Opened one and got yordan which was nice
That and the 5 card pack pretty much cover the box
Really anyone but Aquino is a solid pull

I went to Target in a suburb of the Twin Cities yesterday. Found two blasters of Chronicles, a bunch of Pete Rose blasters, a ton of A&G and Donruss Football. I only picked up the two Chronicle blasters.

My local Target typically gets stocked on Wednesday afternoon. I was running errands at lunch time today and figured I would stop in on the off chance he changed up his schedule and got there earlier. When I walked in, I saw 8 guys standing in the card aisle and assumed the Excel Rep was on his way and he showed up 10 minutes later. I've been there plenty of times when the rep was stalking and had never seen more than one other person. I was presently surprised when the rep showed up. Everybody waiting instantly got in a line in order of when they got there and the rep evenly distributed amongst everybody there. I had never been in that situation before and was waiting for the worst, but everybody was talking and joking around with one another just waiting their turn.

The new norm but at least it sounded cordial

I had a cart loaded up today with some product to put out including mvp, ginter, chronicles, basketball repacks, and mosaic blasters and megas. I had to walk away from it for a moment to assist a guest and when I came back over because a lady was going through it. I told her that it wasn't available for sale yet. She was disappointed but said ok. So I took it and put it behind the cafe and finished helping the guest. When I came back an employee told me that as soon as I walked away she went behind the cafe, took what she wanted out of it and left. Oddly enough, she didn't take any of the mega boxes or basketball.

The funny thing was most of the guys were taking just as much Pokémon cards as sports cards.

Sounds like she was focused on the Mosaic FB blasters...

Unfortunately they need to put it on shelf and take pics at our target. So we wait about 45 min in line to get our serving lol

If they just took the good stuff and we each took an equal amount that would be great

People like this deserve to have bad things happen to them.

My assumption is that has already occurred.

I'm surprised the customer was able to rummage around behind the counter without the other employees stopping her. That's just outlandish behavior on the customer's part. So she did all that and left behind the megas and basketball anyway smh

I was at a Target today while the Excel rep was stocking. Was all Ginter and Stadium Club. Asked her if there was anything else and she said someone had gone thru her Stock boxes before she arrived.

That’s the reps from Excell. If a Target employee puts stock out they don’t need to take photos.

Those are already down to like $60 shipped on eBay. They'll be getting left on the shelf by next week. I think the very little amount of info and the basically surprise to some release caused people to not give the checklist a look and see that it's some serious garbage.

I walk into my target at 1030 this morning

Had to be 20 people in The whole store .. it was empty

I walk back to the cards and the freaking excel rep is stocking the cards

I have not seen anything in my target for months

I’m like where is the line for people waiting for cards

She says I’m new today the old rep quit.

She’s like I will never tell them when I’m coming like the old rep did

I’m like do you have any mosaic .. she said I have 25 hangers

So 30 minutes later I’m opening with son

Through first 10 we pulled Herbert silver Rc. Orange mahomes and Jerry jeudy auto
