Hey SC - what is the break even point for you on boxes? I know you have additional expenses for dumps and supplies.

Re: today's 4 loomis boxes

I felt pretty good last week with my 1 lonely Loomis box, 22 40% and 5 90% halves. Have never got that many all at once in the past year and a half. Up till this box, I was pretty accustomed to skunk boxes, if I got one 40% that was it. I did switch banks about 4 weeks ago and now with Loomis, prior was Wells Fargo.

Re: today's 4 loomis boxes

You still got a few to add to the pile. The 64' is always nice. I am picking up 4 boxes today (well, in about 10 minutes).
Pickins' have been slow here as well. My last 8 boxes were comparable to your 4 this week.

HSH (and may silver pick up for all of us).

it cost me 3.00 per 1K bag to dump and 0.75 per bag for supplies. so today it cost me a total of 7.50 to dump today.

Re: today's 4 loomis boxes

About $2 a box. Not bad - just look at it like it cost one 40% per box for the house to play each hand. Not so good when you are pulling 20 straight skunks but at 4 to 8 boxes a week seems doable and one decent box makes it nice. I'd stay with the smaller numbers for a while. Remember it is almost time for some Christmas silver to appear! :icon_thumright:
