Mixed 10 packer from Fred's
Only had 10 bucks to spend after getting my son's haircut,these boxes are always 7.50 but the one I chose rang up for 9.99,the cashier wouldn't let me have that box at 7.50,I liked it better because the 2 packs showing were an 05 Donruss and an 07 ud masterpieces.I took the one she gave me which had an 06 fleer ultra pack showing with an 07 ud masterpieces.Sorry for the long storyI'll list the decent cards.

For 7.50 plus tax I got enough cards to satisfy me,and the kicker is I wouldn't have chosen this box,so the card god's were looking out for me.Thanks for the read,take care SteveLast edited by spuds1961; 06-07-2012 at 04:32 PM.

Steve, I don't know how you do it.
I got a mixed 10-packer from Target last week. The best thing I hit? A piece of stale gum from a pack of 2007 Topps Opening Day. I kid you not. The cards were THAT bad. And a bunch of 'em had seriously jacked up corners. Let's just say it was enough to prevent me from buying those for awhile. At least until 2011 Topps Allen and Ginter packs start showing up in them.
But sweet Clemens hit! Always great to get a hit out of these things. I can't wait, I'm going on a month-long business trip where I can, in theory, spend money recklessly on baseball cards and only have to face the wrath of my wife exactly once. And it'll be right when 2012 Ginter releases, which she is probably more excited for than I am because she loves the inserts and kooky stuff, so any scolding and embargo's on cards will be lifted quickly.

With me I always have had better luck with cheap retail than expensive hobby,don't know why but if I buy older hobby 2 out of 3 times I'll get an expired redemption.Could you pm me your address I have a bunch of Twins cards to send to you,I was going to surprise you but when I retired from moderating my access to address's disappeared,take care Steve.

He's in a Yankees uniform but the card says astros,the back of the card says the material was used in a Yankee game.
