2 Repacks from Target
I highly recommend the $20 Repacks ... They have mostly good packs and a guaranteed hit per box.
I bought 2 the past week and got a ton of 2014 & 2013 Heritage. Got a bunch of SP's that I needed and the hits weren't bad either.
The Crawford is /50. Not bad. There were no other cards 'big' cards, but they're not filled with 90s junk ... The 'worst' that was there was Opening Day ... But I like that product
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

RE: 2 Repacks from Target
I've noticed more and more of the repacks are just using the past 1-3 years products that are typically retail packs that were probably picked over and never sold. I usually look for some that I can see have packs of something that I am either working on the set or have hits that aren't easy for pack searchers to find (like on-card autos or high value singles like 2011 Topps Update and some other 2011 products with Trout).

RE: 2 Repacks from Target
I've gotten a few of those from Target too. 20 packs + a "hit" for $20 isn't a bad deal. One of them that I bought last week had a Harper 2013 Topps Rookie Card Manufactured Patch that booked for $25. Half the box in the few that I bought is usually 2013 Topps Series 2, but one of them I got a few weeks back had like 5 packs of Topps Chrome and most have 4-5 packs of Bowman Platinum. Each one I bought also have had 1 pack of 2008 UD Spectrum and 2 out of the 3 that I bought had a jersey in the Spectrum pack. It's a pretty safe play for just $20.

Last time I busted one of those I got 6 cards over 8.00 in bv, nothing mind blowing but it's nice to get a decent return from a product for a change!

LOL
here's what the box looks like (minus the packs)
Like someone said, a nice value. Nothing earth shattering, but you get a chance at some good stuff now and again.

comparing it to what i do, how would you rate it value-wise?
