Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows went on sale at 12:01 am on Saturday Morning in stores all across the country. Clarksville Online editor David W.

Rowling’s final book about the boy wizard, went on sale at 12:01 A.M. on Saturday, July 21, 2007. The local Books-A-Million store was one of several “Potter” parties held throughout Clarksville.
