Canadian Tire Team Canada - 15 Pack Break

[will-411]

I took a shot tonight that my local CT may have put the cards out early. After a bit of searching, I spotted a hanger rack with 15 packs. I grabbed them all, curious to see what the odds were and what might be inside. Here's the main hits (note that between SP's and inserts, it appears there is one insert card per pack, and 4 base cards; there is no mention on the packaging or on the cards that they are a Canadian Tire Exclusive).

On the base cards, I had 3 packs out of the 15 that were exact duplicates of other packs.

Retro, Vs (God awful ugly! Can't wait to see an autographed version of these), and a Canvas

More Canvas and an Heir to the Ice (very nice looking cards)

A Mark Recchi Exclusive - packaging says these are 1:100 packs (combined with the High Gloss /10)

And my big hit - Gold foil autos fall at 1:144 for regular cards... but as far as players go, I'm happy with this one! (note that it is a sticker, but at least it's live in the pack!)

Thanks for the look!

Interesting stuff! My favorite is the Mark Recchi Exclusives. Cool looking card. No card for a free oil change? :laugh:

Where in the store did you find them?

In Orangeville, they were in the sports section, near the desk set up there, hanging on a retail display; the ones I got yesterday in Mount Forest were right at the checkout, still in the box.

I cracked a few packs myself today and call me crazy but I love the VS. cards. Also love the OPC Retro insert set cards. Gonna put both of those together.

$1.99 per 5 card pack. Box has 48 packs so $95.52 + tax
