The 1/4W resistor packs weren't that bad. I still have some of the more
uncommon values from those in my cabinets. The electrolytic capacitor
packs were also pretty good for bread boarding / general experimentation.
I never was too crazy about the ceramic capacitor assortment packs though.
They never seemed to contain much in the way of useful values. The LED
packs were also a lot of fun. Where else could you pay $1.50-$2.00 for a
pile of weird looking and one of a kind leds? :)

Assortment packages, I remember. I still have some very odd rating 78xx
and 79xx voltage regulators as well as lots of oddball zeners.
