Whenever I have someone hitting my DMs asking for help with the vending machines.. this is always my first tip! If you’re like me you don’t want to rip any pack.. you like ripping the packs that cost an arm and a leg at market price 😅. So not only do I walk away with the packs I actually want (on a good day) but I also have trade in value from the unopened packs I don’t want! Guaranteeing me some hits to help complete my master sets 🤝. If you found this tip helpful stick around! My goal is to help you find more Pokemon cards. Good luck Poke Fam!!! 🍀 #151

At 4PM PT/7PM ET Walmart will release the ETBs to WALMART+ MEMBERS ONLY!! After 5 hours Walmart will release to all non members. HELPFUL TIPS: If you want a real shot at getting an ETB, you will most likely need Walmart+. The past few months Walmart drops have been selling out fast because of insanely low stock. There should be less bots in the queue since they’re requiring Walmart+, but you should be ready to go with links ready to refresh the same second they release! I’m expecting the price to be around $60 but Walmart hasn’t released anything official yet. Good luck Poke Fam!!! 🍀🫶

Every GameStop drop all in one place! You can use this as reference for more than just GameStop since Pokemon sends the same product to other big box retailers (Best Buy, Target, Walmart)

GameStop made a HUGE move that will change how they sell their Pokemon products. By doubling the limit for Pro members they're increasing the rate that product leaves the shelves.. which means LESS PEOPLE WILL GET PRODUCT!!!! This won't have too much of an effect with less popular product (I'm looking at you $40 surging sparks booster bundles) but we'll defintely see its effects with the more popular items. I'm really hoping the increase in revenue GameStop sees from all the new membership fees will help lower prices. I'm tired of these booster bundles with a 50% markup from MSRP 😫. As always good luck this weekend Poke Fam!! Don't forget to grab 2 prismatic poster collections with your shiny new GameStop Pro membership 😉

GameStop drop this Saturday 8/30! They’ll have Journey Together Booster Packs, Destined Rivals Booster Bundles, and Prismatic Evolutions Poster Collections!!! This drop is a certified banger you won’t want to miss it! It’s very rare GameScalpers gives us product at MSRP.. so rare that I’m convinced their developers straight up forgot to update the pricing online 🤣. Expect longer lines for this drop and get their early to snag all 3 products! Good luck my Poke Fam!! 🍀

Let's goooo I was able to secure some Mega Evolution from Walmart Wednesday!!! I'm still in line for the ETBs and Booster Bundle but I think that ship has sailed 😅. Having all the links up and ready to refresh in my browser definitely helped! The bots were still faster tho 😭. My first time hitting in what feels like months! Anyone else able to get anything??? Would've been nice to get an ETB but I still got packs to rip 😊

Walmart Wednesday is back with MEGA EVOLUTION pre-order tomorrow August 20th!! 🔥🔥 You'll find Booster Boxes, ETBs, Booster Bundles, 3 Pack Blisters, and possibly the PRISMATIC EVOLUTIONS PREMIUM FIGURE COLLECTION 09. Dont miss this drop, it starts online tomorrow at 9PM ET/6PM PT. Recently Walmart Wednesdays have been a STRUGGLE.. SO I'm hoping they'll implement new rules to help out the collectors 🤞. DM me or leave a comment if
you have any questions. Good luck my Poke People! 🍀

Most people think the Poke Vending Machine are all about luck... but I whole heartedly disagree. It's purely a numbers game, and the more times you get out there the more product you'll bring in! The numbers always even out over time (for good, or for bad😅). That's why l've been logging every single visit to the machines, and I'm about to drop REAL stats (from PHX, AZ) so you know exactly what to expect. I spent a few hours today cleaning up/ running some analysis on my data and I'm excited to share it with you all! It defintely helps me put things into perspective when I'm in a hot streak or a cold streak. I have a good feeling yall are gonna really like what I got cookin! Good luck at the machines this weekend my Poke People!!! 🍀

Another Saturday (8/16) GameStop drop?? Let's goooo!! GameStop is dropping the SURGING SPARKS BOOSTER BUNDLE for $40 (market price 😭). If you're really into finding a B-hole Pikachu, head over to FB marketplace for the same price and you can rip some packs rn 🤣. This is a pretty tone deaf move from GameStop. The demand will obviously be lower than normal (just like last week for the Venusaur/Blastoise EX box), so don't feel the need to be there before they open! Good luck my Poke People!! 🍀
