I got 1 gravity feed. 36 packs, 2 purple pulsars and 1 auto

Thought I cleaned out a restock but had a cart and checkout was being used—went back with the Mrs and saw blasters and one cello I missed -doh-probably all Silver Doncic packs

For those wondering about retail outlets other than Target and Walmart....

Checked out Shopko tonight and no sign of ever having Prizm. Last year they did but only stocked it once and was only a handful of Cellos and Blasters

Also went to Meijer tonight and they just got restocked. About 20 cellos, 3 megas, and 5 blasters. The prices are about a dollar more than Wal-Mart or Target, but they have Santa Bucks going on now, so can get a good deal on it.

One thing to note with the mega boxes at Meijer is they have the Pink Cracked Ice in them. So the pinks are likely more common than the reds.

So dropped by my local target on the way home from work and finally saw a gravity feed box. I started to count how many packs and there were only 31 left. My gut told me it’s been searched.... but the degenerate pack opener won out. I picked up a blaster as well to meet the target 25 off 100.

Yup... packs were searched. No purple pulsars or auto in the 31 packs. The blaster ended up giving a nice hit so it semi evened out...Click image for larger version

I think you may be right on this.

Can gravity packs be searched for purple and autos both? I haven’t seen any lately, just curious if I have an option to purchase in the future.

Everything that is "loose packs" in retail can be searched...sadly.

Has anyone opened the Walmart $70 retail boxes? Debated buying a few but haven't seen many breaks.

After wasting my time searching the local Target I decided to just buy 1 cello box and 1 retail box for $200 combined.

Used ebay's 15% off deal and paid with gift cards that were 10% off. So it only cost my $153 for the both boxes.

On top of that, I earned $12 in eBay bucks. Not bad.

Very well could be more value I get.... but Christmas Day is the one time all year I bust wax.

Killed it last year, hopefully lightening strikes twice.

Hahaha, just made my first retail purchase (via eBay with Ebates too). I got a sealed cello box for $110 with about $10 eBay bucks and a few Ebates bucks. Agree with you, not bad at all!
