    How should i spend $20?

    I am out of town and I have $20 to spend so I am not looking for a trade. Instead I am looking to spend some money or packs or a blaster box. I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for the best football packs for the money or a blaster box available. I am just looking to find a good hit out of this purchase I am not looking to build a set. Thanks.

    I would advise getting a 2008 Upper Deck Football box for $20. I have seen sum pretty good hits and seems like a good product.

    the ud blaster has 10 starquest cards with parallel colored versions and 1 ud rookie jersey per box on average you will get at least 2 college to pros inserts and 1 ud masterpieces insert plus 1 sp rookie per box,i have bought 3 and have yet to be dissappointed the box that i didn't get the gu had a mcfadden rc so that was o.k. the 2 gu i got joe flacco and brian brohm.I don't know enough about the spx to comment on that but you could probably get a pack for 20 dollars which guarantees at least a gu and if you get lucky the rookie auto jersey.take care Steve

    I'd stay away from any blasters. They are garbage and I have no idea why people buy them.

    There was one guy on here who pulled a Rashard Mendenhall Auto numbered 1/5 out of a blaster.

    So that makes 1 good hit out of how many blasters?

    Sure there are pulls here and there for blasters but for the majority, blaster are garbage. Did you see where they were selling cases of 07 UD blasters for $60? People were buying those CASES and getting 1 GU out of 20 blasters.

    Plus they were probably completing sets and getting numerous rookies,Also nowadays most blasters guarantee a game used unlike years past,hobby is still the better buy but blasters are the way to go for a quick cheap pack busting fix.take care Steve
