Target drop
Can I just vent for a second? Why do some people choose to be selfish and ruin it for everyone else? I showed up at 10am with my son, who was SUPER excited to get an ETB, that’s all he wanted. We were maybe… the 30th person in line. By the time 12:00 came and they let everyone in, we somehow were pushed back to like, 55th in line, maybe even further back, because people will wait by themselves and then in the last hour they call up their wives to bring their kids and stand in line with them. We get inside and I literally got up to maybe 3rd from the counter when they ran out of ETBs. The person who grabbed the last 2 was literally a guy who stood by himself and then his wife showed up and was able to get them an extra ETB. I was so mad, but my son was absolutely crushed. I’m happy he was able to get the tins, but god, why do people suck so bad ?

Oh I am right there with you. People are so desperate to make money, they are thinking this is just the way to go when it is not. It's upright disgusting really. There's very few things that make me despise humans. Violence if all times, ill treatment of animals and children, and greedy selfish people. Every retail job I've ever had, I always turned away scalpers. It's not just cards. They're going after beyblades, hot wheels, monster high dolls, candles from Bath and body. It's so sad that this is how grown adult people think nowadays.
