$200 to spend. What should I buy?

oregonthunder · 11-19-2009, 12:27 PM

With Christmas this month my budget is lower than usual. I have $200 to spend.

I have bought 4 boxes of Topps Magic this year with only a Matt Forte auto to show for it. I have also bought a box of Topps Jumbo, Donruss Classics and Upper Deck.

My question is...What should I buy? I want to buy a unopened box or a few. I was thinking about SP Threads, but I also want a box(s) that has good value.

What would you buy?

Limited

I think I'd go with Certified.

No way on the Certified... Limited is the way to go

FINEST

Or you could roll the dice and gamble on a box of UD Black FB. I'm still on the fence about getting a box myself. But will most likely break down and get one.

Go to the Hip Hugger in Kokomo, IN...$10 lap dances. Get 20 and call it a good night.

The one thing I never thought I would see on the Blowout boards was a Hip Hugger reference. Well done sir.

I get paid on the 1st of December (Retired Military Check), so I do have a few weeks.

Does anybody know how much is UD Black will be on Blowout? I would be afraid of getting a Mark Bulger or something horrible like that. I know it's SRP is around $125

I was thinking about getting a couple boxes of certified, or a box of limited.

Triple threads...How much will they be?

Maybe a few SP signatures (but I have not heard good things about it)

Thanks for the help.
