Found some neat stores in the beautiful city of Denver.
Here's a few that look most promising to me. I'll try to give you a full report next week:

WALMART SUPERCENTER
Durango, CO
Tue, Sep 5, 2023

Yesterday, we drove 7 hours from Georgetown to Durango. Our group leader didn’t want to take a lunch break so we only stopped at a gas station to refuel and get some crackers.

We missed a Walmart and TARGET on our way, so the first store we could go to at all was Wally World here in Durango.
The size of these places always impresses me and they had a huge toy selection, of which most is LEGO.

When I arrived at the toy section three young and very polite employees added new JW toys on top of the shelf. They got dozens of those small dinosaurs.

Today I went to a local mall before heading South-East to New Mexico.

ROSS
Durango Mall, Colorado

Unfortunately, SEARS went out of business.
The Mall was shockingly empty.
I must say though that we were there at 10 am right when they opened.

The Penguin was only $2.49. No Star Wars figures here though.

Some LED strips and tools can be found here. Some nice items for collectors’ needs.

T.J. MAXX
Durango, CO

This dinosaur was $12.99.

$29.99 for this RC vehicle from Matchbox.
No Star Wars here, either.

$12.99 for this set of Disney figures.

Today, I went back to Walmart before leaving town.

And it was well worth it to come back here a couple days later because the latest case of TVC figures is on pegs today!

WALMART
Durango, CO
Thu, Sep 7, 2023

Those Podracers 2-Packs were added to the shelf over the last 48 hours. Never saw this set before! Now I see it for the first time AT RETAIL! Almost feels like the good ‘ole days.

Now you are seeing the pegs like I usually find em. Well you are still finding more.

Darth More · « **Reply #13 on:** September 09, 2023, 05:36:17 PM »

Well, there’s a little bit of everything here.
But still nothing compared to what it used to be.

TARGET

1630 E Cheyenne Mountain Blvd

On our 7 hour ride back to Denver today, we stopped at one of two TARGET stores in the South of the city.

I had to be quick so this is what I captured within 8 minutes:
