YOU GUYS LIKE SLEEPING BAGS HUH?

If only I could vote for the middle three.

After all the thousands of tablets offered in the last few Woot-Offs, and I didn't get another shot at that 32GB HP Touchpad? For shame, sir, for shame.

I did walk away with some goodies, but I am somewhat disturbed by the intentional listing of the Bunnies Ogling Carrots offers during my driving times. I find this complete disregard for highway safety as just another example of our society's crumbling moral fiber. Woot's blatant encouragement of internet phone surfing whilst interstate car swerving is reprehensible! Since I didn't get a Bunnies Ogling Carrots I'll be reporting Woot to the BBB, FAA, IRS, FCC, FBI, CIa, NCIS, BBC and any other government abbreviation I can think of....unless you send me a Bunnies Ogling Carrots with a Touchpad inside.

Ball's in your court WOOT!!!!

Indeed

I was SO CLOSE to a Bunnies Ogling Carrots and yet SO FAR. I wonder if my steadily growing Woot obsession is perhaps misguided.

I saw the bags of crap twice and couldn't get an order to go through either time. Needless to say, I was very disappointed.

I didn't see anything else in the woot off that I couldn't live without.

I very much enjoyed the extra-long woot-off. Didn't get anything; didn't vote but it was cool.

Got the only thing I wanted: Monkeys!

The quality of the offering has somewhat deminished. There has always been something of interest. But this last woot-off had nothing. It has become aromatic. I checked the blog of each site and found nothing, Nothing, I would've bought. This has never happened before. I'm disappointed.

The Woot Offs are getting a little old.
It seems the same items keep coming back over and over.
How can you sell out of something (like a ROKU) Then its back for sale latter?
How about once a item sells out on the WOOT OFF it NEVER shows up again?

Looked to be a good WootOff but just did not see anything I "had" to have and I did not spend as much time as I usually do. Think Woot made a real effort to improve things this time around and did, so bravo for that.
Please go back to the "old" style monkeys even if you have to charge a little more.See ya next time around, I still have plenty of money.

It seems now we have:

Less technology, more vacuums.
No tablets, lots of sleeping bags.
Less quirky stuff, more mainstream leftovers.
Fewer insightful comments, more "Next".

I suppose it was inevitable with the rise of Amazon. But still, I miss the old days.

Please stop, I'm bored...Please stop, I'm bored...

Usually get several things... had to convince myself to get stocking stuffers this time. Just one purchase, so it was full of Meh. Didn't try terribly hard for the Bunnies Ogling Carrots even though my chances improve with their new method. Today's offerings mostly suck, too.

heh heh... you see what I did there...

I remember when Woot Offs were short (not DAYS long), rare between, sweet, marked DOWN (as in LESS MONEY) prices for items that hadn't sold previously.

Not to mention a good toaster - or 5

I am actually sad when woot offs end.. they help keep me occupied at work, especially during my day shifts!!! ..Time to wait til next month!!!!!!!

During this woot off I scored:
.5 Woot T's during the T-shirt sale.
.1 Barrel of Crops (2 if you count the one my wife got!)
.3 Screaming Woot Pirate Monkies!!!!

Still a couple things I wanted but missed out on due to sleep. Thanks again woot for the last fun filled 72 hours!!!

Tried for all of the Bunnies Ogling Carrots, but missed every time. Got some goodies including a reckoned T (Bazinga!) and a pirate monkey (which will become a part of my pirate wench costume hereafter). Resisted the urge to buy more Fleur de Sel Caramels (Oh My Fruitful Garden those things are scrumptious!). Spent money I shouldn't have spent on (gasp!) other sites as the result of the adrenaline rush of the WootOff. Found the chat room (late) and enjoyed the exchange with other Wootaholics briefly (in those brief moments when I wasn't accidently logging out of it). Overall, considering what was going on in my real world, this WootOff was a welcome and delightful break from reality.

EDIT: What? You mean this WAS reality? I'll actually get BILLED for those things?! Argh!!! (I should have bought the caramels, after all.)

What he said. Seriously, we want gadgets and gizmo's, not vacuums and batter mixers.

The one thing that I found that I was willing to buy was sold out...

My crappy internet provider went wonky and I lost connection when I actually TRIED to buy something, and it was sold out a few minutes later when my internet came back up. Then, I got back to my computer after 5 or so minutes away to find the Bunnies Ogling Carrots had JUST sold out. I've been trying to get a Bunnies Ogling Carrots since 2007.... WHEN WILL IT HAPPEN??!?!?! Ugh, sorry...just frustrated. I came REALLY close last time, I think - at least it sure looked like I was close sine it got as far as processing my order before it told me it was sold out. *sigh*

I liked the 500 blips of the Bunnies Ogling Carrots It gives you a chance to get it if the boss is making you work at work.

The woot-off(s) were great! I want more of them.

As for the bags of crap, I want one (or two) but being an old fart, I didn't grow up computer gaming so I am at a distinct disadvantage to all you young pipsqueaks who did. How 'bout giving us old farts a chance at some of those awesome bags of crap? Let's level the playing field and have it be more random!

I saw the bags of crap twice and couldn't get an order to go through either time. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. I have been trying to get one for years now. this time everytime i clicked i want one the page just refreshed.

Love the woot-offs and love that Woot has started giving multiple chances to score a Bunnies Ogling Carrots It seems they sell out in the same amount of time s before minus the server crashing.

I came in and out a buncha times ... a couple of times I missed out on wine because the seller was listed as not shipping to our state - and then the same seller posted another wine item and WAS listed ... or they were listed as not selling here, and then it changed, but it was too late ...

So some annoyances.

I don't bother with the coveted Boils Of Corruption, so that's all good ...

Mostly in it for the wine - and made a few good purchases, I think.

Sometimes I'm puzzled by what people expect from the Woot-Offs ... and by the intensity of feeling about them, ya know? It's just stuff to buy, right? Sleep deprivation? Skipping meals? Neglecting work? Doesn't add up to me.

It's fun to check in now and then, and sometimes order something good.

I missed the Barrel of Crops.

Crap.

Clever Woot, clever.

Suddenly, he sees clearly ...

As usual, the things I would have bought either sold out too quickly or were presented when I was not actively wooting. I'm not complaining, it's just unfortunate timing. I appreciate the multiple Bunnies Ogling Carrots opportunities and with a few exceptions I felt the assortment of items was interesting.

One suggestion: Just to mix things up for crapaddicts, offer BsOC on the other sites that are wooting off.

I didn't get the Bunnies Ogling Carrots but I do like the idea of offering a few at a time. Of course, I missed every opportunity by a few minutes, but it makes it a lot more fun.

I agree with several of the above comments.

The repetitive offerings are wearing on me. I really only checked about 4-5 times each day, because it felt like every time I checked, it was a repeat or something I could not care less about. It's even worse when the repeats cost the same as the last time they were offered - I expect the woot-off to have the leftover items from previous woots, but offer them at a lower price.

I remember when you could be confident that the woot price was an amazing deal that you couldn't find anywhere else. Now, you are wise to price check before hitting that ridiculously large yellow button.

Lest someone say I can't judge because I didn't sit there holding my breath all three days: I checked the blogs when I'd been away for a while, so I saw every thing that got offered... the only things I would have bought were out of my price range. (ie, I'm technically "in the market" for a vacuum, a new desktop for my stepkids, and an ipod touch, but don't have enough cash for any of those things, even on sale, due to the washing machine AND microwave both dying last week.)

Agreed

Maybe I have a terrible memory, but I don't remember there ever being insightful comments during a wootoff...

While there were a couple things I could have gone for, there was nothing I had to have.

I liked the multiple Bunnies Ogling Carrots, but unfortunately a credit card error kept me from getting one.

All in all, not last place.

Watched it off & on with casual discontent -- unable to score a Bunnies Ogling Carrots on the few times I caught it. Wondering if there's a distinct disadvantage when using mobile devices v. laptop or desktop?

Bought one item on Kids.Woot -- not overly overwhelmed by anything else ..... Kinda sad ....

Some time ago I bought a ZEBRA KNIFE set. They are the best knives! They take an edge and keep it.
I am only writing because I didn't order the other design (Leopard, I think). This is more a suggestion than a complaint.

More LEOPARDS, please.

Last choice for me. I actually caught a Bunnies Ogling Carrots on the first large sale, then spent the rest of my Woot! time trying to help my wife snag one (failed or flat missed it every time, twice because my dog was producing a coincidental crap and I was the one waiting with the sack).

The downer for me was that unlike most Woot-Offs I didn't buy anything else. There were a couple of items but they were either so low volume that they sold out before I could, or they were on off-time (unlike the young whippersnappers I don't stay up all hours)

And to be honest I kinda preferred the previous method of presenting Bunnies Ogling Carrots. One big batch.

P.S. more pigs please; I'd like to get the flappy winged ones I missed before. I am enjoined by spousal decree from purchasing any more primates, but swine have not been proscribed...

I'm all for the new system for the bag, especially when it screws over the people with their external programs and 20+ bags
It also reduces the server load as far as I can tell, mine went through in seconds as opposed to loading a blank screen for several minutes

Anything that makes it harder to get for bot users is fine by me

As for the actual content, I don't have enough disposable income at the moment to buy $800 cameras

3 days and 6 Bunnies Ogling Carrots How will Woot ever top this one?

You done good, woot. You done good.
