Sadly I don't know if any English retailers are doing this.
(actually I just checked and Gamestation do it but it quite clearly says that the code will be emailed on release.

I know it's petty but I stood next to Chet dressed as Bill, if I don't get a hat I'm going to hold a grudge like forever.

Are Gamestop not in England? I'd find it rather suprising if they were here (Ireland) and not in the UK.

I don't see why this is much worse than the former way of handing out hats (random draw). Maybe give it to everyone who buys L4D2.
