Walgreens stocking POPs

Postby toymatrix » Fri Aug 17, 2012 11:27 pm

My local Walgreens drugstore is stocking POPs. There is one neat row dedicated for them on the second shelf down low. They have stocked 5 pieces. I bought the Joker last week and they restocked a Superman in its place. Currently my store has Batman, Superman, Luke Jedi x2 and Yoda.
Walgreens has a unique distribution system. They will send single pieces to stores based solely on an inventory based replenishment system. This means master cases are opened at the main distribution center and chase pieces could very well be sent to random stores. I'm gonna try to check a few more locations.

I think Thor was $9.99 when I got him from Walgreens. He was my second pop ever, and I only got him because he looks like my husband...kinda sorta.

Our Walgreens has a few (5 or 6) and they are about the same as what everyone else has. At another Walgreens I saw the whole avengers set on a nice little endcap display.

Last sunday me and my family couldn't go to the Disney Store due to our truck having problems, and so we went to Walgreens instead and the only POPs they had were Avengers Hulk, Avengers Iron Man and Cap and they were nine dollars i think. :-k

Yea this has my GF very upset lol. They are changing over to a stupid point system that is no where near as good. She does some extreme couponing (I have enough bathroom supplies to last me 5 lifetimes :D ) I got 3 avenger pop sets from her register rewards in 1 week. She will end up not going to Wags anymore and just do CVS/Riteaid/Walmart

I've finally found a Walgreens that carries Pop. It's actually about a mile away from my house, but they didn't have anything I needed. I'll be checking in now and then for chase searching though.

all the ones here in NJ have them, i got the avengers all for $8 each, they were running a sale I guess. When I got to the register the lady said, "oh, what are these? I didnt know we carried things like this", and I said, yeah, walgreens just started and shes like, "you must be a collector, huh?" and being embarrassed I said, No, these are for my nephew and she just said, "surreee, thats how I go to see disney movies" lol, she was totally creepy.

Every Walgreens carries different pops. A few DCs, Avengers, and Star Wars. The POPs for the DC POPs are bobble heads.

I'm hoping they restock with some Avengers. I still need The Hulk and Iron Man. Any idea how often Walgreens replenishes?

Stopped by 2 Walgreens near me in Millbrae and San Bruno....can verify that they have a pretty good stock. Unfortunately, the only ones left in stock at both locations were mostly Spidey, Iron Man, and Batman.

Hit up 3 of my local Walgreens.. since I had yet to begin my Avengers collection I did pretty well. They had just Avengers and Star Wars. Best part is they were all 7.99 so very good price. I have about 100 more walgreens near my house (or so it seems) so going to check them out later. Here is my walgreens haul from today.

I've only ever seen 1 Cap. America (Non Avengers), 2 Iron Man (Avengers) and the one Hulk (Avengers) I got free with the Avengers movie.

And this was in 5 different Walgreens :/ I would snap up a Jedi Luke if I found it.

Decided to hit up some of the local Walgreen's around me yesterday. Mostly I saw a lot of Nick Fury's, Iron Man's, and a few DC pops. But I found these three guys at one store, which I was pretty pumped about since I had been wanting to pick these up for a while. $7.99 a piece is a pretty good deal.
