As part of the celebrations, the first 75 customers through the door at midnight at each of the stores will receive Star Wars giveaways. These will include a limited edition poster and t-shirt, as well as the chance to be among the first to purchase exclusive Star Wars merchandise in dedicated front-of-store feature shops.
