Found the remains of Case F at my local Walmart.
Too bad a thief got there before me.

Nothing amazes me anymore! These are the same type of people who cry when prices go up to cover losses from this exact behavior. I know some would say a kid did this but anymore I see adults acting the same if not worse than their children it's no wonder the country is going down the toilet!

I just lucked out though. My wife sent me back out because my son needed Soccer cleats, so I hit the Walmart north of me.
Sad that people want to steal toys that cost less than $4.

At least you found them at the second one 🙂
I wonder if those will show up "loose" on eBay?
It's a darn shame though.

A nice lady brought me out 3 sealed cases of D singles from the stockroom at a local Walmart today. There were only a few on the pegs but no one bothered to stock the pegs with good new cars people would actually buy.
That's ok it worked out for me. The pegs are restocked now with some new ones. Just not the best ones. They came home with me. :)-

Nice BobbyJack!! The kids and I did a little hunting yesterday and hit a Walmart south of us … we were able to do the same thing!! The lady behind me was like, "HOW MUCH ARE THESE??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? ARE THERE ANY LEFT????" lol I told her we were price matching to Kmart's add and she got out of line to go back and get some!! LOL

Too bad there are no Kmart stores in Dallas!! I have yet to see a complete case F and have only spotted the remains in just a single Walmart, this is what was left. The good news was this was the first time I had taken my son with me to actually hunt for Cars and for him to find 3 Cars he didn't have really made his day.

Found the remains of case d…. 1 Finn, and a few Cars 1 LmQs…there were also cone LmQs and Nitroades…. maybe next time! They marked down the Appmates Ipad Cars from $20 to $8 so i got the Holley 2 pack. I did happen to find a Tokyo Mater 3 pack. I didn't think they were even out yet! LOL. Well, actually everything up to the Appmates being on sale part is true. Todays the only day i can get away with that!

Woah nice find on the 3-pack! Is the Tokyo Mater the same as the release or is it the version Met mentioned the other day?

Went to a different Walmart outta my normal zone while on my way to the Sox home opener. I knew Case F had hit there because only Finn was left.
Just when I tell myself I'm gonna cut back the number of places I hit something like this happens which is totally outta my way and I know I'll end up adding it to the route.

Local Walmarts restocked case F singles and case B 2 packs. Finally picked up some Tubbs 2 packs. It should be on to the next case after this.

I've been finding a lot of picked over Case F this week until today, finally found a fresh case. It isn't a collector getting there first because there are plenty of cars left, it seems like Harumi is the only one that has been difficult for me to find.

Found a fresh case of F at the Martinsburg, WV Walmart this morning. I didn't take that much of it, because I didn't need that much, but Franca and Harumi are gone now.

Visited 4 local Walmarts today (Frisco/Plano/Allen TX) and the two that had yielded no results year to date had signs of Case F. One had a lone Finn, and the had the main cars missing from 2 cases (Franca, Greta, Harumi, JW).
I had figured these two Walmarts (along with a few Targets in my area) were a lost cause as I had visited each at least once a week this year and never seen anything other than Francesco's (nothing to indicate they ever received Case B, C or D). Maybe full cases were being scooped up before I ever saw them.
Based on this and my experience at the 3 Targets I went to today (separate post in the Target thread) it looks like there are a few more rabid collectors or eBayers in my area than I thought. Only been collecting seriously since the start of the year, so have not had experiences with people who leave nothing behind, or so I thought.
