Hit (3) Walgreens in NH today - all they had was a few 2019 Heritage hangers. Then I got home and my wife gave me two 2020 hangers from a different Walgreens for valentines day! I knew I married her for a reason...

Best yellow was Aaron Judge but I did pull a Yordan Alvarez rainbow and Lux base which will easily pay for the boxes.

For those of y’all getting sealed cases, can you post a pic of sku on bottom? There are some listed on eBay and wantbto confirm they’re actually Walgreens in case I buy and hold ( assuming there’s way to identify). Thanks!

I can confirm on the sealed cases from walgreens, that the SKU on the bottom of the 8 pack hanger is PKG008885..

Saying that, each indiviaul hanger box has a SKU of PKG008883.

Take that as you will. This means that the sealed Blue cardboard holder for the 8 hangers, "isn't" the yellow SKU, but the boxes being sealed inside is indeed the 83 SKU.

I talked to a manager and she said they could only scan the hanger. But she said she'd order a bunch for the next delivery. Fingers crossed.

My Walgreens said they are not available to be ordered in this area yet. What? Why?

I've seen these 3 times in the wild all at different stores. Each time, just two were out. Strange coincidence or ????

Me too. I've only found them twice and each time there were only two available.

Okay, I found two more today at a store I found two at earlier in the week. That's 4 sightings, and each time there were just two out on the rack. It's starting to look like they are holding back the entire display to avoid people buying them out in one shot. If true, this strikes me as odd since I would think they would just want to sell as much as quickly as possible.

Listed some on the bay and they aren’t moving at all...2019 update yellows moved almost immediately. Is the consensus that 2019 is far superior or will it take these guys actually putting up numbers for them to gain steam? Got a sealed hanger 8-pack of the 2020 yellows, still deciding what to do with it. Cracking now seems sub-optimal given that it seems hard to find these.

Went out today and hit 4 more stores. Two of them had, you guessed it, 2 boxes each.

I went 0-7 again in the Walgreen's in my area of Louisiana. None have received any in 2020 that I know of and most have empty hooks, with a couple having 2019 Heritage and one having a Target Series One hanger. Today I talked to a manager at one store who told me that they should be automatically ordered if the quantity on hand shows as zero in the store in their system. So she scanned the barcode and confirmed that it was zero, and also that the last one sold was before Christmas. So obviously something isn't adding up here...

Does anybody know what the print run for the yellows are? Any guesses?

Yesterday I went to a Walgreens near my house and they had 1 hanger. I bought it and hit a yellow Lux. Today I was traveling and passed a Walgreens so I stopped and they had 1 hanger. I bought it and hit another yellow Lux. What are the odds? Sheesh. But made me wonder about the print run ...

I've been in the store when they opened a shipping box from the warehouse - it had 1 lonely hanger in it.

Wait on selling these a bit. The product has just started hitting shelves so not many are going to purchase at a premium if they can pick up or search themselves

Any chance you're moving one of the Lux cards? He was 1 of the 2 I was trying to hit, lol.

My daughter stopped at a Walgreens and the shelf was bare. She asked an employee if they had any in back - he came out with the magic number "2" hangars!

0-8 today at Walgreens with only 5 having a hook for them. Time to check back next week. One manager said they disappear in as little as an hour of being stocked.

I wish Walgreens made these available to purchase on their website like Walmart and Target do.

I had to run an errand far from home. I mapped out a return trip that took me to 6 different Walgreens, one of which I've hit before with partial success. I went 0 for 6 today. Either these are flying off the shelves as soon as they are put out, or the stores I went to are not actively stocking these. Feels like I'm going to have to try to show up on stock day.

Why, so bots can snipe them all? It's no better...just different.
