrgreen: It's quite funny when I hear Cast Members telling people about it as a brand new idea..  :lol:

2. For buying Pins in general, make sure you get pally with a Cast Member who works in your local Disney Store, you'll be well in. You'll never get the answer.."Oh I'm sorry they've all gone". Instead it's.. "I'll just get it", since it's hidden away waiting for you behind the counter..  :mrgreen:

Pause for thought..  :wink:  :)
