I usually prefer going to the store, just because I find it's more convenient than staying up until 3 in the morning (I live on the east coast).
However, the one thing you might want to watch out for is if they're gonna change up the method of how the store releases the dolls. In my store, the raffles only apply to the 12" Designer line. For the 17" dolls, it's first come, first serve, where they hand out numbered cards before the store opens in the morning. Those are the cases where certain areas could see people camping outside of the stores overnight (one of the many reasons I'm grateful the store closest to me that sells these dolls is located in a mall).
For my store, I get why they do it this way. On the days where both 17" and Designer dolls are released, they get rid of the 17" headache early in the morning, then start the raffle for the Designers at noon. Keeps everything nice and organized. I assume this is how my store will also handle November 3rd's Frozen Fever and Designer Frozen releases, though I haven't heard any official confirmation yet. I'll have to ask them when I go to pick up Teal Jasmine and also try for a chance to get Aladdin.
