2021 Topps Holiday Mega Box 1

When it comes to new releases, I will not pay more than MSRP.  That said, one of the advantages of "lurking on the forums" is you are able to find out when they are in stock. There is a Walmart thread that I check occasionally and back in December got the word that the Holiday Mega Boxes were in. I picked up two at $21.98 each to get free shipping (This was from Walmart,  not a third-party seller).

Here's the first box. Let's see how I did.

Each box contained 1 holiday ornament. Mine was Mookie Betts...which my granddaughter thought looked much better with a crease in the bottom left corner.

Mike Trout and Juan Soto SPs? I'd say this was a successful box! We'll see how the second box fares. The last time I bought 2 of these boxes at once they were nearly identical...even the same SP!

Thanks for reading!
