So apparently the tins at Walmart did contain Evolving Skies and Chilling Rain. Everybody was unsure if the image on the product listing actually reflected the content of the tins. Well, they did! And now some people who were lucky enough to grab a few or 100 tins are quite a bit in the money.

Evolving Skies booster packs of course sell for $15 each. Meaning the second everybody got a single Evolving Skies pack in their tin they made their money back!
And people are getting three Evolving Skies and Two Chilling Reigns in their tins… which comes out to $55 in value. Every one of those specific tins is worth $55. Minus what you paid, that’s $40 in profit.

That’s pretty good! Not everyone got three Evolving Skies booster packs though.
Some people got Chilling Reign, Lost Origin, and Fusion Strike booster packs. Those tins would be worth $25. Not as good as the Evolving Skies tins but still worth more than what you paid.

So if you were able to pick up these tins at Walmart you were lucky! The value is more than what you paid! You could rip them and turn $15 into 75 cents or you could save them to sell later! Either way, do what’s best.
Maybe they’ll put more stock out as we come up on literal Black Friday, it’d be nice if more people could get a tin or two.
