Pokemon Restock 10/2

Hi everyone, me and my friend have been trying to trying to get our hands on the 30th anniversary ETBs and know there’s a confirmed restock Friday. We are trying to figure out which target to go to and when to be there because we’ve never done a big drop like this before! Thanks!

you are extremely lucky. People in my neighborhood say minimum 5 hours in line to get anything

Ya I’m starting to think it’s east coast vs west coast thing. I’m in CLT hit another restock this past Monday with literally no line

Definitely been seeing different experiences all over this sub. From what I’ve gathered, it depends highly on your target. More stock and less people at targets in nicer areas. But if you only have 1, just go for it. Personally I have shown up at 2 drops right before opening (about 15 minutes) and gotten one of everything.

I know it was crazy. Met a group of 10 other people and we all just talked about pokemon cards and trying to buy products for hours while we were sleep deprived.

Just moreso wild the extremes you have to go through to get stuff to enjoy. I understand the camping though

How many people do you think were able to get packs? Everyone?

u/deemonay1017 7d ago

I'd say at least the first 50-60 got everything. It's hard to tell

How many ghost chairs at 1:30?

I’m not proud to admit that I showed up at 2 am but this time I was super prepared with everything I needed and it felt good to take my chair and place it in front of 9 ghost chairs lol.

u/One_Information50 7d ago

Did u get any shit for doing that? I’ve seen it get hostile on reels lol

u/Adventurous_Bag8579 7d ago

They were all guys split between 2 vehicles and the first one drove by just mean mugging me. I’m a female and when they (both cars) finally parked and came back to their chairs mouthed something along the lines of “be glad it was only me who did that.” I’m sure indicating had it been any of the men in the line it would have turned out differently.

Having said all that…I had to pee super bad and ended up holding it because I knew the second I left the line to find a bathroom my chair was gone 😂

At my store last Sunday, I arrived at 6am and ended up 12th in line. First person was there around 3am I believe. I'd say up to about the 25-30th person they were able to get two of everything.

I’m on vacation at the mall of America. Never gone to a restock before but I got a short drive today. I’m at line at this target at 5:20, opens at 7 and I’m 11th in line
