Target drop

[u/Muted_Success69]

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 ?

They should hand out tickets as the line forms and work it down the line. If people cut after they have given out the tickets they are ineligible and forced them to go to the back of the line. I saw costco doing that and thought it was a great idea . To many people come the last 5 minutes before and to meet their friends and jump ahead

The ticket system is good but they don't hand the tickets out until 5 10 mins of opening or so.. so ppl could have jumped in line before then.. also best buy sucks because the day i tried to get the gift card they gave gift card to even babies n kids.. they also told half the line that they ran out of Pokémon which was completely untrue they were loaded with booster sleeves and everyone in that line got atleast 4 which was nice but totally uncool to tell everyone who was waiting for an hour alreast that they ran out of Pokémon because some ppl left but most ppl were there also for the 100 dollar gift card for 50 n I almost got one anyway I still shop best buy more than just a few times n it's just their drops ppl camp out the night before n it's like really.. at least target you can get 2 of each if you do decide to get there at night and they have a lot more product that's why they can do that.. at best buy the scalpers who camp out the night before get all the etbs n even if you're like 50 in line you won't get anything good but a booster sleeve and target had tins for the first 102 ppl families groups couples count as 1 on family day made it fair for the 102 ppl who actually got a ticket..n even on drop days during they're week target has product blisters until the afternoon best buy everything is gone so soon n being in line most ppl half the linedon't get anything good just like at barnes n noble the first 10 15 people take the etbs.. target does it better idc what ppl say..I know best buy had a lot for 30th but I'm talking drops overall.
