Well, I'm not upset, but when you post one thing and get upset about how people react, it sticks with certain people and they'll call you on it.
Anyways, here's what I wrote about this situation in another thread: "Well, just got back from a toy run. Stopped at walmart and as usual, nothing. Target had bare pegs outside of Serpentor and a Viper. Toy dept manager was around the corner and asked if I needed any help. I asked if they had anymore Joes in the back as it's been pretty bare for awhile. She scanned the pegs and said they had 3 cases in stock. Asked ME if I wanted her to bring some out, I said yes. She bought out 1 case, and sure enough, it was wave 9. I asked if there was a limit on how many I can get, and she said no. I took the BATS, Serpent and Ninja-Ku (got a case from BBTS this week for the others). I thanked her and she said no problem. I didn't want to push it by asking for the other cases as I would leave some for others. So apparently, this limit/backroom policy is a store by store thing. $7.99 is still not a problem for me. I got what I wanted." |

Not the best place in the world. Didnt mean to upset everyone with that thread, just wanted to hear stories of others experiences and then it turned into how horrible i was so i took defense. |

Nah Jis we've all had our horror stories with retails of varying degrees and every so often we reach our limit. No judgements on how horrible you were cause I'm pretty sure most of us have had that kinda experiance, be it retail resteraunt or otherwise :> And yeah targets pretty much stink anymore. Mine doesnt have squat, maybe some wave 7 which i have no desire for and those are probably gone but even if they had the current singles i wouldnt buy them at their price. I keep checking Kame-apart in hopes maybe they might stock something.

I would be too if they had good stuff but the one by me stocks crap liek naruto, pokemon JLU and wwe stuff and it just sits there so they make MORE pegs for it to put more of it out yet never stock JOES. If thats how k-marts are then I am glad they are gone :> At leats the ones in my area are that way.
