Super helpful! I haven't checked B&N or CVS but Walgreens is usually wiped out when I visit. HEB here in Austin is also another source I haven't checked. Thank you!
Very informative video!
Thankfully the 2 walmarts near me have been stocking great the past few months. One sells them behind customer service and limits so they ALWAYS have stock. Got mosaic basketball cellos today.

Honestly, limiting the amount for ppl to buy by putting them behind customer service is a great idea. Let's ppl who can't get there right at the restock have a chance. But still have to be quick, congrats on the score, hope you pulled some fire cards
Great put together video, are alot of those photos of cards from you taking them or others, thanks

Actually Walmart has jacked up prices and the value of the products is almost gone. WIth few exceptions a lot of the products sit on shelves for a little while.

I agree, even when you find it you are paying a premium now. I wonder how the card hunting scene will pan out when more mosaic comes out and optic/prizm next year!

Thanks man, means a lot. Keep up the great content on your channel, wish I could be doing that kind of stuff
Popular releases have always been hard to find in retail. 1998 Topps and Upper Deck football retail products were hard to find back in the day. Bowman and Bowman Chrome baseball products in 1997 and 1998 were almost impossible to find at the retail level. Seems most releases in football and basketball and over half of baseball releases are popular now.
The PX inside the military base is always stacked with so many boxes, fat packs, etc. They always get the new releases and all of the prices are retail with no tax. They only limit one per person and they always lock it up in a cage.
My local WM here in Kansas has always been full of cards. I snag the Prizm and optic for Febay.

What’s the best brand to buy for basketball cards??
If my target looked like how it did in the beginning of the video, i would go on ab absolute spree
It'd be pretty cool to see Kroger start selling sports cards
Fred meyer is the best spot for me in my area they restock on sports and pokemon cards almost every week

in canada what stores do you go to all i find them in is walmart so far
I've bought 2021 Topps Update hanger boxes from Walgreens a few times recently and the price doesnt come up in their system. Every time i tell the clerk they are $9.99, yet 3 out of 4 times now they ask the manager who tells them to ring the boxes up for 4-5 dollars. Not a flipper, i break them personally.

Happens to me all the time as well at Walgreens. Most times when it happens though they don't sell them to me which is unfortunate. 4-5$ a rip is too good to pass up! Thanks for sharing
i got 3 prizm draft pick football and 3 chronichles for 5$ a pop!
HEEEEB. It's H. E. B. Lol good stuff though!
I but retail to rip for fun bit Hershey I don’t hit anything. Lol
My cvs gets donruss fat packs
Yesterday I found a panini prizm hanger at Meier and a optic blaster but my mom said no

@@CardBusters It varied but it was usually stuff that was 3 or 4 years old. A friend said that they buy damaged cases and boxes which makes sense since some of the packs look horrible but some were in great shape. Those are the ones I look for there.
Where can I get alerts when stores restock ?

Best bet is to join a discord that gives updates on their monitors. Most are paid but there are a few free ones. I use SVM cook group, and their discord link is in the description. They have both a paid and free discord, join!
H-E-B pronounced H......E......B just say each letter
I still laugh seeing those idiots rushing to the Walmarts to clear the restocks!!!!

The scalpers in my area were following vendors in their cars some even going to the vendors house. They stopped servicing stores in my area because of this

I found a few blaster of illusions football this morning at Walmart. I'm not hardcore into it but if there's something good while I'm already out shopping I'll pick something up. I really want to pull some select basketball one day but I never find that
