What’s the prizing like at your locals? (self.yugioh)

I wish locals would advert their prizing, so I thought I’d make a thread about it. What’s good and bad prizing at your local shops?

With 18 people in attendance, I got $25 for first, and the distribution was pretty flat, with 5th-6th getting like $10 each. I thought it was pretty fair, though they offer no participation pack, which made me feel a little sorry for the younger players.

I live in Toronto, Canada, and the biggest store has 1st get 2 boxes of the current set, with usually 24ish ppl playing. The one I go to most was smaller groups, usually 8-12 ppl, and approx 1 box of prizing for 1st. For the smaller stores Id see top 4 gettting at least something, and the biggest store giving prizing to top 8.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that stores here give OTS packs with your entry, usually 2-4 packs depending on how generous they feel lol

Wow, that prizing seems INCREDIBLE! What’s the entry fee in this scenario?

The big one is usually just $10 CAD, the smaller one I go to is between $7-12, but thats to help cover the prizing because Konami seems to give the big store some great deals so they can easily afford good prizing, the smaller places often gotta charge a little more to try to have comparable prizing.
