Went to Target today hoping they'd have the ETB's early. No luck, but they DID have blisters:

Single packs had Dragonite (PLF) and Salamence (Dragon Vault) both had Zoroark coin as well. 2-pack blisters had either Garchomp (DRX), Hydreigon (DRX), Dragonite (Dragon Vault) with Victini coin, or Venusaur (DEX), Charizard (BCR) and Blastoise (PLB) with black and white Zekrom and Reshiram coin. All were holo and from the set, not black star promos.

Overall picked up 12 packs, the highlights:

Blastoise Ex
Gourgeist (x2 holo, x1 RH)
Xerneas non-holo
RH Dugtrio
Lapras holo
RH Beedrill
Rhydon x 2
Malamar (mental trash)
Slurpuff holo
RH Furfrou
Swellow non-holo
RH Team Flare Grunt
Double Colorless Energy x 2

Not too bad, though another Ex would've been nice.
 
Well that's nice of them. They also have the Musketeer trio inserted in a blister with one of the previous sets. I just wish it included 3 packs but I am glad there isn't a three card "preview pack". Those are an insult.

Having said that, I'm just buying two Xerneas theme decks (assuming all the cards are from this expansion) and I'm done with this set.

Yes, Target now has the regular boosters too, and those run for $4.14. Blisters have the coin, promo and booster.

Basically the promo card and coin are being valued at $0.80 total. Which is exactly where they've been since the packs got bumped up to $4.19/pack when the code cards started being included with Emerging Powers.

I'm just surprised any single Target has them out so early. They've never been this quick before in my own experiences. Even the Legendary Treasures blisters took a couple weeks to reach store floors in my area.
 
just got back from my local target and they still had the blisters! I pulled my first ex!! Skarmory but hey an EX is and EX. lol
 
They have the 1 pack ones with the coin at my local Walmart.

They also have the Yevtal & Xerneas "collection" boxes.

Basically the starter deck card of those, a figure, and 4 packs for $19.99.

Saw the Yevtal Elite Trainer Box is the only one they carry.
Unless the Xerneas one sold out.

Also it looks like Walmart finally got the Plasma Collection boxes as well.

I must say that ever since the Walmarts decided to move the card section to the back side of the self checkout area (at least in my area) the Plano-grams they use are among the most cluttered & messy areas of the store.
Way too much stuff. Seriously who even buys sports cards or non-sports cards (non CCG kinds) anymore?
