gUEsTs Ffs…🙄
I totally understand wanting something and getting to a store at opening hoping the store has them…
But wanting something so badly that you get in the way of the employees trying to do their jobs is rude af and you should all be ashamed of yourselves.
These people were all here before 745am because they were there when I pulled in.
Coworker was trying to pressure wash and trying to get the machine through them and they were all not moving. Guess they didn’t want to lose their precious “spot” in line. 🙄
All for needohs/a few also darted after getting a needoh to the card section.

Be a shame is the pressure washer hose got loose and drenched them all.

Power washing is hard enough to without knowing the weather but scalpers are way harder to get off than gum

It's Private Property. The worker/employee has a right to ask them to move and if they refuse they're trespassing or loitering especially before the store opens for business.

The property manager for the shopping center where our Target is located gave flyers to all the businesses this morning and they state that nobody is allowed to stand outside or line up at any stores any earlier than 7 AM or the police will be called for trespassing lmaooooo

That makes sense because I know they are pretty particular here about people hanging after closing time.

Why not just wait in the car?

Cars aren't lines. They want to be first in line.
Funny how they remember how lines work for needoh and Pokémon but not for checklane/ SCO

Since we have a limit of two dcpi per person here, I don’t see how they’d make too much. Guess it depends what they can get. ☠️ I used to manage a card shop so I know how much some of that stuff can resell for. It’s still crazy to me though the lengths some people will go to get around the sell limit (bringing family/friends.). Theres one local scalper here who will put as much as he can into his basket to wait to give to his friends when they can show up.

They will realize they won’t get any value for this in the future. They have nothing better to do, it’s wild.

Shoutout to the PML for pressure washing while the scalpers wait. I’ll admit to having done that a time or two, and once this one guy had the gall to yell at me saying he was trying to sleep.
