Forgive me for starting this topic if it already exists. But I have been trying to compile some sort of list of stores that sell hot wheels. I ve looked on the internet and it is not easy to nail down exactly ALL the stores.
I figured we could just list a few each of us know of in our respective areas.
Heres mine:
New York / New Jersey area
Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Shop Rite, CVS (limited quantity), Stop n Shop (around the holidays).
Lets see what yours are....

I forgot one more, I have seen 4 or 5 on a peg at a 7 11 a few times.

Thanks for that extensive list Sam. You got all the bases covered.

We have nearly all that Sam listed except - kinney drugs, wegmans, price chopper, and tops grocery store, now.

Additional grocery stores include Kroger, Albertsons, Brookshire(s) / (Brothers), ALDI and HEB/Central Market.

Additional drug stores are CVS and Walgreens

Additional parts stars are O'Reillys

Other places are Target, Hobby Lobby, Hobby Town, Sams Club and Tractor Supply Company

Lowes used to have their own NASCAR line and Home Depot still has them at the Holidays.

DFW,
How is the selection in Tractor Supply? Do they generally have mainlines or series cars?

 

[Milton Fox Racing]

I shouldnt have listed Tractor Supply. I was thinking diecast and not just Hot Wheels. They only carry ERTL/Tomy/Tomica offererings and they are either farm related, tractor/trailer rigs and RVs.

I am in GA and in addition to Sam's list I have found that the grocery store chain Ingle's has a good selection. They have mainline, character, pop culture (Led Zeppelin) and the Orange & Blue series...and others. This is my primary hunting ground.

Sam and I share pretty much the same list except for the Wegman's. That grocery chain is not in this part of New York state sadly.
