50% and 70% off 2008 Topps at Wal-Mart

So I went to Wal-Mart today and noticed that they still had a few 2008 Topps Series 1 boxes with a big red 50% off sticker on them. The boxes have 5 packs plus 1 extra 3-card pack and at 50% off ring up at $4.97. Well one of the boxes was a little mangled so I asked the cashier if he would give me a discount. He looked at the box, scanned it and saw that it was $4.97 and then rang it up at $3.00, hence the 70% off. I bought the same box a week ago, so I knew that none of the cards would be damaged. So what did I get? Here we go.

Box #1 - The Mangled Box

3 - Card Pack (Dick Perez painted cards)

David Ortiz

Cameron Maybin
Prince Fielder

Pack #1 - Mantle Stories # 54 and Topps All-Star Rookie Team 50th Anniversary Todd Helton

Pack #3 - Campaign 2008 GOP Ron Paul

Pack #4 - Mantle HR History #525

Prince Fielder

Pack #1 - Mickey Mantle (card #7)

Pack #2 - No Inserts

Pack #3 - Year In Review - Joshes Sparkle: Beckett, Hamilton (same as 1st box)

So not to bad for $8. Lots of inserts and I really like the Mantle base card. Everything except the Mantle base card is up for trade if anyone is interested.
