What are people’s experiences at Target in-store? I’m West Coast so mine doesn’t open for another 2 hours at 7am. I can’t make it there until at least 9 am. Wondering if it would even be worth it or if they’ll probably be sold out by then?

They are currently in stock at my nearest Target. Unfortunately it's only one pack per person. Oh well, at least it's better than nothing. At least I have two on the way for my birthday!

Got 5 packs at Target, 3 for me and 2 for the friend who works there who put them on hold for me lol.
Overall some good pulls, got Sasha (I wanted) and Raymond (not interested but glad I won't have to pay for this card later). Was hoping for Shino and Reneigh, but I did get some duplicates so I'm hoping my friend has some dupes too to trade.

You gotta know that the sky belongs to no one.
I had success getting one pack at a 7 am target. I was 3rd in line at electronics and the guy was just handing them out one per person. I got a bunch I wanted. I was able to score 4 packs through the Walmart preorder this morning but was afraid they’d cancel. Anyway here’s the 6 I got!

There was only two of us in line at 8 for them here. The store had at least twenty packs. So if your target limits them you may have a chance

As I said earlier, my friend put some on hold for me so I just walked to guest services and picked them up. However, these were my observations:
1) I got there at 7:45 and there was no one outside waiting. Now, we are getting a huge storm right now in FL so that may be why there wasn't anyone out there.
2) The lady ringing me up rang all 5 up with no problem. My store is the second busiest in the entire state, and we had no limit on how many you could buy, if that helps with guessing if there will be a limit.

I was joking with the wife that someone was going to read an internal document later and go "oops"
Went to both Target stores this morning.. smaller one I was 3rd in line. They were only giving 1 pack per person. Luckily my husband came with me. Was able to get two packs. Went to the other Target.. they were sold out. It was only 0820am.
I'm just really disappointed in Nintendo. Wasn't able to get any pre order packs and all the websites are saying sold out. Just SMH. Dont get me wrong.. I'm happy I was able to get 2 packs.. but seriously?!

I woke up early while sick to go to Target to find out they didn’t even get any... Guess I’ll try the GameStop near me that opens at 10am.

I definitely understand this frustration. Nintendo definitely seems to really lean into planned scarcity, which is only encouraging a scalping demand. I don't even want to check eBay and see how much the Raymond card is going for. I really hope you're able to find more cards!!
Lined up at my closer Target at 7:20am and was first in line. 10 people joined behind me. The store manager was very helpful and came out to talk with us. He said he was going to limit to 1 per guest because they only got 18 packs. He kind of put us on a hold to verify he wasn’t supposed to sell online with in-store pickup option. I’m
Thankful that wasn’t it because it was 23° here in Central Kentucky. One pack is better than zero. I’m coughing my head off and went to the doctor and as I was being assessed dang Best Buy put more up and I missed those. Gah!
Jealous of those easily getting multiple orders and somewhat complaining they only got 6 packs or whatever. Lucky!

I was able to order 2 packs from Walmart earlier this morning and just now managed to get 3 from Best Buy. I live about 30 minutes from the nearest Target so ordering online is really my only option - I don’t want to make the trip and not end up with any cards.

Oof, hope my post didn't seem like I was complaining lol. My friend was originally going to put 10 on hold for me but I asked him to only do 5 since I didn't think it would be fair to take 10 when the store only got 36 packs xD
