For the last year of so, every time I did a "hunt" in Ottawa, every Walmart and TrU were pretty bare (once I did all of them in a day), whenever I was just casual (in the area) I might see something (but noting of interest for me) that stood out but that was fairly random...
Gatineau side, I find that it's been really odd, that sometimes there is absolutely nothing for a long time, to the point that they don't appear like they never got any shipment in, and then out of the blue, they may end up with a new line before the Ottawa stores do.
But it's the same with the Gamestops, where I never know what a store will have. This weekend, the Gamestop I stopped at in Ottawa had a few SG StarScream, which I haven't seen since the first few weeks of it's release and figured that they sold out as a whole.
That said, lately I just ordered via my local Gamestop or online, the hunt is such a waste of time and gas and it's only been in the case of no alternative that I'll do them... but right now, there's nothing coming that isn't pre-ordered at Gamestop, so it's only if I see something when I happened to need to go to get something that I'll check.. and this weekend, I ended up grabbing a ES Twitch as in hand it looked interesting enough but wasn't planned to go find it.
