Blade sampling

A quick question about blade sampling. I picked up a few five packs of different blades as a sort of DIY sampler. I'm not sure if I should use a blade from pack #1, then a blade from pack #2, etc. or if I should use up all five blades before moving to the next pack. Thoughts?
 
I'm the opposite. I prefer to use at least two or three, if not all five, before switching. That way, if the first I use happens to be a dud (admittedly, it is rare), the second and third should give me a clearer picture of its quality. And I'm OCD enough that I just like to finish a pack before moving on.
 
I prefer using more of a pack before changing brands. I think it gives me a better idea of how the blade performs before I switch over.
