So howzabout you don't do that. Because odds are good that bribery could also get you barred from that store, if the management so chooses. And even if this is all hypothetical BS, you've still been given enough hard evidence to show why it's not likely to work.

I will say that I've had some fortune with Transformers hunting and asking if a store had items that weren't on the shelf, but that's mostly because A) my wife and I have befriended employees at a number of local stores, including managers, and have a good rapport; B) we're kind, courteous, polite, and try not to impose on employees too much; and c) we have UPC/DPCI information for the employees to check directly, and often check beforehand to see if the store's website claimed they had the items in stock, which helps immensely.

Ended up getting most of the first Transformers Prime releases from the back room because we follow these steps. And because they actually had these items in the back room, and didn't have any restrictions on when/if they could sell them.

I'll be the judge of that.... As far as being barred from a store, do you realize how many Wal-marts,targets, and toys r us stores there are around ????? i mean really ???? you nor quite a few of you never lived in South Florida or actually been to the stores here. As i said, i'll put it to the test. either way i'll report back on here whether i snag something or not.
