Dollar Tree Packs
Hello! I have been out of the hobby for nearly three years and I have a question that maybe you can answer! I went into Dollar Tree the other day and saw that they were selling sports card packs for a dollar. I collect football so i bought 5 packs from five different sets. I noticed that on the back of the packs there was a PANINI logo which i have seen on this site before. I got base of some of my favorite players and a couple cool unnumbered inserts and just the joy of opening packs is worth money, but I was wondering: Do you think there is even the smallest chance to pull anything like an auto or GU? And what is the scoop on Panini?

Out of Dollar Tree packs? Very little chance. Good for sets though!
And Panini = Donruss

I would say 99% chance you won't :P I saw them and bought 5 or 6 packs and got a couple nice non-numbered inserts also, but no real hits.

They have them here also. Almost all football and basketball but the chance of getting an auto or gu is probably pretty slim. I bought a couple of baseball packs but nothing of importance.

Welcome back to the hobby!
Are the packs at Dollar Tree the same as packs you'd find at Walmart/Target? Anyone know? I may have to hit up my Dollar Tree and see if they have anything...

Yes, same as the Wal-Mart. Just a bunch of loose retail packs.

Ok, cool...I may have to check it out...I think the Panini packs are supposed to be $2 each, so if they are at a dollar store, then maybe they are half price? Or maybe they are like Topps basketball from a few years ago, and have half the amount of cards as the regular retail packs...either way, I'm checking it out!
Oh, and sorry jackirkh...not meaning to overtake your thread! :-)

You can't expect anything special out of loose $1 packs. Most of these are retail to begin with and the reason they put these out so cheap is because there is nothing in them. But you never know, I once pulled something out of a rack pack.
