Hi, on packs there is (usually in very small writing) a No Purchase Necessary offering. You have to send a 3x5 card with your name, address, etc to the specific address for that NPN. Then the companies randomly send out the cards to the "winners" supposedly at the same odds they are inserted into the packs. For example, if a Topps insert is seeded every one in 96 packs, that insert would be sent out to one out of every 96 entries received. Check out your packs before you rip in 'em...


"Baseball players will take anything. If you had a pill that would guarantee a pitcher 20 wins but might take five years off his life, he'd take it" MLB pitcher Jim Bouton about drug use in the Major Leagues... quoted in 1969.

I vow to no longer purchase any product that features sticker autographs...
If your user name is this color I'm afraid I'll have to pass on any proposed transactions at this time.

Nope, no SASE. just remember you are not guaranteed anything, inserts are supposedly given out at the same odds as the packs state...

Remember to follow the rules on the pack like 1 per household per day or only 1 entry per household. There is another thread that has a list of current NPN offers. You could get nothing, you could get just an insert, or you could get an auto or GU. Topps high end stuff like Pristing Baseball, Basketball, etc, I have done OK on getting something from. UD is a lot harder to get something on. I think more people enter UDs NPN as there is no limit on the number of entries. Good Luck! and let us know how you do.

Take it from Northice... He is en fuego with NPN's.. laugh.gif

Another thing I have studied is you tend to get less with the higher end stuff than you do with the mid-ranged priced product or lower end priced.

EG.. Ultimate by UD.. forgetaboutit!!

Regular UD you stand a good chance!!
