My store has a similar policy. Hold slot gets to pick out 5 and non-slot members get to pick out 3.
I don't know if it's changed recently but the stores don't actually pay for them. At least not like normal. They might pay like $.10 an issue and then they get tons of traffic and sell far more than any other day of the year. I think it works out well for them unless they can't handle the volume. Last year was the first year I ever saw where they didn't let you have one of each if you wanted. I think it was limited to 5 books but only allowing 1 is just nuts. They will have tons sitting around and since they can't sell them what are they going to do?

There were only three what I wanted to grab anyway. The main disappointment was that they had no way of taking people's money that didn't involve waiting in line for an hour. I went to buy some stuff and help support local business.
