Last night I was playing and my friend used Double... No Trouble to double his dollas. He had 16 so it was doubled to 32. Then he used Retrieval to use the card again and ended up with 64 dolla!!!! Needless to say he had to spend some of it because there was not another 32 dolla in the discard pile, but still. What are some other cards that would be a real benefit to use Retrieval with? Choose 3 Carrots would be nice.

That's a killer combo. We've had Holographic bunny brought back (tiny bit boring...) and I've also seen Shockwave used in succession to itself... But now I'm gonna be saving it to make me lotso DOLLAS!...

You could also use it with: Low jack Kojak Mystery Urn!!! Weil's Freshness Center Hare E Potter (to retrieve Fountains or TMS) Leif Carrotson ...and many other good cards. P.S. Nice animation work Nathan454

I'm not sure I follow what you mean. Why would he have to spend his first double before playing it again?

For some reason, I thought the money had to be spent immediately. If that were the case, I would assume you'd spend immediately THEN play retrieval. I retract my original post.

That's a killer combo. We've had Holographic bunny brought back (tiny bit boring...) We play that you can't bring back used weapons from the market or used bunnies. It has to be from the normal discard pile. It would be a little hard to keep track of seven cards with all three piles.

Needless to say he had to spend some of it because there was not another 32 dolla in the discard pile, but still. Whitbunny is right in that you don't have to spend it right away (although there are cards that do specify that you must spend it immediately). We play with Kaballa IOUs. Specifically, we get into problems making change for stuff, so usually the IOUs are for 1 or 2 dolla.

I like the idea to use retrieval for Cool Change for multiple mulligans or Run Transformer to play several cards a round or with the black pawn rooney's reusables and a 50/50 weapon (six attacks in 1 round ... SWEET) hmmm any p-special that you have the corresponding pawn for would be awesome with this card!

This came up last night, except my opponent retrieved a 2 CAC card. It was still a nice cleanup on his end. (he got 4 carrots of mine that I had just lost due to Weil's freshness Center)

From the card: "May be used once by a player to retrieve and immediately use any Run card from the top seven cards of the discard deck." So you couldn't save Cool Change, Run Transformer, or any special P-card. (Although wouldn't it be nice if you could use it to retrieve Bunny on the Edge of Forever? For example, if you played the Mystery Urn, you could play Retrieval to retrieve BotEoF, and then play it, resetting the hand and giving you back Retrieval, and the cycle could continue forever if you wanted it to...)
