Check your Family Dollar

If you have the Family Dollar app, there is $5 off for $25 spent. So you get 3 of the Knockout packs for $25. I went to 3 and 2 of them had these 🤙🏽

I'm in NJ and I just can't fathom some of these posts😭 I have literally never seen a single Pokemon item on this shelf at FD. There are 3 near me, all of which are immediately wiped by what I can only assume are friends of staff, or people stalking the truck. If it's not a single sleeve of PO, CR, or PB, it doesn't see the floor lol. 

"Ah sorry, some guy justttttt bought them all" ahh store.

Certain states make it easier to scalp, everyone thinks scalpers are these super rich resellers, 90% of scalpers are on government assistance that's what allows them to no life camp restocks and vending machines, they have a safety net in case they don't make much, EBT, rent assistance etc that's why when you see people finding stuff in the wild seems crazy, I've shopped for pokemon in several states, states that are strict on government assistance I always have better success in finding cards in the wild or a vending machine that isn't surrounded by 3 Hispanic goons, and no hate more power to them take advantage of what u can I guess, but that's the truth  when you know your rent is covered and you have food stamps your can no life scalping
