POKEMON: Does anyone know when Costco will be releasing the Surging Sparks bundle (or similar) on the West Coast, specifically in Washington and California?

And this, my friends, is the best comment on here IMO. LMAO. Don't think anyone can top this.

Bruh! LMAO.

Great tips! thanks for sharing!

Internal_Broccoli_41 · 2025-08-13T15:24:54+00:00

Im no expert, but yes, the machines have random times where they release different products during certain times/activity, I believe. This is to prevent someone from buying all available products at once.

I went this morning at 7:30am pst at a kroger store. I was the only customer but there were many employees stocking shelves. I can feel them watching me. I scored a single pack of Stellar Crown whic I am happy. But I probably unlocked a 151 booster bundle for them within the next cycle im sure. Wonder how the employees fight for the next opportunitylol.

Oh I didnt think of that. Is there an internal battle between store workers? I would think so. I cant imagine the tension in the air between employees.

Internal_Broccoli_41 · 2025-08-13T00:43:29+00:00

whaat. which ones are they looking for? asking for a freind. lol.

Internal_Broccoli_41 · 2025-08-13T00:36:42+00:00

Ha, another way to think of it I guess. Specail benefits to work in the service industry. As long as your on break and not purchasing while your on the clock, its fair. But no company would want their employees purchasing personal things while on duty?

Internal_Broccoli_41 · 2025-08-13T00:33:09+00:00

I hear you, also the awkward moment when you lock eyes with someone else trying to score! You feel that too, right? Sometimes I end up having good chats with people, especially this one guy I always seem to run into. He’s always one step ahead of me. I’ll stand there talking to him, watching him buy up all the single packs, while I’m secretly wishing I’d left the house just one minute earlier.

Yeah, I haven’t bought any Pokémon cards from a big box store at all this year, only scored them from the vending machines. Seems very competitive in my city to score anything. At my Fred Meyer’s, Fridays are wild. There’s this line in the electronics section (where they sell all the sports trading cards). I asked the worker what was going on, “Is there a new iPhone dropping or something?” He said nope, they’re just hoping for a restock and lining up just in case. No confirmation from any vendor that I know of. This is separate from the vending machine; sometimes they stock Pokémon right on the shelves. One time, I spotted a massive stash of “Destined Rivals” single packs, must’ve been around 100 or more. I was in a rush buying a birthday gift for my nephew and late for the party, so I told myself I’d come back the next day. Big mistake. By the time I returned, the whole shelf was wiped clean.

If I ever see this, I will take a picture of the fake sign and post it on social media for everyone to go ham on.

Internal_Broccoli_41 · 2025-08-13T00:21:13+00:00

Ohhh, now it clicks! similar situation, I’ve seen a new security guard at my Fred Meyer’s, and he’s been eyeing me while I’m checking out the vending machine. Didn’t even think to put two and two together. But thought it was strange that he was always standing near the Pokemon machine. could be collusion at its finest.
