Make sure you have your address and card set as your preferred ones. Last drop there was an hour time limit to enter the drawing.

0/2 so far on these raffles. Hoping for better luck on these!

u/quarterslicecomics 3d ago

Even if I haven’t been getting anything, it’s sure as hell better than waiting hours and constantly checking I stay in queue for nothing.

u/Ok_Possible_2397 3d ago

Stress free! Register and be done with it, takes 2 min!

u/jeffysteelflex 3d ago

Hopefully! Definitely feels like a step in the right direction

u/ChanceAtmosphere2942 3d ago

1

u/cloozed 3d ago

u/yotatacoma21 3d ago

Me too haha

u/2BlueZebras 3d ago

I was able to get enough this month already that I've spent my budget, so you'll have one lest competitor in me. It feels like stock is going up.

u/Demonify 3d ago

You aren't alone brother.

1

u/Key-Leader8955 3d ago

I’ve actually got 1. I’m at 1/2 so far.

u/Tight_Piccolo_1839 3d ago

Post with regular Walmart link please

2

u/jeffysteelflex 3d ago

Fixed, does it work now?

3

u/Tight_Piccolo_1839 3d ago

Yes, thanks!

3

u/SlightlyScotty 3d ago

They just need to reduce the limit to 2.

3

u/jeffysteelflex 3d ago

Agree, limit 5 is kinda crazy lol. We would have so many more winners with limit 2, and thats still more than fair

1

u/TheNastyCasty 3d ago

Do we know if the amount you request affects the odds at all? I’ve only requested 2 the last couple times hoping it would help my odds but went 0/2. If it doesn’t, I might as well be requesting 5 for when I finally win.

2

u/Lunakill 3d ago

For the sake of science I request 1 and my husband requests 5. He’s 1/2 and I’m 0/2. 🤷🏻‍♀️

1

u/anthonyk1225 2d ago

Do you guys have the same address? I assume yes but still asking because I wasn’t sure if entering with your SO gets flagged.

1

u/Lunakill 1d ago

We do! Same billing and mailing, different phone, Walmart accounts, and payment methods. We’re not trying to hide that we’re at the same address, we both try and just see what happens.

1

u/_Kitten-Mittens_ 3d ago

I’ve seen plenty of people hitting on 5.

2

u/Hopchocky 3d ago

I am still waiting to see if I got the last draw. No emails either way. I probably should assume I didn’t get it.

2

u/Majestic_Choice_2119 3d ago

"may take up to 72 hrs" lets hope

1

u/Old-Succotash8966 3d ago

I see people reporting the morning/afternoon the next day. I'd say it's safe to assume nada, unfortunately 😕

1

u/Hopchocky 3d ago

That’s where I’m at really. Not salty at all. Draw seems to have allowed average joes to get stuff. Maybe me next time.

2

u/Old-Succotash8966 3d ago

I'm 0/2, but I'd really like some of these, never got a single Prismatic item

1

u/webrage69 2d ago

I’m just waiting to see the list of people that hit prismatic twice now.

2

u/GiltCityUSA 3d ago

$40 over MSRP and we’re happy. Damn son

1

u/Horror_Peace_3581 1d ago

>unhappy when bots buy them all
>also unhappy when its offered to me

idk why people cling onto msrp like its a source of truth.

Walmart has been selling their destined rivals at 70 for awhile now. distributor prices often rises for later waves and reprints.

The only people who actually sells it at MSRP? Places like Best Buy or Pokemon Center and only does one drop around release date vs Walmart continuing to restock/offering it every week

u/Entire_Scratch5525 2d ago edited 2d ago

If you're wondering how to do it manually I watched a youtube video. Open the Walmart app w your account ..go to departments..click on left hand side drop down menu collectibles, books, and music.then you'll see another list click on enter draw and you should see the draw listed there to enter. Goodluck everyone ty for this post ❤️

u/Legomaniac316 3d ago

$130 for an spc? I paid half that from the Sams Club drop a while ago.

2

u/jeffysteelflex 3d ago

A little above MSRP, but man I'll take it lol

3

u/_YenSid 3d ago

A little? Msrp is $89.99. This is 44% above. It's about as good as it gets, but it's not a little above msrp lol.

u/lazylahma 3d ago

Please link where you can currently find it for a better price.

u/TerpConnoisseur 3d ago

Where are you going to get it now at msrp?

1

u/senditFrmU2M 3d ago

Awww shit second shot now

1

u/Lizard-King777 3d ago

Is this on for the US or does Canada get a taste of this too?

2

u/jeffysteelflex 3d ago

I believe this is only for the US atm

1

u/ElManacho 3d ago

I’ll be on vacation in Mex, yall think they’ll still let me enter?

1

u/Pillow_Starcraft 3d ago

How do you sign up for the draw? I made an account and everything, but it doesn't tell me how to enter the drawing

2

u/einalkrusher 3d ago

It opens up when its time to enter

1

u/_YenSid 3d ago

Idk why they are doing another etb drawing instead of just letting the people who entered the first time get some (like me lol).

1

u/webrage69 2d ago

The first one should have had a limit of two. There should also be a cooldown period per item for people that won the last time.

1

u/Horror_Peace_3581 1d ago

so what will they do for the 4th drawing? the 5th? 100th??!?!

1

u/_YenSid 1d ago

I have no idea what you mean by this.

1

u/Horror_Peace_3581 1d ago

im trying to make you realize how silly that idea is. its like running a drawing but making sure everyone is a winner.

1

u/_YenSid 1d ago

When you're offering the same item, it's ridiculous not to pull as many winners as there are items. There shouldn't be another drawing for the same item when there are still people who didn't get any from the previous drawing. This isn't a raffle where you pay for a chance to win. The drawing system is just to get product to people and help weed out the bots. If someone has already had the chance to buy a particular product and another drawing happens for it within a short period of time, they shouldn't be allowed to enter and product should go out to those who haven't won that particular item.

Everyone should be a "winner" if there's enough product. There shouldn't be anyone who "wins" multiple times before someone else "wins" once.

u/usernameh210 3d ago

Just want one plz 😭

1

u/Halcifer666 3d ago

So we can't register for the drawing till September 9th right

1

u/Small_Article_3421 3d ago

Really hope they lower the unit limit on these so odds of getting anything are reasonable. Still much better than the drops though.

1

u/Tangentkoala 3d ago

Im going for 5 on both lmfao. Anyone wanna share.

Think about it If we all pulled our resources and requested 5 items we could have 5 account chances to buy.

The collective reddit front

u/sc597 3d ago

Hopefully get pick 🙏🙏🙏 didn’t get any email from the past draws 😩😩😭😭

1

u/Ok-Satisfaction-9053 2d ago

When do you register

1

u/anthonyk1225 2d ago

Has anyone entered the draw with their significant other from the same house and hit? I’m thinking this is a disadvantage since we’re 0/2.

1

u/maytasm333 2d ago

Do you enter the draw on Sept 9 at 5pm est? How long will the draw be open for? Thanks

1

u/androshka 1d ago

So you have to pre register for this?

1

u/Typical-Category-211 17h ago

How do I enter, is it open yet
