Check back during lunch and still nothing. Go back by the end of the night and find a new batch. Doesn't always work But doing this pays off sometimes.

Thanks for the clarification. I never know if my topics are more broad than I'm thinking or not, so sorry about that.
After two weeks of checking the same two Walmarts every night when they put out the boxes of restock, I'm starting to question my habits.
I limit TRU's to Wednesday morning openings, since they have their new shipment put out by then, but Target is the real question.
I've typically seen new figures on the floor at Targets on Fridays, but they get new stock every day, much like Walmart, so I don't know if that's coincidence or not. I've been checking three of the 5 here in town every day during the $6.99 sale, but between the bare Walmarts and the stagnant Targets, it's getting old quick.
Oh and Do Boy, thanks for the CVS tip! Out of around 10 CVS' in Albuquerque, only one had figures, but they were all ones I'd never seen before. I'll try to post pictures later.
