3 Target trips tonight, aaaand....
Found the Ultimate Battle Pack!
I apologize guys, when I was told there were "5" in stock, I rushed to the second Target (the first being my info-source on which Targets had what) only to find that the "5" in-stock weren't really there, and apparently weren't in the stock room. My intentions were to get a second one for the Tankers, but needless to say, there was only one that I ended up finding and seeing in person.
The first store told me there were 2 within 15 miles with 4-5 in stock, so I went to the one that I thought was the closer one. 15 miles later, I found out that the 5 in stock weren't on the floor, or in the stockroom.
Target #3 was the charm.
The guy at the second Target was super helpful though, and directed me to a nearby Target, and called and had them put it on hold for me. The Target I ended up getting it at had shitty service, and I had to go to 3 locations in the store before I found the "right" place where they were holding it (at the fitting room, makes sense right? I tried customer service first, then the toy department, finally the fitting rooms, where I was directed).
SO, before you head out, make sure you call the store and that they indeed have their eyes on them, because even though the DCPI may show that they're in stock, they may not be.
I got mine at the San Jose Capitol Target on Capital (dunno why the road is "Capital" but the store is called "Capitol" but that's not a typo). It was the last one, and I had them hold it for me and I rushed over to get it.
Here are the stores I was told DID have them though, based on the second store's intel:
San Jose Story Road
1750 Story Rd.
San Jose Central
2161 Monterey Hwy.
Newpark Mall
400 Newpark Mall
Newark, CA (again, not a typo, Newpark, in NewARK)
Happy hunting!
BTW, I think my girlfriend hates me now.
