I realized recently that I had 101 posts in my Draft Folder. I'm going to be cleaning them out and scheduling them for the next month or so, so get ready for some posts that may be a little dated or odd. Some of the drafts are little more than a title or a partial sentence, so those will be deleted. Other were for posts that eventually made it already, so those will be deleted as well. So there won't be anywhere near 101, but it will be good to clear out that folder.
This post originated over 3 years ago. I am still working on this set, but am in no hurry and am not sure if the list below is up to date or not.
In March Topps and Walmart teamed up for a food based card release distributed in Walmart's Marketside pizzas. It's a 50 card set and they come in 3 card packs, so it will be challenging to complete, but I'm going to give it a shot. It reminds me of my childhood when baseball cards could be found in everything from cereal to sunflower seeds.

I remember going to Walmart in search of frozen pizza with these cards. Never found any and was jealous of the rest of the bloggers out there who had access to them. Best of luck with this set.
ReplyDeleteHas it been that long since I ate awful pizza for dime box cards? I still like this design. Good player selection.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool set. I especially like the mascots who crept in.
ReplyDeleteI like these a lot. Wish there were more food product card offerings these days.
ReplyDeleteThose pizza boxes were so difficult to store! ... I can't imagine having that many draft posts. I think the most I've had at one time is one.
