The other day at Walgreens, I saw these jumbo Bike cards.
They're priced at $10.00, But were on sale for $7, made in China

Has anyone used these before? What's your thoughts?

I have both types and I even acquired some 1-way forcing decks in the new style.

The new decks don't seem too impressive if you are used to the older decks but they are certainly useable.

They have enough slip to allow for Elmsley Counts and decent table spreading. If you have never used the older Bicycle deck, you won't be disappointed.

The older deck was much thicker, but it was also made in China.

The new decks are slightly easier to handle if you have smaller hands since the deck is not as thick.
