Here you go. Just got it uploaded. I really enjoyed the Hockey break since it's mostly new to me. I think I'll order some more soon.

The coin looks interesting..Looks like you did okay overall..I'm a big Upper Deck fan and usually any Upper Deck Young Gun is a nice pull..

I'm on the fence with buying this deal because I have such a hard time trading away hockey cards down here in the states...

May have to think about this one..

I have a table at something like an antique mall. I'll just fill some boxes with what I don't want for cheap most likely. Maybe they will sell for me. I've had some guys asking for stuff like that. 

Do you have a link for the deal?  I looked on Walmart’s website but couldn’t find it. 

Baseball one

Hockey one

As of this post the baseball one looks to be out of stock. It usually comes back pretty quick though from what I am hearing. 

Haven't been around much this weekend, but I did manage to rip all 30 packs Friday night. Fun rip - no "hits" but I was able to add several very nice inserts of multiple drivers, including quite a few Jeff Gordon (my favorite driver growing up). Everything was mid to late 2000s, so it was also fun to see some designs I remember quite fondly from my childhood (2003 Press Pass Eclipse, anyone?) and some other sets that I never laid eyes on.

The one negative (and it's really not a big deal) is that it reminded me why I quit collecting NASCAR cards - I couldn't afford it. As a kid with basically no income, I couldn't justify spending $2-$3 on a pack of four cards. Obviously in bulk, it's different, but at the time (back in 2003, 2004 or so) that was a deal breaker for me.

Anyway, all in all, definitely worth the $$ for me and I might do it again in a week or two if they're still available.

I picked up one of the racing bundles myself after seeing this post. Curious to see what's inside; they'll be delivered today and I'll spend my Friday night opening them.

Never thought of checking WALMART or TARGET online for special deals. Can you actually get cheaper deals from these 2 sites?

Awesome thanks!  I created an alert for when it’s back.

Couple led years ago Walgreens by me had 100 card boxes. I pulled 3 Harper rookies (2 variants) in a week. 

I finally received my thirty packs of football cards today in the mail. As promised, I'll record the packs here for those interested in making a purchase:

1. 1990 Score
2. 2010 Score
3. 1990 Pro Set
4. 1991 All World (Canadian Football)
5. 1991 Pinnacle (2x)
6.  2006 Playoff Prestige
7. 2011 Panini Threads
8. 2007 Fleer Ultra
9. 2008 Topps (3x)
10. 2011 Topps (2x)
11. 2012 Topps (4x)
12. 2013 Topps Platinum (4x)
13. 2006 Upper Deck (3x)
14. 2007 Upper Deck (4x)
15. 2002-03 Upper Deck Super Stars (multi-sport)
16. 1993 Upper Deck (Soccer)

My first thought is that it is a good mixture of the major brands with most going to Topps and then Upper Deck. My other thought is that it's not just loaded with the late 80s and early 90s like a lot of these bargain buys typically come with. I haven't opened them yet; when I do, I'll summarize the results for you. 

Just jumped in to try the hockey one. Give it a try, wbaker, we'll trade what we don't want/need to each other. :-)
