Trying to resist

I'm the worst when it comes to having unopened packs of cards around. I have very little willpower and even when I want to wait, I end up ripping the packs before I realize what I'm doing.

I picked up this 2011 Topps Chrome Value Pack as a possible prize for the January contest. That depends on the winner and if he or she wants it. This pack was marked down nearly $3 from the normal price. I thought was funny considering it was right next to a 2010 Topps Chrome Football pack that was still full price.

So here I sit, trying to resist the temptation to rip it! Everyone who answers the following question gets a bonus entry in this month's contest: If you win, would you like this value pack as part of your prize? I'm closing the contest tonight of you haven't entered yet. The winner will be posted in the morning.

Good luck!

    UMMM...hell yezzzzz! I believe that if no one sees you open a pack, then it never happened. Kind of like eating, if no one saw it, the calories dont count...enjoy your McD's and Chrome.

    Yes, but just the value pack would be a good enough prize.

    I'll say no, I think you should have opened it in the car. Taking it all the way home is an excellent show of willpower, so you should rip it now.

    I haven't opened any Chrome this year, so heck yeah! But I don't know how you'll be able to refrain from ripping. Impossible in my hands.
