Not as good a garage sale box

 Another week, dropped another $20 at a garage sale. This purchase wasn't nearly as good, maybe it'll make me less interested in going for a while. Bought one box, several hundred cards that turned out to be predominantly junk wax commons.

Lots of junk wax (and slightly earlier). Maybe the Donrusses will have some useful dot/no dot variations. 

Some less junky wax, highlighted by an unlicensed Griffey and a Finest promo of Mark McGwire.
A small smattering of vintage, nothing that I needed but some decent names, especially the '75 Carlton.
Always nice to get some BBC Magazine panels!
Lots of football which will go into my collection. I still need most junk wax football cards so I don't mind passively adding them to my collection like this.
A smattering of other sports, mostly hockey. I've never seen so many boxing cards at once. They're '91 Kayo cards, hopefully I can find someone who can use them. Hopefully someone can use the random hockey and hoops, too.
Lots of cards were in cut-up nine-pocket pages. If nothing else the pages will be useful for PWEs. 
Some unopened packs. I have to check if I still need any '89 Score Magic Motion cards; if I don't I'll leave the pack unopened. The yearbook stickers I still need most of for my yearbook, and maybe I'll find the one stickerback card I need, #1 George Brett.
