Series two the money isn't as good and no coupons. Kinzstyle shopping bag is awesome. I love the garden game theme. Not as many rare pieces but you get ancient theme in it. It only took about 3 boxes of series 2 to unlock all the prizes. I gave up unlocking with series one. I got the first three prizes and can't get the last two.

i have been having brain freeze lately and have to really check to see if it is 4 or 5 boxes i
have purchased of series 2..... but within the first 3 i unlocked all of the prizes on my main account
and then started using the virtual codes on my potm account. i had finished my 5th box (i think it is) lol, and today when my daughter and i were out doing our weekly outing, we stopped at two differetn stores. one sotre i purchased 3 series 2 packs (oh the addiction) and the at the
second store i purchased 2 pakcs series 1, and 2 packes series 2. in the series two cards i got
8 codes... and in the series one cards, i got 2 codes.

but i opened the virtual cards and low and behold, i unlocked the tc2 series again on the potm
account. so i have finished it 2x. i hope this gives you some incentive.
it took a lot of boxes on series 1--- though i did finally complete it just before the series 2 came out. i was exhausted, and the pocketbook was a LOT LIGHTER. i did like the series one for the coupons. that is one thing i miss.
with tc2 i bought today, i got 2 gamers shubbery dressers, 1 tc lamp, 1 tc side table, one with receipe foods, a few w-shop items, and something else...brain freeze again.

Lucky! I've already gone through 3 boxes plus singles for Series 2 and I'm still trying to unlock the last category.

After reading about the Series 1 cards I'm not even going to attempt to try finishing it because I can't possibly afford it. I do however like the code prizes better for the Series 1.

i like the prizes, i think, fairly evenly. i did like the coupons in series 1, but the outfits were
sometimes horrible. once i finished collecting all of the checkmate theme, and the tc theme, in series 1 i started sending the duplicates to the grandkids and helped them complete those themes on their accounts.

i love the posters in series two way better than the ones in series one. and as far as the
the w-shop items go>>>>> well if i am not impresses with them, i sell them for the
precious kc. i bought quite a few wigs and gladiator helmets from the curio shop, so
those i sell back wwhen i get them from a card..

[MNcheerTwins]

I do the same thing. I get a lot of duplicates that I just sell back. Thank goodness for that option otherwise where would I put them all?

yeah..... a ton of rooms with all of it buried.....

that wonderful sell button is such a godsend.

[AuntMary57]

Where to put it all?

Weeeeeellllllll, take some of that KC you get from the codes, buy a big room, slap everything in it that it will hold and call it "Storage Room"* in anticipation of the day one no longer lives in Webkinz subsidized housing!

....or at least that's what I did.

* Tried to call it "Warehouse" and perhaps I stuttered because they told me "that word is not allowed". Perhaps they thought I was really trying to start rolling in the KinzCash...

TOPIC (or more like, where this topic has veered lately!):

My purely scientific study shows that Virtual Trading Cards Series I break down to 85% base cards, 11% Challenge, 3% Curio Shop and 1% Doodlez. Can't admit to how many real-life packs that entails, but let's just say it's a pretty good scientific sampling of over three boxes...

Finally unlocked the base set, need one more Challenge (although I have duplicates of 11...11!!! of one Challenge card), need 2 Curios (with 4 of one card I have), and forget the Doodlez, I only have three (and dupe of one of those!).

OK. Got to go do my gardening...Ganz nearly upset the economy of the entire Eastern US this morning by coming up so late...

Oh! I like the Classic Gaming Theme and the W-Mart Coupons in Series I, but really "dig" the Gamer's Garden in II! Seems like I got a ton of topiaries at first (except for the "Hearts" and that one took a while), but now I'm down to wanting the bed, dresser, etc and I've gotten nothing but side tables!

Not that there's anthing wrong with side tables, but still...)

After buying my first 3 packs of cards (TC1), I was reinforced BIG TIME by getting a virtual pet, a gamer's bed, and the opus sofa. I then began to buy cards like a sugar deprieved dieter set loose in a twinkie factory. After 2 mos. and $150 poorer, I realized that I would always be 1-2 cards from the whole set. Now I only buy the cards - not to complete the virtual set (so much...it is still a secret wish) but to possibly get certain items.:wt:

I feel ya, girlfriend!

I bought a couple of packs "for the nieces" and then....and then...

...opened a few packs myself, ya know, "just to see".

My shame is evident here for all to see...

...Psyche! I have no shame! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Twinkies? Girl, I see your Twinkies and raise you an old school Krispy Kreme shop (half mile from my house) with the "Hot Donuts Now" sign on!

Just watch out for the cops. They tend to descend on it with lights flashing and sirens blaring. i've actually seen them go airborne over a small rise...

Lil Dawg and 1Mama, welcome in and...
...here have a donut. They're fresh...

[LittleDog]

Aunt Mary and 1 MamaWebkin, It is soooo embarrassing to admit it, but I to hope for red lights so that I may "just glance" at a pack.....
