Target restocks

Target Pokémon restock alerts.

Target restocks are usually a cart-and-checkout race, not a queue — the goal is getting the right item into your cart fast, then getting through checkout without tripping Target's own bot protection.

How the extension handles Target

  • Arm window: 1:00 AM – 6:00 AM Central.
  • Walmart, Target, Costco & Sam's Club arm 15 openings. Pokemon Center arms 1.
  • When a matching alert fires, the extension opens the product page in a new tab so you can add it to your cart.

Target limits to plan around

  • Typically 2 units per SKU per order.
  • Typically up to 2 orders per SKU — enforced across your account, address and payment method, not just per order.
  • Pokémon TCG product on Target is normally sold by Target itself; double-check any listing or price that looks off.

Before the drop

  • Confirm your saved shipping address and payment method ahead of time — never fill them in live.
  • Keep the Target app signed in; it tends to hold up better than desktop under heavy traffic.
  • After checking out, confirm in your order history — reaching the cart isn't the same as the order going through.

What it costs

  • Free: the Release Calendar, Print Tracker, PokeVesting research tools, the Discord community and limited alerts — no card required.
  • Snag Basic ($8.99/month): the real-time alert feed, the Chrome extension, Local Radar, Drop Intelligence and the SKU watchlist.
  • Snag+ ($12.99/month): everything in Basic, plus opt-in Missions with auto-checkout on Walmart, Target and Pokémon Center.
