I havnt seen G3 for sale for years. However they are still trying to shift some 3.5 stock here.
Even at work we get 3.5playsets to sell.
Oh, but there are the occasional books that are G3 that are on sale

My Kmart still had a G3 Butterpop and a birthday cake one. I didn't get them though because they cost $10 and their boxes were all beat up, and I knew I could probably buy minty ones on here for $3 each. Last week I went there again and Butterpop was still there but she was on "clearance" for $9.  :lol:

I have found four G3s in CVS's in High Point, North Carolina.  They were the pink and orange Divine Shines, Secret Wish and Tangerine Twinkle; Pretty Patterns Midnight Dream; and another Crystal Princess pegasus whose name I can't remember.  My boyfriend found me a G3 Twirlarina and the 25th anniversary Pinkie Pie and Wysteria, also I think in drug stores.

Drug stores sometimes have older stock because ponies are so dang expensive there.  I don't think the average drug store sells a lot of toys, except maybe for seasonal stuff.

I still see G3.5's in lots of drug stores, and even sometimes in a K-mart.  Sometimes it's the glittery name/TAF Scootaloo or Sweetie Belle, sometimes it's the TAF Starsong, Sweetie Belle, or Toola Roola, and sometimes it's one of the ponies with a plastic skirt.  Nobody seems to want those (I like G3.5s, and even I don't have any of those...).

Finding G3's in a store is SOOOO exciting that it's worth paying the drug store markup!

They have a few 3G in a local CVS. Like others have already mentioned, the mark up is huge. I think they cost $10 or $11 so it is understandable that they are not flying off the shelves. Well maybe if they were winged ponies they would be.  :haha:

The website of the German supermarket Real is still stocked with some g3.5 stuff and it's pretty cheap, it could just be that they don't change the website though since they don't have half of the g4s there that they have in the store.

About 2-3 months ago, before I got back into ponies, I saw one g3 at Big Lots sitting on the shelf. I toyed with the idea of buying her, but I put her back.
Now I look everywhere and I can not find any G3 in the stores. I hope I get lucky one day though!! I would love to look through a store like you found. What fun!!!

Oooh, I found a whole bunch in Belgium a couple of months ago, Lily Lightly and some play sets! It was really weird their boxes were so dusty and discolored lol XD

It's fun to find those older ponies, but I always feel bad that they haven't sold yet :( Poor ponies!
Yes, I also saw some G3 and Ponyville and G3.5 in a store called Blokker.
