I hit Hot Topic last Friday and had to look around for the AIW stuff, it was hidden behind all that New Moon stuff... but they have even more items than before... buttons, journals, various shirts now (2 with the MH on it), keychains and more.. and said they will be getting even more things as the date gets nearer...so check back to see what's new.
I stopped by a well known weird gifty type shop to see if they had anything, but all they had was the animated items. The clerk there seemed to sigh with disappointment so I doubt they will be getting anything there.
Nice items for Christmas... I believe you should get yourself a Christmas prezzie anyway.. that way you always get something you really want.

I stopped by Hot Topics yesterday after work to maybe get the MH hoodie, but yack, they were $48 and not very warm looking. They only had 2 smalls and 1 X-large anyway, but the clerk said they would be getting more in - what they had was left over from Christmas. They had lots more stuff before the holidays so it looked like they sold a lot. That's okay though, it'll give me more time to get used to the $48 part. Birthday's coming up, but so are taxes and Christmas bills. Oh yeah, they had tons of other stuff like buttons and key chains and note pads and throw blankets and big shoulder-type bags. Their display was right in front next to the Twilight stuff and the windows were all decorated with paintings of teapots and cups and AIW stuff. It has been that way for a couple of weeks now. Good advertising.
Debbie P.S. We're going to need an AIW smilie. Is there such a thing?

I usually don't shop at HotTopic, but for AIW, I made an exception! I bought a Mad Hatter shirt, my brother bought me a shirt that says "You're Invited to a Very Important Date" w/a hat on it, and I have the Mad Hatter throw & a button!

Hot Topic’s exclusive expanded version includes three bonus tracks. The album is a companion to the film’s soundtrack, which features the score by composer Danny Elfman.
Hot Topic’s Hollywood locale (3rd level of Hollywood & Highland Center) has been transformed to a mad version of Wonderland even the Hatter would enjoy.

Oh, this is NOT FAIR... I have a perfectly good hat (and other ecoutrements) just going to ruin.
I need ... a nice warm pig for my aching feet and a ticket to get there.
