why would they ever bring the madness back to their stores? The same losers would show up again stalking the vendors... People sleeping overnight... Online has been working better for everyone

They still do it for soccer cards, just less of them. The race to every drop is with us now

They are just figuring out how to make enough money on it to make the “madness” worth it.

Lot more common folk getting cards these days thanks to Target online than when Target had in stores.

If they do in store they should still do it online purchase for in store pickup.

That'll never happen. Impossible to guarantee in stocks on vendor stocked product.

I am perfectly fine with how online is going right now. Nice to be able to count on decent product each week without having to bother with shopping in-store.

yep. i’m fairly certain if anything goes back in store it will continue to be random day vendor stock not announce to the world a day and time to come get a box to flip. I don’t mind getting up early a couple mornings a week for a good shot at the best product. In store requires a lot more time and effort.

Realistically none of us care if it’s in store or online we just want the one that gives us the best chance at product. I get less product now than I did when it was in store, but it takes me a fraction of the time to get it now.

Amen.

I give Target a LOT of credit for making online very attainable. I've had a number of good weeks consecutively, and have enjoyed getting lots of product. Everything I do is manual - it's also a fun "rush" when stuff gets loaded, etc.

The red card exclusive was very clutch from Target.
