Harry Potter Comercials

I'm surprised that it has taken this long for the commercial end of 
things to kick in.  Up until now, the only place I could find HP 
items was at the Time Warner Store, and I've heard that they are 
selling off that line and there will be no more stores.

I am 45 and I have two shirts from the HP collection.  Fortunately 
they come in XXXL.  I'm not disturbed about the marketing of these 
products--IMO its much better for kids to want this stuff rather than 
Power Rangers or its kind.  Maybe it will get some kids to READ!

My problem with the commercials is that they don't tell you where to 
buy it, so my kids see this stuff and I don't want to go all over the 
place looking for it.
