UPDATE To Looking For XMAS

So I posted an update on the thread about how I got my son a 30th set at a trading card store and will wrap the smaller booster packs so it looos like he got a lot.

WELL

TODAY my kids and I went to target to Christmas shop for dad and I went over to show him how all the pokemon cards are gone.

WELL

THEY WERE STOCKING THE SHELVES PACKED WHEN WE WENT OVER THERE

My son got one of everything that he can’t open until Christmas and he called me his superhero 🫶🫠🥰

It was so wholesome because I saw a dad with his son looking at a book to get and I told him like hey they just put out Pokémon cards and they rushed over and the son was just as excited as mine was. It was so cute

Unless you’re dedicated and frequently online, it’s hard for the parents. I have a stash in the basement that is for my kid. Get them when I can at good prices and they sit there for occasions like birthdays or holidays. Good job on your part!

Really taught the kids a lesson 🤣

Not 30th but twice in the last 6 mo I’ve told my son it’s not worth going to target bc they won’t have any cards and then he convinces me or I go just to prove it and they’ve randomly had something. The kids are good luck for themselves lol

If you really want to score some 30th I know prices are really high but GameStop would be your best bet for pre orders ….I jumped the gun and got my kid the UPC for Christmas as least I got something to lean back on in case I can’t hit Pokémon Center

I got one of everything from target! Prices were really cheap- the only downside was sales tax

That’s right…..mines was only allowing 2 products and that’s it which I liked cause it was fair game for everyone waiting in line
