Because they only have a small number of them, and they know that once they sell out of those, people who waited in line and got up at the crack of dawn to get there will buy something else! These sales are just a ruse to get people into the stores...which is why they're all opening up even earlier this year. The frenzy they create is the ONLY way they're going to get people into the stores this year.
