Going Christmas shopping with my wife last December brought us both to Walmart. Walking past the usually barren card section, must to my surprise were 4 hangers of 2020 Heritage Update. (Since then, the card section has been replaced with something else leading me to believe that they are no longer going to carry cards...we will see. Thanks flippers!)
I assumed because it was a hanger it would be something like $9.99 or $10.99, so I grabbed three of them. Why do I do that?
We got to the register and turns out they were $24.99. Each. Right in front of my wife.
So I debated not getting them because of the cost. But after thinking about it for a few seconds, I came to the conclusion...this is my money...I can afford it...I"m paying for everything here...I don't care what she thinks.
So I said to her quite firmly...
"Can I still get these?"
There are three packs in each box. That's $8.00 per pack. Yeah that's me...the smart shopper.
Box 1
Pack 1
Well, that's something I wasn't expecting. A Cody Bellinger on-card auto. Not a bad start at all.
Box 2
Pack 1
This time a relic in the first pack...and a decent one. Maybe you get a hit per box.Pack 2
Pack 3
Box 3
Pack 1
Pack 2
Only eight cards here. Looks like I scanned the last card of this pack in with the first pack of the first box. Oops.
Pack 3
Ok, so it appears you don't get a hit in every box. I do like this set...although there were way too many duplicates. I just wish it wasn't so darn expensive.
Thanks for reading!
A Bellinger auto? A BELLINGER AUTO?????????
ReplyDeleteTell your wife, you got a steal!
(Not sure what you're doing with that card, but if you have no plans I wouldn't mind throwing some cards at it).
Good for you for getting those hanger boxes. I probably would have put them back when I saw the price for them.
ReplyDeleteYikes, big money, but it turned out ok!
