Wal-Mart

Target

KMart

ToysrUs,

O'Reilly's

Fred Meyer/Kroger

Dollar Store

Walgreens

Big Lots

Those are just the ones that come off the top of my head. Where have you had the best luck tracking down the best 1:64 models?

Wal-mart never seems to restock and neither does Toys R Us. But Toys R Us usually have half an aisle of them.

Fred Meyer usually has a buy 3 get 1 free coupon when they have them for a dollar a piece so that's where I go. Wal-Mart's not bad.

I'm heading to kmart after work today! Hoping for another stray white M3 or something else interesting!

I've had luck with Target, Walmart has an okay selection, but my experiences with Toys R Us (as far as hot wheels) are surprisingly bad considering they specialize in selling toys...

Kroger wins, hands-down. I have literally never been to one with less than at least 50. Usually there's a bin of a thousand or so. Plus, they put stuff on clearance all the time and it's easy to get Hot Wheels for 50 cents or less.

Most of my collection has come from Walmart, the ones I've gone to almost always have a lot in stock.

Target is pretty good, but make sure to search the ends of the aisles, and perhaps the registers.

Most of the rest has come from Kmart, Family Dollar, and Dollar General.

That's where I usually go to because i pass one on my way home from work. Usually find some good ones, if I want something specific and wiling to pay a little more ill go to ebay.

Hot Wheels are this popular over here. They're drowned in a sea of Matchboxes at The Warehouse, New World, and local toy stores. Antique shops have the most Hot Wheels.

Wal-mart is unfortunately the best around here. Usually one aisle display and one end cap. Kmart is a runner-up though, usually aisle space and another display as well.

Toysrus is weird. Targets are hit or miss. Walgreens have very limited selection.
