I drove out to Kohls Torrance in hope of some luck. NO joes at all.
This is starting to get not fun anymore. If luck doesn't change soon I may call it quits. |

I order everything online, if I am lucky enough to stumble on something at stores I will just cancel the order. It saves me from gas and MANY headaches and disappointment.
BBTS POL is awesome to save on shipping also! I used to not care and had everything ship as it comes in, but when orders are getting processed every other week, shipping costs REALLY add up. |

Thanks for the welcomes and answers, folks. Good to hear that another Target is opening up. Lol, I called the main Target number and told them my experience. They sounded pretty upset with the way that store handled my question. What sucks is that she told me that even if I showed up, scanned the item and it says its in the back room, that they won't take it out for me. Oh well.

Wave 13 should be here in a couple weeks, looks like you guys got more on your list to track down...sucks, the only figures I usually buy at retail are usualy doubles/extras but that is after the wave is a couple months old...online is the way to go!

Target in Redlands, about 30 Ultimate Battle Packs in top stock above the action figure aisle as of 11:00am this morning.
Picked up one, left the rest for whoever can drive the fastest. Also picked up TRU 3 packs (Skyduster & Cutter sets) at the Toys R Us in Fontana (Sierra & the 10 fwy). They still had one of each when I was done. No Iron Grenadier pack... Otherwise the IE is pretty dry today... |

Is that a typo? Thirty?!? Why does Hasbro produce the most expensive item in droves like that? I'm definitely waiting till they go on clearance in this case... the chances should be pretty good with the way the economy is sucking.

No hunting for me today, I'm pretty happy after yesterday's haul. I did go to Target after watching the new James Bond movie. Had them check there stock and surrounding stores on the U.B.P. Many Targets have double digit quantities but three stores told me they're not on plano 'til 23 Nov so I'll just wait 'til next week.
