That is the worst feeling when it's your local store. But, on the bright side it tells you they are getting super chases, so you should still have a better shot overall at that store than someone that hits 30 stores. They can't catch every opening or when they are putting out fresh cases. One day I went to 4 or 5 stores and literally the pegs were cleared by 10 minutes someone getting to the stores just ahead of me. But If you keep at it, other days you score.

I was there at 6 pm and happened to find Yukio. He had to have been there a while as there was no one putting away any product.

More to my point. You just never know. I say it's better to know what was found there than someone else get it and you never even knew it was there. But I can certainly relate to the frustration, as I'm sure any cars collected can.

^^^Make friends with the collectors in your area. I think by working together and not hitting the same places, Raginpage and I each found a Yukio within 15 minutes of each other at different stores.

I think that definitely helps to not be double covering territory. Much better to coordinate if you can.

I know there must be other collectors in my immediate area, but I haven't found any that post of any of the forums…

I know I stopped stopping there every time.

After more than 1 month of nothing on the pegs, today my hubby found Boost with Flames, Brent with Headset and Mark Wheelsen!
We never got the Super Chases cases here and not even Francesca's

All these Case P sightings. I'm feeling left out. I really hope to see it soon. Looks like I'll have to stake out Target this coming week.

I wish my Target would get rid of the Edwins, Francescos and Darrells clogging the pegs, so that way new stock would come in! And of course, the Planes have been out of stock for over three weeks now, so nothing exciting there either…
The only sign of anything new is a Stunt Racers 2-pack of Raoul CaRoule and Jeff Gorvette, though as I don't collect the stunt racers, it's not very exciting.

Found my first case P hiding in the Stockroom of my Target …. not sure why it wasn't on the pegs as they only had 10 Francesco, 2 cone McQueen and 1 Darrell with headset on 12 pegs … either way, I guess it worked out for me!

Can you just use your magical powers and just transplant one of those targets to the midwest please…
