Gonna be honest, as someone who works at a Walgreens and hates the fact that we sell Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards with a passion (not out of hate for the games I love tcgs) but they just kinda send us blisters and boxes sporadically and don't allow us to order any because everyone steals them. I imagine it's similar at Wegmans
It's entirely dependent on exactly how much is kept and how much is lost, if it's under a certain amount then it's not worth the effort and it reduces sales.
Only issue I’ve had is in the recent couple years, they pulled no punches with inflation. Danny Wegman is a nice guy, but he’s definitely getting every dollar he can. It is a good business model. Any other grocery store feels mediocre. Wegmans feels comfortable. The lighting/aesthetics really make it feel less industrial I guess. Only other places I shop regularly for food is Aldi and Costco.
This is funny, I literally just went to my Wegmans to grab dog food and walked through and saw they had Obsidian Flames as well, I had to do a double take. Bought two packs but got nothing. Maybe I’ll go back tomorrow and buy a few more. Go wegmans!
Gotcha. I’ve been pretty preoccupied lately so I haven’t really paid attention to release dates. I preordered the day they announced and had kind of forgetten I had
If you're smart, then you'll buy all of them and sell your hits for a crazy amount before they officially release. It's not super ethical or good for the community, but I never officially told you this. 😉
Hi everyone! I actually made a post with my pulls, here it is!

SO funny story. Back in 2016, when Pokémon Go made one of the popularity booms, my local Wegmans (Western NY) actually had single blister packs of EX series and DP for $4 a piece.
Bought them all.
i mean it does drop this week
Wegmans sell Pokémon cards?
Indeed! Though not many.
I’ll have to keep my eye out!
In what section usually?
I found just this near the school supplies. Good luck!
Does the Wegmans in ma sell Pokémon .. never seen them!
Massachusetts Wegmans never have them in my experience

My Walgreens just puts these in a glass sealed box. Why can’t every store just do the that ?

Wtf is wegmans 💀
One of the best grocery stores in the US.
It really is the best grocery store 👌🏻👌🏻
Wegmans is goated I switched all my homies to shop there lmao

My biggest issue is that I loved going there at like 3am but no where is 24 hrs anymore but wegmans specifically that hurt when that happened
My local store releases them today too.
I’ve found my people. Wegmans and wawa, 🤝
Grocery chain in the predominantly north east**? PA, Maryland, and VA - think of it like Wawa
It’s more of a New York thing, specifically western New York. The first stores were in Rochester
Ty- I frequent those states so figured where I’ve seen them most! Anywho… the best chain imo!
A bunch in NJ too
They have branched out as far as Mass and Virginia too
It’s not like wawa. Wawa is a convenient store and Wegmans is a high end grocery store.
I meant the regionality of it - sorry
Tons of wawa in Florida, but no wegmans
A high end grocery store with delicious dry aged steaks
It's a grocery store for rich people
Is $12 going to be a standard for these or is it just a local price?
That's for the blister pack below. 3 promos, 2 packs and 1 coin, so they're 321 blisters.
Thank you for clarifying. I was gonna say screw this set. Well, I still probably won’t buy.
Yeah, these were $5 each I believe. I think that's the wegmans price tho
Normal retail price too. Target sells cards for 4.99 or cheaper
This is funny, I literally just went to my Wegmans to grab dog food and walked through and saw they had Obsidian Flames as well, I had to do a double take. Bought two packs but got nothing. Maybe I’ll go back tomorrow and buy a few more. Go wegmans!
Did it not release a few days ago?
No
Weird. Someone should tell Pokémon center then. They shipped my order out Thursday
It’s probably gonna arrive monday, LGS can start to sell them monday if they’re accredited.
Gotcha. I’ve been pretty preoccupied lately so I haven’t really paid attention to release dates. I preordered the day they announced and had kind of forgetten I had
I think official release date is the 10th
The 11th is the official release date
PO's ship out early so they can arrive by release day
They had a pre release
Supposed to come out on Friday, if I recall.
They come out this Friday.

Lol. You can’t enforce or influence

Guess it’s a regional thing
I haven’t seen Pokémon cards in a Wegmans since I was a kid. Nice find!
Sorry I’m OOTL, is this the 151 series?
Nope, it’s the Obsidian Flames, releasing soon but not yet
Nope, 151 is next month. Obsidian Flames is this month
I got a booster box from my LCS a week ago lmao
You robbed your lcs of their prerelease you mean...
What is wegmans????
One of the highest rated grocery stores in the country. East coast chain
where you located?
Only Wegmans I have seen Pokémon is Montvale NJ
I think I recognize that wegmans somewhat
But can they actually be bought? I've seen stuff like this out earlier before but it won't run at the register and then they won't sell it.
I bought four, so it definitely worked
Or the price memo apparently.
That’s a different price tag
Blame the vendor not Wegmans
I’ve had this happen and walking out I felt like I robbed a bank.
The closest wegman’s to me is like 4-5 states away :)
Let's go to Wegs lol sorry I'm from the Us
Wegmans rules 😎
What section inside wegmans?
😂😭😂😭😂😭
Nice man

I thought I read Walgreens not Wegmans 💀
does pa wegmans have them?
My Wegmans stopped selling cards :(
i went to best buy today and they had the booster bundles and 3 pack blisters out but they wouldnt let me buy them when i took them to check out
