Hi all,

I had to go to the card shop today to get some toploaders. Money is tight this month, so I was not expecting to get any cards at all. When I went in, I remembered that I had some monthly raffle tickets in my wallet. Prizes have to be claimed by the end of the month, so I checked the few I had.

$100 Shopping Spree!

Actually the second time I have won the big prize. Couple years ago I won the same prize.

He didn't have much in stock, but I did get a box of Topps Update Heritage High Numbers (think that's what they are called), and six packs of Donruss Threads (plus the toploaders I came in for.

Did well with the swag:

Donruss Threads Fred Lynn autograph #d /25
Donruss Threads Ruben Tejeda autograph, also #d /25

and out of the box I got the usual chrome, refractors, and inserts. The box states that each box has either a relic or a Real One autograph. I was hoping for a cool autograph and was somewhat let down to see an Eric Bedard plain white jersey card in one of the first packs I opened.

However, in the next to last pack I pulled a very cool Al Jackson Real One Autograph!

Very fun day at the local shop , Baseball Cards Plus in Huntington Beach, CA - recently celebrated their 25th anniversary. I have been going there since I was in , gulp, high school. Great owner and a nice shop.

Thanks for looking. :)

Thanks, guys. Was cool to walk out of the shop with a box, some packs and some toploaders and have paid nuttin' for the whole enchilada!

When I left, the $50 and the $25 prize had still not been claimed. After tomorrow, they will expire. Glad I remembered to check my numbers! :)
