One of the two Kmarts in town closed last year, and the only thing I found there in the final weeks was a CS Val Venis with a horribly moldy card which was still like $10. I think the rest of the stock got shipped over to the other one.

My best haul is when I found most of legends 1, 2, 3 for 3.72 each at target. Same thing, I was super stoked. What a great day it was but it was the death of Legends. |

Probably January 1st, 2010 when I got all of Elite 1, Basic 1 (1/1000 Big Show and Kofi Kingston), and Two-Packs Series 1 all in one day. And another is when I found all of the John Laurinaitis BAF set at TRU before Christmas last year.

my best retail haul was the first day of 2010 when Target put out the mattel figures for the first time, bought all 6 basics, all 5 elites and 3 battle packs, plus all of WM Heritage..

Got a load of old Hasbros from a boot sale/flea market for 25p each, sold them for ten times that price and more. One was the purple hearted Bret Hart too.
As for Mattel, I've not bought many, but I got E19 Ziggler, E20 Christian and E20 Punk when they'd literally just been released.

This is my best haul, I got everything in one day except CM Punk, Rey, Cena, and Kofi. Me and my friend split the morrison/macho 2pack and a lot of these were on sale due to TRUs having moving/going out of business sales. Spend $170 total that day for 12 Elites and went to about 14 stores.  |

Cant say that it was my best haul, as I have had a number of them with the Jakks line, but one of my favorites was the day the Mattel line showed up (1/1/10). I spent a ton, but I remember I bought, a few of each Basic 1, Battle Packs 1, Elite 1, and Mania Heritage as well as 1/1000 figures of Edge (First Mattel figure I ever saw on a shelf on 1/1/10) Big Show, and Batista.

My best Mattel haul was probably finding all of E19 at once.
My best haul ever was getting all of the Hasbro green cards except 123 Kid for $3 each at Hills, and they are still MOC to this day.

Best retail haul was going to Wal-Mart like at 2:00 in the morning one time, and finding all of Elite 2. I freaked out. I was so happy, I couldn't stop smiling. Another time would be, when I went to the doctor, and was pretty bummed out. Stopped by TRU, it was like a Thursday, around 11:00 am, and they had the Ricardo BAF set on the sheleves. They only had some, and I asked an employee. He gave me the whole "what we got out there is all we have." I knew the guy from before and he was a bit of an @$$, so I decided to as another employee and he brought me a fresh box. Opened it right in front of me and let me pick the ones I wanted. Called the customer satisfaction line, and left that guy high marks!

Best haul ever was at a KB store, during the Jakks days, I found x3 Mark Henry 1/500 and the figures were buy 2 get 1 free. Just an awesome day of pickups. I did fairly well with the 1/500s. I think I found a total of 17 or 18 at mass retail. I never found the ECW belt though, but had plenty of the WHC and the WWE versions.

I went to a KMart on the day of WrestleMania 28, figured im not watching the ppv, might as well buy some figures. I scored DM HHH, L2 Funk, TttT Rey and E12 Bryan for less than $40.

My best WWE haul is still my first Mattel one. I went to TRU on December 30th, 2009 and was surprised to see the entire Mattel collection put out on the shelves, days before the official launch date. I grabbed all of Elite, Basic, and Two-Packs Series 1 which is the most figures I've walked out with at a single store!
Honorable mention goes to finding all of Legends Series 4 at a not-so-local K-Mart...It was the only time I saw Demolition in any store!
