dont you have the taxsucks thingi ?

*You* know it's an April fools thing... and *I* know it's an April fools thing... but if (for whatever technical reason) the site ended up actually charging me $1,000,001 for it, somehow I don't think the good folks over at Visa's collection office are gonna just say "oh, it was just an April fool's misunderstanding, so there's no problem and you don't owe us the interest on that $1,000,001 charge".

first woot was negative 11 minutes... someone went back in time they were so fast.

Actually, you'd need to borrow 6, to also cover the shipping

What happened last year? Same thing? Will a new woot be put up, sometime tonight?

I didnt use paypal, I tried 3x and it still shows available. you suck...
your order is NOT in.
possible problems with your order:

Order denied.
Whoops! Lucky for you that we just ran out of room in our money vault, so we can't take your million dollars.
But if you have that kind of money to throw after garbage like this, email jtoon@woot.com.
We can work something out...
Billing address does not match.
Credit card security number does not match.



Also, if you were using PayPal, it may be one of the following issues:

If your PayPal account is empty, and backed by a bank account rather than a credit card, it won't work. At this time, we don't accept eChecks, due to the 3-5 day delay prior to confirmation. You can either put money directly into your PayPal account, change your account to be backed by a credit

what kind of joke is this?

i WAS JUST thinking they don't have these on regular woots anymore and up it comes. I better get on or this is just plain mean!!! Mean woot! Bad bag bad bad!

they must be kidding. . .

OMG - I almost peed my pants I laughed so hard. I was SO excited, I hit buy and then, thankfully, looked at the price and thought, "What the hell!" I should have known better than for a Blinged-Out Cabbage to be available at two minutes after twelve. lol

One of these days I will get a Blinged-Out Cabbage! I almost cried at work the other day when I went to the copier and came back and had missed it that fast.

i tried to buy one just for giggles, the error says something like "sorry, we just ran out of room in our money vault, and cannot take your million dollars"

I'm pretty sure that they didn't try to charge my credit card ;)

lmao! this was a good joke I gotta admit

and I was like damn I finally can get a Bandolier of Carrots... =|

oh well always next time

who are those guys ?

I'm tempted to try and buy it and see what happens

this woot is gay i hate life because of this woot I'm weeping with joy!! what a waste

I was hoping it would still let you buy the bag o' crap and just actually charge your card a reasonable amount like $4 ... damn.

I guess they're taking the day off? My hats off to them, but why waste a woot entirely?

Hello 1,000,000.

forgot it was 1 April! lol - I actually had a bit of money in the bank account this weekend and stayed up thinking "maybe I'll actually buy a woot this time". don't have that much!! I hope somebody buys one, that'd make for some great PR

Someone bought one?

Damn you woot! It's like the Bandolier of Carrots is just sitting there mocking me.

I think they should have done the pig or something, would have been funnier and at least something you could purchase.

I wonder how many Wooter's went for this only to have their credit card provider decline it, then flag their accounts with a fraud alert. Now THAT is FUNNY!!!

Now, after recovering from almost having a heart attack and 'almost' scoring one (denied, hehe), I think it's pretty funny. I hope that many others when they open a web page and not sold out experience that same 'almost' heart attack....Nicely done, Monsieur Woot

Guess no one else has a Centurion Black AmEx card?

I'm willing to bet that it is woot's old warehose!

HA! I'd totally do it...if only I have that much credit

Yeah, but they are Refurbs!

Just found it is illegal to steal your children's organs for money. Maybe slavery will bring me the $1,000,000 I need for the woot.

Yeah I love AFD but, I'm trying for it. I figure they will charge a buck and really send a bag or they'll blow me off. Worth a shot.

hahah tried to buy one for the hell of it. figured if it charged the tyical 1 dollar it be worth it, if it really did charge the million...i dont have a credit line that high so it would get rejected anyways lol

I work for a living. I decided to stay up and check woot because I miss out on alot of stuff having to wait until 10-11 am before I can check. Thanks woot...I miss out on sleep for a joke. No thanks.

April fool!

love it!

c.card bounced

Easy way for them to take a day off...

Why not just buy it, it's not like they can get a million off my card if they are not joking.

Ok guys, I hate to break it to you, but they're not actually charging the credit cards. Everyone is getting a declined message.

By which I mean, they are not actually submitting the charges. You could use an Amex Black card which has no limit and it still would be declined. Because they are not allowing any sales.

Is this for Paris Hiltons impounded car? Does it come with Paris and (2) of her friends>? Might go for it if it means she has to do all her community service cleaning my house for the next month, and wear one of those really sexy ankle bracelets.

hmmmm.

FIVE DOLLARS shipping? Forget it.

you just reminded me about April fool`s........................now i have to play a million jokes ...just to get even..
