$10 Target Assorted pack boxes - Good enough 4 me.
I love opening packs of cards – it’s an addiction. Opening that one pack containing a jersey or auto card is exciting. Problem is it’s a real gamble and at $80.00 or more a box it really sucks pulling a bunch of garbage. So to maintain my pack opening addiction I started buying $20.00 retail boxes at Target. For the price I have pulled some nice jersey cards and autos. But, it still adds up and I have purchased more boxes containing a bunch of junk than ones with jersey/auto cards.
Target also sells boxes with 8 or so assorted packs for $10.00. This I find to be a great deal – it doesn’t break the bank and usually I pull a jersey card. Last winter my best score from a $10 box was a Favre/Manning/Warner triple jersey card and last night I pulled a Brian Calhoun rc jersey card.
- I'm done buying boxes priced at $20 or more.
Does anyone else out there enjoy buying these $10 Target boxes?
Also, would love to read some of your pulls from these boxes.

The $10 boxes I'm referring to are the ones that contain different brand packs all in one box.
Not the $10 manufacturer boxes..

I purchased a $7 box at Toys-R-Us a few years back and pulled a Randy Moss 1/1 out of the series that has the mini-dvds. Dont remember what its called, but I pulled a 1/1 out of a $7 box!

I also buy those. I like the assortment of cards you get. of course sometimes, I get a pack of 1990 Pro Set and that sucks, but for the most part, you get some nice small hits out of them. The Meijers here in Indy have also had some of those boxes and I notice alot of them are starting to put hobby packs in them too. the point to me is that 8 packs for $10 is pretty darn cheap.

Yes they are. Yesterday I purchased one. On the front was a pack of 06 Topps Chrome FB. I pulled a Hatoli Ngata Auto. Made my year. 10 bucks for a Hatoli Ngata Auto. I also got a #ed payton manning out of one of the 05 packs and the oldest pack was 04 playoff absolute. I got an Eli.
Problem is they are getting scarce. I only see 2 or so at target at a time.

YUP
They also have if I'm not mistaken 12 and 14 pack boxes priced at 14.99 and 19.99 - each with a different bonus ranging from gold cards, key chains or a jersey card depending on the price of the box.
