Topps Boxes Finally Arrive at Walmart in Canada!

[olerud363]

I was at Walmart with my daughter this morning and as I headed to the toy section to see if they happen to have any baseball cards. For a couple of weeks they've had 2011 Topps blasters for $35 and racks for $7, but today I saw a "value box" (can't remember if that's exactly what it was called) for $15. It contained 6 or 8 regular packs, an A&G pack, and a special refractor card of either Ruth, Ripken, or Strasburg. I thought $15 was not bad considering the price for blasters, so I was going to buy one... until I noticed that they were from last year!

Sheesh! Living in Canada sucks if you collect anything other than hockey! :x

So just because it was from last year you didnt buy it?

The A&G is a hobby pack if you didnt know.

They had 2011 rack packs and blasters in Calgary. Topps only. Also saw the value boxes. All were priced at $25 here. Still a joke since the dollar is even (above)

I would have hit that like a easy girl on a Friday night at 3am after the bar closed :lol:
Translation, I would have bought that value box.
