If you hadn't noticed, there are a number of boxes with discounted prices right now right here as BlowoutCards.com has started its April Showers sales that will add new stuff every week.

The first batch is here and many of the discounts were dramatic enough that Buzz had to sit down and ponder the possibilities in many of the boxes and cases -- and here are five options that caught this collector’s eye.

2017 Panini Donruss Optic NFL fat pack
Want to chase Patrick Mahomes Rookie Cards on the cheap but with the potential for plenty more like other key RCs and parallels? This might be the best place to look right now as these packs are slashed to a fraction of their original price. Lime parallels are only found in these packs and a raw Mahomes can sell for a solid amount while a PSA 10 recently sold for more than $200. There are, of course, standard versions and Prizms in this one as well as inserts -- I'll be ordering a max of 20 packs just for fun and look for a Buzz Break of this one here soon because the price is great for the potential to be found. (And Mahomes is far from alone as far as notables here are concerned.)

If you hadn't noticed, there are a number of boxes with discounted prices right now over on the mothership as BlowoutCards.com is in the midst its Black November sales now.

Wave 4 is here and many of the discounts were dramatic enough that Buzz had to sit down and ponder the possibilities in many of the boxes and cases -- and here are five boxes/cases that caught this collector’s eye.

2016 Topps Heritage Minor League Baseball hobby box
You may not recognize the uniforms here but they're creative -- and wearing them are names you should know with guys like Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Rhys Hoskins on the checklist. The crop of players here is pretty strong and so is the signers list in a product that takes the 1967 Topps design back to the minor leagues. Atop the signers list that includes Dansby Swanson, Andrew Benintendi, Alex Bregman, Bryce Harper and Mike Trout for starters, they're all on-card autographs here. A couple of boxes should get you a basic base set and a number of the inserts that this one includes. It's a simple but fun break and you can see a sample box here.
