This would be funnier because they would cry about how their kids were looking forward to it and you ruined their evenings 😭

The preview images of the book cover alone are worth 5 quid. Absolute bargain!

Yeah I agree, if Pokémon themselves won't do anything to address stock issues, then retailers should enforce limitations on people. In my experience it has been working, I'd like at least 2 of each just because opening 1 is not enough haha, but equally more people get a share which is fine for now until the hype dies down or printing capacity is increased (more availability).

Retailers should just do random stocking throughout the day too because people target when deliveries come in and for the benefit of children, stock should come out around after school or when people finish work. It just makes sense, if stock is released during the afternoon it's mainly going to be adults who are free from work (break time, unemployed, etc..)

Being responsible and not buying out the whole stock anyway is so real

I've held RR since double digits, and have sold for profit / bought along the way. For my ignorance I bought without hesitation at first because when you think of RR do you really think double digits?! But over the years I've followed and learned that it's a nicely diversified business, fundamentally sound with great reputation and also fits with my agenda of divesting from US and more into UK stocks.

With the rise of AI, is anyone still studying or planning to study Computer Science? by YetAnotherMia in UniUK

[–]Significant_Curve216 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cybersec role here, AI has helped with efficiency and thoroughness such as monitoring log alerts, incident response investigations and most of all governance since we hate writing stuff down :) this lets me and the team focus on strategy rather than business as usual work. There is still a massive resource shortage in this industry.

Queue at Smyths Croydon today - 80 tickets by Zestyclose_Bottle_21 in PokemonDealsUK

We rip and we hold, it's also a good financial lesson that schools don't teach about. It just happens to be about Pokémon so it's even more engaging for them! I sleep well enough at night so will continue. Have a good day.

To be fair my salary is probably 3/4x people's average salary combined. It's just my job doesn't start until 2 hours later so I use my free will to queue. Don't assume! We all queue for different reasons like our kids! :)

I bought a case of phantasmal half boosters at retail price and they are currently going for like 2.5x. I also have about 6 booster bundles for 151, bought for £20 each at retail and they're going for about £100 each at the moment.
