Reddit mentions: The best sports fan shop

I have had over the years several different ways, but the one I use today consists of several portfolio books/binders, three ring binders and ultra pro 9 card pages and two 4k card boxes.

• In the first small portfolio book like this: Ultra Pro 9-Pocket Black PRO-Binder I keep the true collectors items. These are the special, rare printings or just personally nostalgic cards I've collected over the years. These are NOT for play, I'll proxy the card and play with those. (Ex: Alphas, Betas, Unlimited, Promos, special foils, cards over $100, etc. It's really up to you and what you find meets your collector criteria)
  
• In the second small portfolio book (like above) I keep a copy of bench-marking cards. These are cards that I use to compare to others for fakes. I typically try to get two cards of each color, from each set, of those cards that often get proxied and pawned off as real. I take these and a jewelers loupe with me when I am purchasing a collection that I suspect and perform comparisons.
  
• In a large portfolio book like this: 12-Pocket Z-Folio LX Trading Card Albums, Black I dedicate to valuable lands (duals, shock, pain, filter, Scars, fetch, strip mine, tron lands, Urza's saga, cabal, man lands, etc etc. you get the idea). I only separate these because I place a high value in collecting lands for every occasion and pride myself on getting a full play set of each.
  
• In my three ring binder I have the rest of the rares and valuables I might play with. Example
  
• For all other cards, sleeves, counters, dice, etc. I have the 4k bulk card boxes 4 Row I separate by color, artifacts, tokens & gold/multicolor cards, and then divide by commons and uncommons. I keep sections for full art basic lands, foil lands, non-basic lands, etc.
  
• I have a 1k Card box for all the basic lands, I try to keep these to a min.
  
• I have an old school 1997 multiverse 1k Card box for decks Image, and just expanded in to a second one.
  
  I no longer maintain a trade binder. I did when I was younger and played more and frequently visited FNM and game nights. But now that I have moved in to more of a collector role I only play with close friends maybe once a month, so I don't really trade anymore (not sure if the kids still do these days). My trade binder disappeared when I really embraced selling off unnecessary items and started using buylists almost exclusively.
  
  Since these days I do more buying of collections and selling to fund my own collecting I have a great deal of extra boxes, 5k card storage boxes and binders. These are just to organize the sales. Most of the time I sell them with the bulk and replenish with each purchase. From the collections over the years I've acquired a great deal of starter boxes, deck boxes, dividers, stickers, foam inserts, etc that I use in my own collection and to help organize the purchases. These have been some of the most interesting finds, just seeing what other people use to organize is interesting.
  
  I've also purchased shelving from Home Depot to store my collection and the purchases I have going on. Each shelf is dedicated to shipping materials, empty boxes, my stuff or a purchase.
  
  What I see mostly from the collections I acquire is that most use three ring binders for rares/mythics and either separate by color or just leave it to utter chaos (the latter being the worst as its usually shoes boxes and random plastic tubes full, which damage cards).

Well since you asked.


Get a quality headlamp (like a Trunite TH10) instead of the one you have picked. Don't forget extra batteries and dont store them in the headlamp. I have had those energizer ones and while not bad for around the house or shop they arent very durable and I would want something a bit tougher for out doors. But this is more of just my opinion, the energizer one work an emergency.


You have three different firestarter kits. Stick with a ferror rod like this one and some cotton balls. Then toss in a 5 pack of bic lighters. Dont need to be more complicated then that.


I would pair the wool blanket with a survival blanket. Or even just carry a good sleeping bag. Just depends how cold it gets at night in the areas you travel.


Skip the Titan bracelet and cord and just buy some paracord at a fraction of the cost.



skip the campsnail, most that stuff is will be junk quality and redundant.


Tent stakes but you have a hammock?


Skip the tactical pen and get a couple pencils. Wont dry up and you can sharpen with your knife.


Those food ration packs taste like garbage. They will work but you could pack granola bars, jerky, nuts, rice, etc. Better for morale.


Skip the life straw/filter bottle and get a sawyer water filter. Fraction of the cost and is highly recommended by everyone who uses them including myself. Also get Stainless steel water bottle locally for a couple bucks. Allows you to boil water if you need to.


Get an Genuine Ames Entrenching Tool. from ebay. Anything but the Ames brand are flimsy junk.


I would go with a Fiskars x7 hatchet instead of one you have picked out.


I would suggest a couple tarps as well. 8x10 is a good size. Just get a couple cheap one from the hardware store. They dont need to be fancy.




After all my recommendations my best advice is to go out and practice. None of this stuff will do you any good if you dont know how to use it. There are many good youtube channels to watch as well. Go out on a nice day and practice fire making, water filtering, preparing food. Then spend the night. Next go out on a colder day, maybe a rainy day.

Hope I'm not too late but I found some golf stuff in your price range that your dad may like. This tee set or maybe this one or this ball set. This marker set is nice for when hes playing or maybe these covers, this golf shirt, or this organizer. If you want to spend a little bit more theres always this putting mat for his house. This wallet isn't golf related but I bought my SO a hockey related one for Christmas and its really nice. Hope I could help! If I win I'm dying for these pans

So, here's all the details on how people store Magic cards meant to be played, with links.

The gold standard for the number of Magic cards to store is 75 or 100 double sleeved cards. As long as your container can store this many cards in one section it will be at least useful to the owner. Additionally, no one really likes storing their cards flat like your current box. Cards are much, much easier to retrieve from the container if stored edge on (top or sides exposed as opposed to your front or back, look at the pictures below).

The Boulder deck box by Ultimate guard holds exactly the preferred number of cards, down to sub millimeter tolerance. 100 cards and 75 cards

Ultra pro makes a pretty ubiquitous soft plastic box for 75 cards and 100 cards which does offer a little more wiggle room.

Ultimate guard makes nearly identical boxes. 75 cards, 100 cards.

They call their 75 card boxes 80 card boxes but that's referring to single sleeving and even single sleevers tend to appreciate the extra space for a few ancillary cards like tokens.

Also, we do not double sleeve with penny sleeves but inverted(open end at bottom of card) perfect^1 fit^2 sleeves and with regular^1 sleeves^2 over that.

https://www.tolariancommunitycollege.com/how-to-double-sleeve-your-magic-the-gathering-cards-and-why-mtg/

Being able to hold cards is great but there is also some benefit to being able to hold a whole deck box. The Arkhive is a popular example. It holds snugly 5 x 75 card boulders and 4 x 100 card boulders. It also holds soft plastic boxes but less precisely.

When storing dice they are stored separately from cards. Ultra Pro, Ultimate Guard

Here is what works for me! Hope it helps :)

Long term storage:


I have a small unit that all the supplies live in permanently, which can stay in a closet or under the bed, and having a separate tote for my current project.

For you I'm picturing something like this: https://www.target.com/p/translucent-tote-handbag-shade-shore-153/-/A-53913203?preselect=53752648#lnk=sametab or

https://smile.amazon.com/Clear-Bag-Stadium-Approved-Games-Cross-Body/dp/B01NAJELJ3/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1543006502&sr=8-3-spons&keywords=zipper+tote&psc=1 or

https://www.target.com/p/sterilite-174-clear-plastic-under-bed-storage-bin-clear-with-white-lid-7gal/-/A-13794483 to hold all your extra fabric, hoops, and floss.

​

I like to wrap my thread and organize by color, I use these for storage:

https://smile.amazon.com/Plastic-Bobbins-Floss-Needlecraft-Organizer/dp/B000BKVMOM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1543005340&sr=8-3&keywords=floss+bobbin+storage

It has one section that is a bit bigger than the others, which is where I keep needles, seam rippers, thimbles, etc.

​

​

Short term - Project in process:

​

When I am working on a project, I take all the necessary colors and clip them together using one of these binder rings, example:

https://www.staples.com/Staples-Loose-Leaf-Rings-1-Size-Silver/product_481326

Then I have a particular zipper pouch that I keep everything in for a project. There are all kinds of cute ones out there. I'm currently hunting for a zipper pouch which has an interior zipper pocket as well to hold little scissors and a needle threader. Currently I just use a Klein Tool bag that my SO gave me. The hoop, bundle of floss, scissors, etc all fit in there nicely and make it really easy for your project to be portable. It makes it easy to have a central location where the project lives and everything goes back inside every time.

I disagree that bluetooth sucks personally... The gen 1 and 2 bluetooth headphones were admittedly terrible and had major issues with audio quality, noise, and battery life, but we have come a long way since then.

I recently purchased THESE bluetooth earbuds and I literally will never go back to another pair of in ear headphones ever again.

They cost $25, have a fantastic battery life (7-8 hours of full volume use, I've used them for ~10 hours on one charge at medium volume before they died), and have legitimately the best audio quality from any headphones I have used over the last 5 years. On top of that, they are insanely comfortable, have fantastic noise suppression (not active cancellation, just suppression from the buds resting in your ears), and have a huge range of sound, from deep bass all the way to high treble.

I've never had a pair of headphones that came anywhere close to these.

These are by no means the BEST bluetooth headphones but I think they are absolutely worth the price. They fit your loud criteria and they fit the jamming them in your ear criteria. They also comes with a ton of different buds and and the part that allows you to fit it to your ear depth.

In conclusion, loud, flexible, sizable, great price.

edit: you're in the right sub since it's pretty general purpose

I'm almost 23 and I never learned to tie my shoes because I was born with an upper limb amputation. Honestly it used to really upset me when I couldn't tie my shoes and others could. Honestly, though? I only have one singular pair of shoes that even HAVE laces, and they zip up the side. As an adult I stopped wearing standard tennis shoes and switched to slip on ones with elastic straps that don't tie but look classy. I started wearing more boots, dress flats, and so on.

That being said, you've got several options.

1. There are such things as no tie laces. To the untrained eye they look exactly like normal laces and you wouldn't know any different.
   
   There are these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0186Z5QAO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_glfjDbHS5T5G1
   
   These: https://storesixty.com/products/easylace-no-tie-elastic-shoelaces
   
   And so many others. There are magnetic options, ones that pull to tighten, etc. Back when I was a kid they were uncommon so I didn't use them but these days they are super popular, heavily marketed, and extremely common in athletic markets.
   
   
2. You can get sneakers like mine that look like they are laced but are actually elastic.
   
   Like this: https://m.shoes.com/skechers-dynamight-break-through-bungee-lace-sneaker/829911/1816605
   
   And this: https://m.shoes.com/florsheim-edge-3-eye-oxford/844999/1865161
   
   There are tons of styles and choices.
   
   
3. You can look into resources aimed at adults to teach you. One thing to understand is that you are not alone in this dilemma. MANY people actually have this problem, in fact some things like Dyslexia can actually cause difficulty in learning to tie shoes. You can find sources online that are much more adult friendly and not childish and patronizing by searching for sources geared toward stroke victims, surgery rehab, dyslexia, etc. Don't get stuck on just one method of tying them. The bunny method works for some and not others and the same goes for other methods. Just find what works for you.

I'll link my storage solution because maybe someone will get some use out of it ( /u/TLan718 ?) but I'm not sure it will be a great fit for you.

On the other hand, one of the components I use (the cardboard boxes) may work just fine for your needs:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000K41E6K/

You might not need to order these exact boxes from Amazon. Most local game stores will sell you similar boxes of varying sizes for pretty cheap so this may work out better for you.

The “base” box is pretty easy to find, my local comic store has them sometimes but you can also find it here 3200 Count Box

For the small dividers within each row we cannibalized an older box of similar type, though most any other cardboard /box could work. (We had several of these 500 ct Box)

While sleeving is costly, it protects the investment (plus some of us have young kids that like the pictures :p) and also has a nice side effect of having a TON of empty sleeve boxes that make perfect “holders” for stuff.

Have fun making your box!

Cheers.

Harry Potter Golden Snitch Pendant Pocket Watch Necklace Wings Chain

Handmade Vintage Owls for Harry Potter Deathly Hollows Wings Leather Bracelet

I was looking for snitch earrings, as my friend does them cheap and they're awesome. They were surprisingly expensive on Amazon though.

CROCHET THIS FOR ME! If I win, I'd love a nice warm hat that covers my head and ears. Black, green or purple are all fine.

First, before I continue, I want to clarify: It's possible for something to have no positives for the consumer at the time of purchase and still have a long term net positive effect.

When Apple removed the floppy drive, this had no benefit for the customer buying the Mac without a floppy drive. But, it helped push anyone making Mac applications toward CDs, and the customers eventually benefited.

When Apple dropped OS 9 compatibility mode, it forced a lot of companies to upgrade their software. (Meanwhile, today, at work, I still support software occasionally that was written for Windows 3.1.)

When Apple refused to support Flash, this had no benefit for the customer at the time of purchase. But it drove third party websites to switch to HTML5, which generally ended up, long term, resulting in a better mobile web experience.


So when I say that I disagree with your assessment that Apple's rationale with this is just to sell expensive earbuds, I don't necessarily think you're wrong that there is zero consumer advantage- at least, at the moment- to removing that port. The customer who buys the iPhone 7 gains little from lacking the port. (Maybe waterproofing and that 100 mah of battery.)

But I also think you're flat out wrong about the motivation. Apple is trying to reproduce their Flash push; as Apple makes up ~30% of the US' smartphone market and ~15% of the world's, they think that by eliminating the headphone jack, they will push the third party market to focus on Bluetooth. They're gambling that within a couple years, we'll see much higher wireless headphone sales and better wireless products.

While I don't agree with them on this as much as I did on Flash- as Gruber put it, "Flash/HTML5 was bad/good. Analog jack/AirPods is meh/good"- I genuinely do believe that Apple's motivation is to move the industry away from wires to wireless. (And if they, in the process, can leverage Beats and the Apple brand to sell wireless headphones, bonus.)

The existence of a $159 earbud is to demonstrate how to solve many of the problems inherent to Bluetooth devices, such as pairing, in a single product that "just works" as Jobs would say. I'd expect to see a lot of third party headphones similar to out outstrip it on price.

(Believe it or not, $159 is a surprisingly reasonable price. There are very few wireless headphones with microphones battery pack cases of that quality in that price range, let alone with the directional beamforming mics and other advantages. Even Kickstarter products are often in that range.)

> Its impact on the final cost of the phone is negligible, the space it takes up is trivial.

Honestly, I think the removal was more for ease-of-waterproofing than anything. The headphone jack is the hardest part to waterproof, and instead of retooling the internal design and possibly taking up more space to waterproof it, they removed it and found the extra space allowed a little more other stuff.


> Now for everyone who doesn't care about Bluetooth buds, which is most people, life involves an adapter.

More realistically, they'll discover Bluetooth buds, which are almost in the $20 range these days.

Hey bud, I have an innistrad plane cube for drafting thats pretty sweet. I can go over what I did if it helps at all.

I started with only Innistrad, great Draft environment to use as a base. Then I replaced all of the vanilla creatures or unplayables with another card from DKA, AVR, or SOI that fit the same role but had a relevent ability or stats. (Ex. a 2/2 zombie for 1b that had no abilities was replaced by a 2 mana zombie in the same rarity with more relevent abilities)

Right now the cube is about:
50% INN
20% DKA
10% AVR
20% SOI

Im trying to recreate a draft environment so I manueally create packs and put them in team bags (https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Poly-Team-Bags/dp/B00095NR1K) to have them ready for each draft.

The slits for common, uncommon and rares is (5/3/1)
I keep flip cards seperate, the are split (3/2/1)

When I make packs I shuffle all the commons together, then repeat for uncommons, rares, and Flip cards.
Each pack is 9 Commons,3 uncommon, 1 rare, 1 flip card, and 1 land. The land could be any nonbasic land from any Innistrad set, put in for fixing and utility.

Right now my rares can be from any set and are pretty balanced, nothings unbeatable.

I also keep the flip cards in clear hypermattes while drafting and playing, but I have a checklist for each in a black sleave for proxying in the deck.

It is alot of sleaves and the cube fits a normal 2 row. But if you buy bulk, its not too bad. Heres where I got mine (https://www.amazon.com/KMC-Barrier-PERFECT-packs-Total/dp/B00T3Z72Q8/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1465811659&sr=1-2&keywords=perfect+fits, https://www.amazon.com/KMC-Hyper-Matte-Sleeves-Sheets/dp/B0177K3VU6/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1465811692&sr=1-1&keywords=kmc+hyper+matte+10)

If you have any questions or I wasnt clear just let me know.

Sorry about the formatting in advance!

Regarding tying your shoes. If it is something you'd like to continue to do, awesome, but if not, I'd like to recommend something I use now that's made my life easier.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0186Z5QAO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Those are No Tie Shoelaces. If you want or have a friend to help you out, I think it'll make a huge difference for you. May have to work on the proper size of the shoelaces for which ever foot/shoe but I slip my shoes on in 2 seconds and they are comfortably snug to my feet so they never feel like they are going to come off.

Chum's Wallet A slide out place for your most used credit card. Transparency for your ID. Key ring for your keys. And most importantly for me, zippers for your coins. I only grab this (which I hang on a 3M Command Hook) + cell phone on my way out the door in the morning. I used this to replace a Dash 2.0 Minimalist wallet where even modest coin management was a bit of a chore. As an aside, and I travel a bit for business, for receipts, there's CamScanner.

I've long minimized coins by never carrying more than a dollar's worth, trying to turn it into as many quarters as possible (something I learned from my father). If something is $1.28, and all you have is a 10 dollar bill and change, pay $10.28 if you have it, $10.03 if you don't, getting back three quarters. If something is $5.74, pay $5.74, or in lieu of that, $5.24. If you have a lot, many grocers will allow you to turn any amount of coins into gift cards. Then there is tipping. The easiest thing of all is to pay everything with Visa. Every automatic bill paid (like Utilities, Phone, Internet, Water) is one less transaction you have to fuss with, and all your expenses get tracked and turned into pretty charts in places like Mint.com besides. At the end of the month, I enter a value and press a button to automatically transfer it from my bank account to the credit card company.

There are specific boxes for storing your decks in, and the starter deck might even come with a cardboard box that is designed for that (but it’s usually cheap). No need to go all out on accessories, but if you want you can find pretty cheap Ultra Pro deck boxes in a variety of colors. Here is an example of the generic Ultra Pro box: Ultra Pro 80 Card Deck Box - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002TT3B6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_fJTZDbYJVJ7Q8

Another thing I might recommend is card sleeves. These protect your cards in your deck from getting damaged, and generally makes shuffling easier. They can be slippery at first, but once you play with them more they work well. They also come in a variety of colors, which makes it a fun way to personalize your decks! Only use 1 color per deck to avoid obvious cheating though haha: Ultra Pro UPR85604 Eclipse Standard Matte Card Sleeves https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B8CJHTH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_bOTZDb50A39NK

There’s a really nice set of Bluetooth headphones I have, they’re wired together so there’s some weight to them but they work really really well and have a great battery life.

They’re not expensive but the sound is awesome.

lol! Seriously thank you for that laugh this morning.

I only covered the top with sand because im experiencing a small fungus gnat issue atm (I have about 7 different carnivorous plants in there so it isn't that big of a problem). This is the light im using. I have 2 of the hanging directly above it. about 2-3 ft away from the top of the plant

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014ZZLP8G/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Not much fertilizing as it is still fairly young and I didnt know I should be. I did just repot it though so the soil should have some good nutri's (Nutrients) in there or so I would imagine. I water when ever my meter says its dry deep in the soil. (didnt trust the minger method for my first time around.) Yes there are holes in the bottoms of all my containers... im not that noob I did read before i got started lol air temp in the room fluctuates from 74-80. (Im in Las Vegas) but I have a fan in the room if it gets to muggy and I got lucky and my home had an a/c vent in the closet they are in already. Also humidity in that room is usually high to medium even in this dry heat with some things i do.

That's why it's best to invest in another tool and make it super easy for your customer to open their cards. These are just big enough for toploaders to slide into, they are self-adhesive, and they're easy to open. Most LGS should also have them for far less than $4 as well. My LGS sells them for $2.29, right next to the top loaders and penny sleeves.

Things I would consider mandatory equipment on the bike: everything you need to change a tire (don't forget cotter pins), spare tubes (they're really hard to find, as it turns out, when you're on the road, and not everything can be patched) and a small patch kit, and a bottle of oil. Check your oil every time you gas up, and your tire pressure every morning. Fortunately the tire change kit can largely be divvied up between all of you.

Research the climates and weather of the places you're riding through. This, for me, was absolutely, entirely crucial. You don't want to be riding for hours while shivering, hugging the tank as close as possible to keep warm. And the "hand on the headers" trick is tough to do on KLRs (at least, I think it is) because the engine is so buried.

I'll echo those that have said "less is more" when it comes to equipment. Focus on things with multiple uses: for example, an all-stainless water bottle that you can heat directly on a fire. Packing up the campsite can take a decent amount of time (though I guess it's better if you're not going solo; more hands to spread the work around) so I got pretty good at the little tricks (ex: you can put water directly in the oatmeal packet and then the only thing you have to clean is a spoon). You'd be amazed how important food and water strategy can be.

The seat is uncomfortable (your ass will hate you). Your back might not be too happy either, especially if you're riding with a backpack.

Don't forget a knife. Tarps are awesome -- I had great weather and ended up sleeping under the stars in a blanket/tarp burrito more nights than not. For that purpose I specifically recommend something like this, which is a ruggedized emergency blanket type dealio with one side reflective and one side olive. Again, knowing weather patterns ahead of time is crucial for stuff like this.

heres my dog album

I have two pitbulls, had a third till she got sick and had to be put down :( and an australian shephard who is strong enough to pull both my pits around when they play tug of war. i know exactly what toys last the longest.

This ball is by far their favorite and lasts until we lose them. your dog will rip off the feet, the horns and the squeeker but the ball part will last forever!

Other pit owners claim this will last forever it took my dogs less than a minute to rip it open and rip out the stuffing. however, the outside has lasted a very long time! so if you dont mind it being split open it should last.


if i see a garage sale or go to a thrift store ill pick up a basket ball the dogs pop it immediately and it gets ripped apart but the majority of it has lasted a long time

if you go grocery shopping they have beef bones im pretty sure that what their called. but they not only feed your dog but the bones last a long time too.

if i win, the tick twister would be great since i live in the woods and its tick season.

This product is by far the greatest LT thing you could possibly buy. This is him (minus his helmet & huge jacket) sitting on the bench during the AFC Championship game. Teach your kid how to give up in the most important game of the season. Great for all ages.

These watch straps should fit over the top of a wet suit, useful for diving, with a waterproof watch of course.

When I used to have a dog it had a favorite toy, this is similar to what he had.

A hat for the transfer to colder weather, it's also your favorite colour.

An NBA basketball so you can be pro.

Mmmmm Chocolate.

Crocodile disguise.

And all I can say for the last one is just go visit them:)

My preferred methods:

1. Put unsleeved cards in a Team Bag. Place a top loader on the front and the back (the cards are sandwiched between the 2 toploaders). I use two pieces of Painter's Tape, one wraps around vertically and one wraps around horizontally. I send cards like this to buylist and seems to work well, since most vendors do not like individually sleeved cards.
   
   
2. Put cards in perfect fits, then put them in a Clear Hinged Box. They make different sizes depending on how many cards you need to send. I like to put them in sleeves because the cards rattle around in the boxes. Not sure if it actually causes any damage, but the sleeves make me feel better.
   
   
   I am not a big fan of shoving a bunch of cards in a penny sleeve, which is another common solution. I've received cards like this, and one thing that happens is that either the front or the back card slips out a little, then the pressure from the other cards creates an indentation in the card. It's happened to me more than once.
   

How about this golf ball wine stopper? I got one for my 'father in law' and it's his favorite! You could also get him these Houston Texans golf balls and tees! and still be under $30 :) Good luck!

If you're prioritizing price and durability, the Spalding NBA Street ball is a decent choice: https://www.amazon.com/Spalding-NBA-Street-Basketball-Official/dp/B0009VELG4/ref=sr_1_4?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1537646004&sr=1-4&keywords=outdoor+basketball

It's only like $15. It's rubber, so it's definitely gonna feel "cheaper" than a nice indoor-only ball, but it's made to be played outside and shouldn't get messed up from snow and ice. Should also be fairly easy to grip even if it gets somewhat wet.

Another option is an indoor/outdoor basketball like this: https://www.amazon.com/Spalding-NBA-Indoor-Outdoor-Basketball/dp/B000A7OUE0


About $30, and will feel more similar to an indoor game ball, if that's important to you. I suspect that ball gets a little more slippery when wet.

Do you mean one sleeve specifically to store 7 cards between games?

That's pretty specific; I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like that. If you want to protect your cards you might consider getting deck protectors for each individual card and then getting a box to store them in, although I'm not actually sure if the house cards fit into deck protectors.

Hope this helps.

The EFX one is pretty good (here's it at Amazon.com), but I think the best value is easily The Black Series stormtrooper helmet, which is being released on Force Friday (September 30). It's even based on the stormtrooper helmets from Rogue One (check out this comparison by "spacebob" on the RPF), and you can already pre-order it from a few places (example). The only problems I can see with it are that the lenses look a little too transparent and Hasbro might find a way to make another surprisingly-terrible voice changer feature.

pffft, after sleeving I can barely fit everything in the box if I use dividers with that insert and separate everything out. Not sure why everyone was excited because they "finally made a decent insert". For an LCG, LOL. It's as pointless as buying a one bedroom house before having triplets. And fostering several dogs. While your brother moves in. And you bought a pony.

Gonna go the same route I did for Lord of the Rings: A binder for each aspect and then card boxes for heroes and villains.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000K41E6K/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[edit] y’all can downvote all you want. The number one most useless thing to a living card game is what kind of insert came in the base box. Its pointless

Lord of the rings. Box is unsleeved. One binder per sphere for sleeved player cards, three cards per insert pouch. Releases werent once per month.

But goddamn that base box ditch insert sucked.

Had same stupid base box ditch insert. I almost care at this point.

But yeah, that marvel champions insert is totally awesome. You guys have convinced me.

Workout out clothes - always. Gym bag - never had this one but I linked it on my 'wish list' since it seems to suit my purposes. I just got new shoes last year so I'm good on that. I'm... easy :)

Walmart. Any arts and crafts store. They have cheap tote bags

https://www.michaels.com/search?q=Tote%20bag#q=Tote%20bag&pmpt=qualifying&srule=price-low-to-high&sz=24&start=0

I would recommend this

Clear Tote Bag NFL Stadium Approved - 12" X 12" X 6" - Shoulder straps and zippered top. The clear bag is perfect for work, school, sports games and concerts. Meets NFL and PGA Tournament guidelines.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010RBSAC6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_g0EkDbAKX1VTZ

These are really great as well.

Great sound, great retention, no complaints.

Aside from the actual boards, you could probably organize almost everything into something like these. The 4-row box will fit on the Kallax shelf nicely. I do this for all of my games that are almost entirely cards. Bag the chits in there with the cards. You could easily fit 4-8 games in one of these boxes as long as it doesn't have any really large components. Write what games you're storing in there on the boxes. Then file all the boards alphabetically with some kind of tab divider.

I just bought these guys a couple weeks ago, and they seem like they are good quality for the money. No issues pairing, charge quickly, and sound ok. Obviously not amazing, but good enough.

Before, I had these guys and I liked them, but they didn't stay in my ears as well as I had hoped, and the they weren't very loud.

I have THESE and like them and they fit very well, comes with diffwerent size tips and don't fall out.

Can't beat it for the price and they sound great.

Thanks for your insights. I've changed tack quite a bit about the structure. I found a pretty simple deep water setup that looks very doable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxVHS9o5yDA

As far as lights go...Whew, it's surprising how expensive the options out there are. I'm very limited with respect to that. Would it work to just get one of these? http://www.amazon.com/Efficient-TaoTronics-Lights-Growing-Garden/dp/B014ZZLP8G/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1456898476&sr=8-7&keywords=hydroponic+grow+light Maybe supplement with a regular old CFL or two if necessary?

Just to be safe, I ordered two 12x12x6 clear bags and will just use those. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NAJELJ3?pf_rd_p=76bd99fd-409f-46a4-9ff6-b66b5703e95b&pf_rd_r=AYSH4BX5S90HM5RS99KJ

Better safe than having to scramble for one of those lockers on a bobblehead day.

I have one of these and it's awesome. It has a nice little zipper pouch to store important small things like earbuds and a ton of room for clothes or lifting gear or whatever and even has a shoe tunnel, which is dope.

This is the one im using, pretty good quality and not to big can fit in your luggage bag if youre flying. Having it able to fit it in my luggage and a compact size is what i was mainly looking for

Found them for you!

This is what I got from amazon. Worked very well. The flagpole towards the bottom locks very well but not quite as well at the top. I just put a little duct tape around each extension point and it worked great all weekend long. The 20 foot height made our flag visible from real far away.

I'm not what one would call 'artistic' so putting one together myself would come out looking like it was done in arts & crafts time at a special ed school. Do you know someone that would commission one? I find it's much easier to pay people that know what they're doing than dicking it up myself and feeling shame

Edit: Is something like this decent? or are there better ones? http://www.amazon.com/EFX-Star-Stormtrooper-Helmet-Replica/dp/B005J35PG2

WHAT! I love that smell.

I wouldn't say that out loud to many people you don't trust. They make air fresheners of that smell because people love it so much!!

I'm not sure, but it looks like a baseball card organizer box. Comic book and Baseball Card stores should have them.
Something like this, possibly.
http://amzn.com/B000K41E6K
Looks like they have different lengths of one row boxes all the way up to 5 row boxes.

i started with two of these and then bit the bullet and bought this guy. worth it. the little ones are fine for a couple of plants but the rectangular one is SO bright (PS- do NOT look at those when you're plugging in the light) that you can have one several feet above your couple hundred seedlings and it's fine.

  Also, you're a cool brother.

Not sure if this will help but I'll chime in with my experience. I went to home depot and purchased regular old LED bulbs (5500k) daylight. I also got one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014ZZLP8G/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1465930547&sr=1&keywords=taotronics+led. I hung em using standard clip aluminum hoods. I grew everything from seed using this set up (3 of the LED daylight bulbs) and that LED growlight. Basil, Parsley, Coriander, Nasturtium flowers, Tomatoes, Cucumbers and peppers. Now, I'll say, that the lights were perfectly fine to grow everything, but once the plants were big enough, I would transplant outside or place in my sun room with sound facing window.

i like that all of these are true except when he played NE. against NE we got things like "when you go into the middle of our field and you start doing the dance that Shawne Merriman is known for, that’s disrespectful to me." and this.

These are pretty damn great for the price : https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B014EGE9G6/ref=ya_aw_od_pi?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Just recently got them and have ran 3 times with them so far (once during the rain!) and they've been flawless.

If you love the number 9 like I do, stock up on some of these as well http://www.amazon.com/Hoppes-Air-Freshener-Pack/product-reviews/B007ED76P8

BCW storage boxes are pretty fantastic when it comes to storing cards. I usually just mark off a row for sleeves and store them by color and manufacturer.

They can be found in a ton of places, but if you want to buy in bulk, their main site is definitely the place to go.

These boxes are cheap, sturdy, stackable, and hold a ton of cards. Also, they come in a lot of sizes.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I ended up going with these. Bought them new off eBay for 20 and I'm in love

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

Have you ever tried using a grow light to supplement the natural light you do get?

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014ZZLP8G/ref=sr_ph_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485978136&sr=sr-1&keywords=grow+light

If you want total budget ones I love my bluetooth headphones I got off amazon 2 years ago here's the link:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014EGE9G6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Really surprised with the quality and sometimes I have to re-pair (not repair lol) them to get them to work properly but they have good battery life too

Thanks, I'm using Ultra Pro Team Bags - they've been used 7-8 times at this point, and they're still good for plenty more uses before being replaced. A pack of 100 should hopefully last me a year, maybe longer.

I use wireless bluetooth headphones. Stay in real well, are comfortable, block noise when off, and as a bonus can turn the music on.

I use these ones. At $15 they're cheap enough to try out/break, but I've had them for two years and they are still going strong.

I use a 350 watt VIPARSPECTRA for my Schefflera "luseane", and it is too much... i have to put it on a timer that is on for an hour off for an hour, or else it burns it.

For my other tropicals i use two of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HQ35ULC because the light throws the light pretty wide, you really gotta put these right on top of your plants.

and one of these:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014ZZLP8G
Throws a much narrower (and brighter) beam, but it is purple/pink and makes my house look like a strip club from the street. It is the reason I ended up getting the other two above... they produce a much whiter light. But it is effective. Got crazy growth out of my fukien tea during winter with it.

No more tropicals for me...

I moved a 30,000 card collection from America to South-East Asia and back using boxes like these: http://www.amazon.com/BCW-Monster-Storage-Holds-trading/dp/B000K41E6K/ref=zg_bs_2358923011_1

I used twine to tie the lids on and it didn't cause any issues. Just have to make sure there isn't free space to allow the cards to slide. I used deckboxes and legos to fill in the free space.

This one from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OWM2BY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wasn't too tall so it didn't hit any of the decorations that are above (e.g. while walking on/off Rainbow Road there are lights that could easily get tangled up). If you hold it up high, you'll be able to see it in the live streams. But it's not so high that you're getting in the way of others when you set it down since it's as tall as you are basically.

When we walked in, I had the telescoping part all the way down and the flag folded up so it could simply be patted by security. Much easier than having it in full-mast and them question anything.

Pro-Tip for future flagbearers:

Get yourself one of [these] (https://www.amazon.com/Flagpole-Go-20-Foot/dp/B000OWM2BE?th=1&psc=1)

and if you feel like planting it, combine it with one of these [bad boys] (https://www.amazon.com/Yosoo-Umbrella-Anchor-Holder-Fishing/dp/B077M76HWL/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1540011466&sr=8-20&keywords=flagpole+ground+spike)

Have used this set-up for multiple music festivals and is convenient to carry, easy to setup

Well you may not be able to get a cosmoline air freshener but you can get a Hoppes #9 I know its not the same but dammit it smells great too.

Best way to protect my Nikon D3400 and and extra lens in this for use at a football game?

Take two of these, cut one row off of one of them, then put them in one of these. You may want to add a little padding to top and bottom to make sure everything fits snug. It's a little large, but manageable. I've got room for the new expansion and easily two more of the same size.

If you're interested in more info, see my post here.

this may help https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Card-Deck-Box/dp/B0002TT3B6

its probably not what you are looking for, but its a start. playing cards can fit into this as well. ive seen these things at Walmart as well

Well, at least most of #3 is reusable from season to season. I'm in close to $400 on my tailgate gear, but I've put it together over several seasons. It's not too bad, you get a

• Coleman Roadtrip XLE - $125 plus tax
  
• Cosco folding table - $38 plus tax
  
• Cooler - $30-40 for something decent by coleman or rubbermaid, $50 wth wheels
  
• Flagpole - $35 plus another $30-50 for flags - it's a must so you can find your car more easily
  
• Canopy - $80, I've been using this model for 4 years now with no issues.
  
• Collapsible chairs, various utensils, canopy weights, containers, etc. that are essentially tailgate-only, maybe occasionally used for camping
  
  Now, food and beer is another story - for 5 home games and a neutral site, I'd say we average $75-100 per game on refreshments. Craft beer costs money, and I only do frozen burgers and dogs 2 game per season; I usually barbecue a pork shoulder and ribs the other 3 and just reheat them on the grill top; the ribs add up quickly, and so do sides.
  
  Next additions are some tailgate games - I'd like to build cornhole boards or maybe ladder ball, but i might need to buy a pickup to fit all this stuff. We're already to the point that I use a hitch-mounted cargo carrier on the wife's SUV since we can only put the 3rd row of seats down with 2 kids in car seats and a stroller taking up space in the trunk.

Can't remember the brand but it's some sort of led grow light from amazon. It's just to get them started. Im building a stand for that light so I can get it closer to the plants.

My preferred way to store cards is in 4-Row boxes.


Seen here:
https://www.amazon.com/BCW-Monster-Storage-Holds-trading/dp/B000K41E6K


I only keep 4 of any given card, aka a ‘playset’. So I sort the cards by card number, which just so happens to be by color. I label the front of the 4-row box and also sort by set by date. I keep all of the commons, uncommons, lands, and tokens separate from the rares and mythics., that way the more valuable stuff is in one place. Therefore, if I need a specific card, I know exactly where it is.


I keep all of my trades that are above $1 in binders, keeping standard cards separate from modern/legacy/commander. I keep all bulk rares, that are not in standard, in a box, as it usually isn’t a good idea to carry around bulk to trade.

I just got two of these and they're working really well. The plants are also turning a really pretty color.

I've read (I'll try to find where) that 6500k color temperature is great for growing succulents, but it doesn't promote flowering, you'd have to add in some with a lower color temperature, but the colored LED lights have the right colors for both growth and flowering. Some of the fancier/more expensive LED grow light even have a switch to control if you want the flowering lights on, the grow lights on, or both. Like this one.

I have a hardback notebook I use for list building and campaigns. The back cover has a pocket that fits the ability cards perfectly. I have a normal ultra pro card holder for the unit stats.

My genius storage solution is to use a 4 row card box and removing two dividers. Fits NES, SNES, and N64 cartridges perfectly (width and height for SNES and N64, width only for NES)

Flagpole To Go Portable Flagpole Hide A Pole https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000OWM2BY/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_ratfvb1QG5NK4
I'm wondering if I need to wrap it in like a foam noodle or something. It's pretty solid and this is my first EDC so not sure if they will allow it.

I personally have never used either of these, but have had my eye on them since last year. I feel they would be perfect. (There are varieties of both also, shop around)

Campsite Flagpole

Handheld (collapsible) Flagpole

Edit: Formatting

It's cheaper and free shipping from third party sellers.

Monday!

I wouldn't use Bluetooth headphones that are that cheap. I'm not really a fan of wireless headphones due to interference, charging, and that noise, but if you must, for $20 these are really not bad at all. A friend wears these to sleep. Just look out for the knockoff versions of which there are quite a few.

Ultrapro Deckboxes. I think they're the perfect size.

They look like this and come in a variety of colors. https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Card-Deck-Box/dp/B0002TT3B6

Not OP, but my $26 ones are amazing.

One neat thing i find with the standard UltraPro deck boxes is that they hold one (sleeved) expansion per box, so you can sort them quite nicely. They also come in a bunch of colours. You'd need a separate case to actually hold the deck boxes though.

1. University Customs makes pretty much all of the flags you're seeing on the subreddit lately.
   
   
2. Use something like this flag pole at your campsite.
   
   
3. Totems are sorta vague in their limitations. I used a telescoping pole similar to this, and got past security with no issue. Once inside I extended it out further so it was far above the crowd.

This one. Just a warning if you order it from Amazon. They ship it unassembled and flat so it arrives in a box that could fit a person, comfortably (not that I would recommend shipping a person in it)

$3.12 Is the closest I could find :) (It uses to have a picture, I don't know why it doesn't anymore)

Thanks for the contest! Razzleberry is my favorite pie!

These are pretty helpful for large amounts of cards.

I bought this box from Amazon and it works great for my sleeved cards.

For my first pregnancy I bought something like these for my current runners.

Worked well for me although occasionally the tongue didn't cooperate.

My group bought this last year and worked perfectly, but it was also only $30 then. We just hammered PVC in the ground to secure it.

even the cheap ones can do a better job than no blanket at all and just leaving the patient lying on the ground uncovered. also handy if it's raining. i don't know many bikers carrying umbrellas around on their bikes.

these survival blankets are awesome but take up more space.

OP is talking about a stopgap measure for his bike, and space is at a premium. while those blankets might be a gimmick in the eyes of campers and sportsmen, in this particular situation it's way way better than nothing at all. that's all I'm saying.

I have this one and it works like a charm!

http://www.amazon.com/Flagpole-Go-20-Foot-Portable/dp/B000OWM2BE?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00

bought last year and has been with me for 3 festivals now. works really well, taller than other poles, holds two flags, and collapses to fit in your car!

I have a Pelican 1170 case with 3 Dragon Shield Gaming Boxes in it, 2 ultra pro plastic deck boxes, tokens, commanders in top loaders, and a set of dice all fit snuggly, as well it is waterproof.

If you're look for some plastic baggies for cards, you can get something called "team bag". something like from ultra pro. They are also good for shipping cards.

https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Poly-Team-Bags/dp/B00095NR1K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1538678698&sr=8-5&keywords=team+bag

Making boxes is pretty easy, all you need is a showbox, some cardbox and maybe glue or a stapler for a decent low budget box. Take a shoebox and cut some cardboard stripes as long and high as the shoebox. Attach them them to the ground of the box so that you get lanes that are wide enough to keep Magic cards.

Should look like one of these:

I had binders for a while, but got really lazy about keeping it organized. Now I switched to a cardboard box and am much happier. I keep everything sorted by faction and alphabetically and can find things quickly with ease. Since my collection doesn't completely fill up the box, I also store my Lord of the Rings LCG cards in there, too.

I searched a lot for such a wallet and had luck with Chums Surfshort Wallet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003CK2EFO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_JAqSyb237S9V8

Not the slimmest you could find but it's functional and secure with two zippers and importantly it has an integral keychain and a pocket for such keys. For me it's a must since I can use one Tile to find both my keys and the wallet (and because I still struggle with clutter I search for it quite often)

I burned through 2 $100 pair of Bluetooth headphones, then I found these guys. Great headphones for the price.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009VELG4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_EIk7AbSSZVGE5

I bought this off amazon and it’s worked well for me. Good grip and bounce. Haven’t used it daily or continuously for very long periods of time so can’t say much on durability 🤷‍♂️

I'd recommend something like this.

Assuming everyone knows how to play, I second race. It's very portable. What I did with just the base set is bought deck box from my local trading card shop. You can fit all the cards into one box plus a few folded player reference sheets. For the chips you can grab any old container to bring them along.

I use this one from Amazon. Works just fine. I duct-taped it to our canopy for extra security.

NFL Houston Texans golf balls and tees set, Jeff Bagwell Houston Astros hologram card, The Spicy Food Lover's Bible book, and a card. I recommended that card because it's not intimate, and I would use it for my own estranged dad. That's about $29 before tax. :)

These ones are amazing. I buy them for everyone. They send out an email explaining how to use every detail of the headphones. Annnnd they really do stay in your ears.

https://www.amazon.com/AYL-Headphones-Cancelling-Sweatproof-Smartphones/dp/B014EGE9G6

I got a set of these, and while technology has gotten better, the sound is actually pretty money on em and they are dirt cheap.

My son bought these Bluetooth earbuds from Amazon.com and loves them.

I have these - $24.99 and I couldn't be happier. No audio lag and they stay on in the gym. The packaging was fantastic and professional, they come with a variety of bud and inner ear support sizes, the battery lasts about 7 hours on continuous use with an iPhone 6s. Charge in about 1 hour and 35 minutes.

As an alternative if you want to save a couple bucks and have a canopy this one without the base is a little cheaper and you can just zip tie it to the legs of the canopy.

I use this coupled with a tire mount. Never had any problems :)

Here is the one I have, it is held up by your car tire! Very easy setup.

I purchased a cheap BCW storage box off amazon. It arrives flat and takes about 5 minutes to set up. To help with organizing the cards, I used these dividers from BGG. I printed them on cardstock, then inserted them into sleeves.

Some pics:

The cards in the first column are all the cards from 1 core set, plus all the player cards from an additional core set. The extra scenario cards in the third column are unused. As you can see, there is still plenty of room for expansions.

I think you might be talking about team bags, but they fit closer to 20, maybe 30 cards at a time.

A few things from my wish list:

Stormtrooper Helmet $169.99

Mac Knife 4 Piece Starter Set $184.37

A Christmas Story Full Size Leg Lamp $159.99

Thanks!

I've been getting some very good use out of these: https://www.amazon.com/AYL-Bluetooth-Headphones-Cancelling-Sweatproof/dp/B014EGE9G6

You needa give it a little more sun bro and a little fertilizer wont hurt. Fuck it while your at it jump on amazon and get a little grow light. Here have a link

Honestly, I started with the big box, and I immediately got one of these:

A couple of these will do you good.

These cheap and sound just as good as every other Bluetooth I have owned.

This one. I hope its enough...

Those are the plastic bags or whatever you'd like to call them. I think the ones in the videos are a bigger size though.



This is the video on Instagram that you can see where I saw someone wrap the booster pack.

This is what I just recently bought for forest and was recommended by several people here: http://amzn.com/B000OWNMRM

It's a telescoping flagpole with stand (you drive your car over it to keep it standing). It's for the campsite which I wasn't sure if that's what you were asking.

If you're looking for a flag pole for in the forest I think a telescoping lightbulb inserter for tall ceilings could easily be converted into something more portable.

this is pretty nice:

Please don't bring your huge flags into the forest. Telescoping flag poles (like this one) are great for your campsite but leave them there.

I think you could use some of these to store your sleeved cards in. These are used with sports cards and trading cards to store multiple sleeved cards at once. Hopefully this is a solution you are looking for.

Interesting idea. I guess I will see what is costs once it launches. For now I use an Adidas Gym Bag.

I wish they still sold this: www.amzn.com/B007ED76P8

Depending on your budget, 3 of either the Pendulum structure deck, Salamangreat structure deck or Zombie structure deck (links below). The key is to get 3 of the same one so he can learn to build a semi consistent and decent deck. I would also suggest a small deck box and a pack of sleeves. If your budget isn't towards the $40 range (roughly what 3 structure decks, sleeves and a deck box would run you after tax) then I would just get 1 structure deck along with the sleeves and deck box.

Also those sleeve and deck box prices seem high to me so ideally you'd find them cheaper. Just make sure you find yugioh sized sleeves.

I would go with a bag not a backpack. Some stadiums won't allow clear backpacks.

There are a bunch of options on Amazon if you search 'Clear Stadium Bag'

Such as: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010RBSAC6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_tLf9AbSKTX4QJ

This is the one I bought: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MUBNNQT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_1Jf9AbW7B7V8C

Taylor is also selling a Reputation one you could buy online beforehand

One of these for each class: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002TT3B6

And then another 4 in different colors for each player. Store your unlocked abilities/perks in your player box, locked ones stay in the class box. You can even fit your mini box in these. Except Two-Minis, of course.

Check your local game stores, or even Walmart, first, as it will probably be a lot cheaper there.

They start as small as like 200 or something and go out to thousands.

I don't know why you are getting so many downvotes. Here is a picture of a 12x12x6 bag


It seems like you can feet a lot of stuff in that bag.

Like this:

I use these for my EDH decks, and whatever color of these for my regular sized decks..

I also found this awesome metal case with a handle on it outside my apartment's dumpster that had an old ass VHS camcorder in it. It is all foam on the inside, and there are moveable dividers so I can make perfectly sized spots for my deck boxes, dice bags, playmat, etc... I look like a tool, but whatevs.. it beats carring a stack of carboard boxes, or stuffing everything into a backpack.

If you buy elite, make sure to also get a pack of these.

I've been using these for a bit over a year and I think they're great. They stay in my ear while lifting and running and the battery lasts around 10 hours between charges.

You are looking for Ultra Pro Team Bags . I just bought some recently. I haven't drafted with them yet so I can't say if they work well or not. I put a token at the front of each pack so you can't see what the first card is.

I pre-make my packs, it is totally worth it, it speeds up the draft a lot. It gives you the option of doing some construction (like putting 2 of each color in each pack, or a land in every pack, or whatever). It takes a little bit of time, but I just do it while watching TV, it doesn't take a lot of mental power to do.

Well, I use these and fill in the gaps with deck boxes and similarly sized/shaped objects so cards don't fall over or move around too much.
Edit: Oh, and I have about ten of these boxes. I really ought to finish sorting and sell off a lot of my bulk. Nobody needs 32+ copies of Fossil Grimer.

neverflat last a long ass time but can feel weird and rubbery after a while. My favorite is the street ball. Cheap and holds grip for a long time. You can also get the wave which has lines dug into it and long lasting grip.

Found this one on amazon for $19 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000OWM2BY/ref=psdcmw_13923601_t3_B000OWKENC. Collapsible too!

OP, what creedfeed said was, "I bought this box from Amazon and it works great for my sleeved cards." Here's the link using a standard URL, no shorteners:

always start close by the hoop to work on your form once you enter the park, shooting at the hashmarks around the FT line helped me gain more consistency and I instantly felt more confident shooting long range, i continue to do this once I get to the park. once you do that, shoot a lot of mid-range jumpers then start at the corner or straightaway for threes. just remember to always start real close to the hoop once you enter the park or gym. I also needed an adjustment period when I went from inside to outside, it could be a mental thing. I also always end my sessions with 3-5 straight free throw makes and that always helped me.

for a ball, i've always liked this one https://www.amazon.com/Spalding-Parent-63-249-parent-NBA-Street-Basketball-x/dp/B0009VELG4?th=1 but i know some people don't. It's generally good and has lasted me about a year and a half so far, I might get another one because the one I have now is starting to lose grip.

They were slightly cheaper when I bought them and they are sold under many brand names on Amazon, so they likely are still available at the $20 I paid.

The term you want to Google is "card deck box." You'll see plenty of options for boxes which hold fewer and more cards to meet your needs.

Basic example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002TT3B6

I used a reflective survival tarp under my sleeping bag while hammock camping and ended up soaking wet. I was warm the whole night, but that tarp didn't allow any evaporation.

You can probably find them for cheaper at your local game store.

After thinking about it, I guess you could organize the hops by using some long, slender containers in the freezer then put labels between each variety. Hmm... now I'm thinking...\
