Cheap Pokémon TCG booster packs? Yes, please! The Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet – Temporal Forces Elite Trainer Box (see here) has everything you need to play straight away, and it’s down to just $31.50 for a limited time at Amazon in a brand new lightning deal. At this discount, you’re getting nine booster packs at around $3.50 a bag—a great deal if you’re looking to score top pulls like Raging Bolt ex, Walking Wake ex, or Morty’s Conviction.

You also get 65 sleeves, either Walking Wake or Iron Leaves, perfect for protecting your new pulls. There are 45 Energy cards, a player’s guide to the expansion, and a set of damage-counter dice. The coin-flip die, and plastic condition markers will keep your games flowing smoothly, and it all comes neatly packed in a collector’s box to keep your gear in one place.

Reminder: This is an Amazon Lightning Deal, which means there is limited stock at this price point. This deal will likely expire fast, so get going if you don’t want to miss out.
