Check out this Beverage of Choice!



Just Kidding... just showing off my new home theatre I just finished setting up, still need to paint the wall and hide wires...

And now for the real crap...

1. Sony Universal Remote
2. Pleather Bag
3. AT&T Olympic Sponsor Polo Shirt (Large)
4. 256MB MP3 player / FM Radio / Voice Recorder!! (very pleased with this one)







Not bad at all, shirt is pretty nice too - this may have actually been worth 1.5 hrs. of clicking and the whole early onset of carpel tunnel syndrome :)



nice crap, what kind of tv is that?

WOO-HOO WOOT!
Second Beverage of Choice did good!


  • -Pleather bag sans shoulder strap (the guy who got 20 musta got mine)
  • -Sony refurb remote (will give to neighbor)
  • -FIVE HP dvd+r 8x discs (time to transfer Threshold and Invasion over!)
  • AND
  • -a brand spankin' now heavy duty black handled tool bench 16 ounce claw hammer.



Only problem is the hammer has a label that says:

    WARNING! this product contains lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Hummm...wonder if that means I have to wash the keyboard and mouse now too?


Great WOOT, Woot!
Thanks!

I don't remember there being quite so many innumerate people posting in past Bowl Of Cherries discussions - i.e., counting the bag and then expressing surprise at reaching four...

Anyone got any statistics?




...no, really, just any statistics - nobody cares if they're relevant.

Fed Ex now says:

"Delivery exception /// Future delivery requested "

I called and they said that they don't know what this notation means (!) and when I emphasized that *I* did not request future delivery, they just reiterated that they don't know what it means. They initiated a trace on the package but because it is fedex ground they will not have an answer until tomorrow, nor will they let me pick it up from their central office today.

They did confirm that the package is NOT a signature required box, so now everybody is confused and nobody knows nuttin'!

Got MyFirst Beverage of Choice.



  • 1x Fake leather Bag... I'll find a use for it. (Broken, one clip is missing it's clipping function)
  • 1x Sony EZ Remote Commander (simplified remote)
  • 2x HP DVD+R (No RW or +/-)
  • 1x Bezel-less HP DVD(CD)+/-RW Burner (woohoo, but where is the bezel?)
  • 1x THE GRAND PRIZE! Package of 2 Squirt guns made in China by 21 Century (One is broken)


Some great crap here. Happy with the writable media and the writer (sort of...Where did my bezel go, Woot!?!?). I'm disappointed that so much of my crap is broken, but what am I to expect for 8 dollars worth of crap and an 1hr of my time (according to Federal laws this is only worth $5.15, for some reason).

I guess llrpurch's woot deathhammer was used on my Beverage of Choice before shipment.... :\

Any chance I can get a bezel, Woot?

it makes me terribly sad how some lucky people got tvs *wink wink*, dvd burners and mp3 players and I'm stuck with a one-of-a-kind TX hold'er table cloth..

I guess I am gald that I didn't get squirt guns and jap toys though.. (no offense)
and I guess I can say I won a first prize b/c I haven't seen anybody reported of getting a table cloht!!

Got my Beverage of Choice when I got home from work.

1 faux (i think, it actually smells like real leather) bag in perfect condition, strap, clips and all
1 500 piece jigsaw puzzle
1 Sony remote that I actually need after just breaking one
and 1 red hat with hidden pouch under the brim

Definitely worth $8. I would have paid $8.50 even.

Tell us more!



well, okay ... fine, so no one else cares. Tell me more.

By the way - back in the '60s, the card game was known as "Hold Me" or "Hold Me, Darlin'" so "Hold'er" just isn't all that far off. And might be hilarious.

what, Me, sig?

get my trash today:

1, fake leather bag.( clip broken when I first time want to open it, I don't know where can I put it? real crap!!)
2, refurbished sony remote control ( looks really cheaper than the Free After Rebate stuff in officemax or compusa).
3, plastic toy ( give it to others)
4, low quality microfiber duster cloth ( This is the only thing I got useful..$8 duster cloth to clean my PC screen!!!!!!!!!!! I hope it help me flee away from trash next time!).

What can I say? If you buy only one, you just pay $6 and lost fewer than me. I am very stupid to buy three, but get the same trash with others only buy 1.

At least, woot should make the difference between 1 bag and 3 bags.

Anyway, I bet but I lost. Congra to those who win!

Okay, just for fun. This is from my friend Eri who can read Japanese.

it says "bakuten hennkei series" meaning "explosive flipping shape-changing series" if you translate it literally. on the bottom it sais the name, "bakuten ryu zinrai" meaning explosive flipping dragon Zinrai".

I guess beyblades (bay blades?) were super popular in Japan a few years ago. Now I just need someone to fight mine against....

Does anybody's refurb Sony remote actually work?? Mine doesn't seem to want to work at all. Not that is surprises me..just wondering. LOL

btw, I just wish everyone would remember that all this crap is indeed CRAP! It's stuff that's been sitting around their warehouse BECAUSE it's broken.. refurb'd... or just plain too stupid to try to sell on it's own merit!! LOL

My hat's off to the person who came up with the incredibly brilliant idea of having 4-5000 people on the planet actually PAY to get it any of it!!! And fight, cry, scratch, complain and lose sleep over it to boot!! LOL!! Just brilliant!

I love this place... best middle-of-the-night entertainment you could ask for! Bring on the WOOT! :D

My Beverage of Choice:

Laptop bag type thing
Refurb remote
Five DVD+rw
Doorstop. No, not some crappy item to be employed as a doorstop, but the actual brown rubber wedge shaped thing. I think I'm the brunt of some sort of postmodern joke.

Damn, if only I'd gotten the squirt gun, mp3 player, and the d-o-u-c-h-e, then my Christmas shopping would be done for this year.

Edit -- that was originally auto-transliterated as "pineapple". Woot is really perverse.

It does seem like whether you order 1 or 3, you will still get the same amount of crap like everyone else.

I'd guess its easier for the warehouse people to just dump a bunch of stuff into a box instead of actually seeing how many a person did order.

Looks like you might even have a better chance of scoring the jackpot by just getting 1 crap.

So ordering 1 & saving 2 bucks might be better off the next time this comes around.
