Not near the amount as you guys but I’ve opened 4 blasters, 7 hangers, and probably 18 cellos and have pulled 0 genesis, 1 scripts auto, and only 1 #/16 aqua colored Prizm of taurean prince, no other numbered cards at all

The odds didn't change, smalltown just hit a Luka genesis from his lonely hanger he found today, so the poor sapp that cleaned out the walmart and forgot the 1 hanger has 19 hangers that won't have one. It happens.

Store that got stocked last week got nothing this week.

But I got 50 hangers and 6 megas yesterday at another store but that was being stocked but not sure what that store got the previous week as its way out in the country.

Update to this. Opened 8 more mega boxes today, because I can't be trusted with anything sealed... Only Ja in all 8 boxes was 1 debut. Best reactive blue was DeAndre Hunter.
BUT...
Finally pulled 2 Genesis... Sekou rookie and Zion Debut. Add in a true Silver Zion 209... Was very light on anything else good but I will take it gladly.

Well that’s quite the shift in luck. Congrats!

Thank you restock!! Just picked up another 5 megas on the secondary market. Have 12 megas in route now (@ $117.50 per).

Can't believe we can pick up megas at a lower price than blasters, crazy times.

That sucks. I gave the 4th guy a mega and a hanger from my 3 and 3 haul.

So I came away with 2 and 2.

Here's what I did... I didn't say a thing to him.. I then saw he left the champions path etbs. There were 4. I grabbed 3. Then as I was checking out another dude came in.. Asked if he liked pokemon and of course he did. I alerted him to the fact that there was one etb hidden in the back of the shelf. KARMA my friends... Good luck hunting!

Funny story...

I stopped by Walmart to pick up a cubby system for work. On my way out, I noticed that the cards were being stocked. I’m thinking I have a shot at getting some Mosaic so I needed to go load the cubby system into my car.

As begin to load it, even with my back seats down, the cubby system won’t fit! I can’t close the trunk or get it to slide in any further.

I start taking it out of the box and sliding pieces into random spots of the car so I can actually transport it back to work. Had to do this whether there were cards or not, but all I could think is if I miss out on a reload because of this stupid shelf, I’m going to be ticked. Haha

After wrestling for a few minutes, I walk in and see she had just placed the hangers on the shelf. I politely waited until she was finished and then asked if she happened to have any other basketball cards.

She was super nice and said I could look through her boxes. She helped find four megas and I thanked her for helping me.

All in all, I got 4 megas and 9 hangers. After I checked out, I saw another guy talking to her.

If that shelf had taken me 4-5 minutes longer, I would have missed all of it! Just thankful I got some this time around since I missed the initial stock and the previous reload.

My local WM has the dreaded 1 pack/box per customer signs up today. Was fun while it lasted... Not sure if self-checkout will enforce this or not?? Was not about to try it will Donruss FB and Topps Gallery.

Haha yeah that’s pretty ridiculous. When I was at a Walmart three weeks ago and pulled like 4 blasters of mosaic football, 20 of the mosaic football hanger boxes, took 40 of the cello packs (half were for two other guys I know) and left 20 others, some older guy came in looking for stuff. I at least had the decency to ask if he wanted a couple, he just wanted one of each of those so I handed him a blaster and a hanger box or two. Then he grabbed one of the mega bowman chromes.

We talked for a couple minutes and he said that the others that usually go in there wouldn’t even blink at offering him anything if they were first to grab a full load out. I was just visiting the parents where they live and thought I’d check it out to see if they had stocked that morning.

Today was one of the only times since February I saw a fresh restock at a store with no one waiting. 0 Mosaic basketball. 0 Mosaic football. 0 Pokemon ETB. But don't worry there was probably $800 total worth of all SKU's of Topps Gallery. I'm the king of false hope. That today is basically my whole life in a nutshell. Last 3 times I saw a rep at a Walmart putting cards out my total haul after splitting is 1 Mosaic football mega box, 2 more Topps Green sets to go with the other 28 I shouldn't have bought, and 9 Donruss Holiday blasters.

Yeah it was full of Topps Gallery, Holiday Donruss, a few Absolute blasters.
But I did get 5 Pokemon ETB.

Won't be much good for a while except for Prizm football.

At least my wallet will take a break.
Think I spent like $4k on retail this week.

Yeah most really suck for ya. I haven't spent $4k at every Walmart combined since the end of February. So glad I have permanent brain damage and can't stop going out. Last 2 Thursdays I wasted close to 20 hours to get 9 Donruss holiday blasters.
