Start of the Holiday Season

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.  I did not intend to post today, but for some reason Blogger was not working for me yesterday afternoon.  No big deal, as I am up early surfing the internet for some deals.  

Despite what Wal-Mart and other retailers say, today is the start of the holiday season in my book.  I am not one to put up our Christmas tree before December.  It just feels too soon.  I did however get a small head start to the winter season with a recent box break of 2024 Topps Holiday.  I paid $5 for the Cardinals spot in a break for 5 mega boxes.


I received 6 of the 7 base cards in the team set.  Only missing the Sonny Gray card.



I did well in the silver metallic parallels, getting 3 of them.  This design is not bad, although I prefer the blue metallic from this year or the snowflake metallic from previous years.


Topps collation had not been great across many products this year.  These are the duplicates I received along with another Nolan Arenado that did not fit in the scan.  I do realize this is from 5 boxes, but some of the duplicates came in the same box.  A box with 100 cards should not contain duplicates.

Have a great day everyone.  May you enjoy eating, watching football, and most of all the company of family and friends.
