i love the visuals smokeriderdon

can anyone confirm that GARDA rolls looks like black /white with no other writing other than $10 HALVES on the roll? I have been getting skunked pretty bad with them.
AND something else. last week I did not receive the usal short stack box, I received the LONG box, yellow trim. I thought it was String n Sons. but again, not markings on the box of wrappers other than $500 halves.. and the rolls were white with dark drown trim.. anyone else comfirm that these are GARDA or something else?

SD, thanks. I have received the long flat boxes as well with either the white and brown or white and yellow wrappers. We get the white and yellows when we order from Capital one, and the white and browns when we order from BB&T. Not sure of the rolling coompany though.

The wife is picking up two more boxes from the same bank as the two yesterday. They were ordered at the same time, so perhaps we will get that lucky again.

Four boxes today
Three boxes total skunk
Fourth box...11 90%, 1 40%, 1 impaired 86 proof, 2 NIFC

Been having a lucky run on 90%ers but am worried, I am seeing the frequency of skunk boxes increasing. Good luck all til the next batch.

Does anyone simply weigh their rolls to see which ones have silver in them instead of opening the rolls?

rskula, one of the branches here where I live in Northern VA.

OK, so we got those ther two boxes. OMG...

46 40%, 4 64s, 4 Frankies and a Walker! On top of that 16 full rolls of 85 BUs, a roll and a half of 86 BUs, about 3/4 roll of 83 and 84 BUs, 1/2 rol of 81 AU-BU and other assorted AU and up. I sorted through and only kept 2 rolls of the 85s as I had 2 rolls from yesterday. So I need to tell them to order 4 boxes for next week again and see if it keeps up.

Smokeriderdon - Great finds! I can't wait to get a box like that, it has been some time.

I'm getting 4 boxes later and hoping to find something good, last week 4 were all skunks. Happy searching to all.

But hey guys, on a positive note I am at a $12,000 SKUNK STREAK! That should help everyone else's chances since I'm not taking any silver

a 24 box skunk streak? Wow, I can deal with skunk boxes, but if I even got a 15 box skunk streak, I think it would make me take a long break. or at least change my source of boxes.
