Walmart restocks

Walmart Pokémon restock alerts.

During a high-demand Walmart drop the checkout queue isn't first-come-first-served, so opening the exact product link the moment it goes live — rather than searching for it — is the part you can control.

How the extension handles Walmart

  • Arm window: 6:00 PM – Midnight Central.
  • Walmart, Target, Costco & Sam's Club arm 15 openings. Pokemon Center arms 1.
  • Alerts open the exact product page, not a search — Walmart's search results lag during heavy traffic.

Walmart limits to plan around

  • Sold-by-Walmart: typically 5 per SKU per order, and up to 2 total orders during a release.
  • Marketplace sellers can allow more per order, but that's a different offer from the Walmart-fulfilled one — check the seller and price before you pay.

In the queue

  • Keep the queue tab open — don't sign out, clear browser data or switch devices mid-session.
  • A paused queue is normal, not broken. Let it sit.
  • Passing the queue gets you to the product page; it doesn't reserve the item.
  • If it shows sold out right after, canceled or failed orders can return small batches of inventory.

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.
