Or maybe people that get really bad crap just aren't so gung ho about telling us about it... epic lulz!

I just called my wife and a box of crap is home waiting for me. Just 2 more hours till I get off of work.

So I was at my desk, reading through everyone else's BOCs, pining for the day I would finally receive my first... It came!

Mine arrived Saturday but my girlfriend's is STILL in transit. I keep telling her she's going to be the last person in America to get their Bandolier of Carrots!

Mine still doesn't even show up as a valid tracking number (I got the "your item has shipped" email 9 days ago). I sent woot an email and they said they would be getting it out soon....

1 x Red "Made in China" Backpack
1 x Green Woot! T-Shirt

Got my craps! Yay!

The Bag:
One black/red back pack (kids and wife were thrilled)

The Craps:
One Snake Eyes Action Figure
One Delphi Green Lighted USB Cable
One 'Duct Tape Man' size M T-Shirt (slight, very slight blemish on the T in Tape)

Not bad. With that said I'd be willing to trade any of the the above said 'craps' if anyone is interested. The t-shirt is too small (I'd need a XL or XXL). I also have a Leak Frog lying around from a previous 'WootOff' that I bought on a whim with no place to use him. Send me a pm and let me know what ya would want to do!

Yay Woot!

Mine was sitting in my office chair at work when I arrived this morning!

-Obligatory red/black Chinese backpack
-Obligatory green Woot shirt (Woot logo on butt)
-"Scare 'em grabber" toy. Package says, "Reach out tongs...they pick things up too!" There is a Frankenstein face that connects to the tong things so you can scare your friends. ;-)
-A LobeMan FM radio. Looks used. Came with three extra covers so you can change its color. :-) This is the one:

http://www.lobeman.com/aboutlobeman/fmradio.asp

I'm a little afraid to put it in my ear for fear of where it's been!

Thanks Woot!

My crap is sitting at my apartment.. and I have to work late! Its killing me to have 2 more hours to wait.. Although my GF told me it was a "very small, pretty light" box.. so i'm not expecting it to be much different than the norm stuff..


2 small white masks suiBut hey.. my first Bandolier of Carrots is here!

Edit for Contents!

In my Bandolier of Carrots was

1 obligatory red lead painted backpacktable for scaring the cat
1 Paper Bag with a question mark on it
1 Seiko Womens Watch with a retail value of $350 (available online for around $110)

No t-shirt but how can I be unhappy? My GF loves the watch.. Although if anyone wants to swap for a working treo phone I could be persuaded to swap.

Pics later if anyone is interested

Does anyone want to sell me their Question mark bag? It would make great wrapping for a present for my Aunt or Brother or Mother... All Avid wooters

PM me if you are interested.

just got my carps

1 Black and Red Backpack
1 "Reality isn't for everyone" T-shirt size L (no visible defects)
1 USB 2.0 lighted cable (orange)
And a small bag of armor pieces for a predator toy (alien v predator). I have the face covering, breastplate, and two arm things.

Well worth my $8, thanks woot!
Now it feels like the day after Christmas.

Oh man tracking says mine was delivered at 3:04 and I was there until 4:30 and no box. I will be totally bummed. Delivered to wrong place??

I got the backpack,
I got the Woot Monkey Octapus whatever shirt 2 sizes too big (2x),
I got the Miami Vice Model Car,
AND I got the working Maxteck 7 in. touch screen GPS navigation system which goes for a minimum of $300 online. What a friggen sweet deal. The only thing I think its missing is the remote...but who needs it anyway. Couldn't ask for much more in a Bandolier of Carrots.

I got my first Bandolier of Carrots today, yipeeeee!

1. One bright yellow t-shirt from shirt.woot.com
2. One GI Joe.
3. One red and black back pack.
4. A lovely brown paper bag with a big yellow question mark, and handles.

Got my first Bandolier of Carrots!!!!

1x Red made in China backpack
1x International doll
1x Cross-over pen/highlighter
1x ? brown bag
1x Kyocera Installed Bluetooth Hands-Free Kit

Not too bad for my first Bandolier of Carrots.

Mine's been at work since Friday. Co-workers report a rather large (4 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft) box in my cube that they're drooling over. Was almost tempted to end my vacation early, but will anxiously wait until the morning to see what I got.

Finally got my first Bandolier of Carrots after years of trying!

1 red and black backpack
2 blue masks
1 Question Mark paper bag
1 "Cool Cardboad Collectible build your own T-Rec and Stegosaurus"
1 SuperLite LED Keychain with batteries




And here's the finished product:

On my 27th Woot, I finally scored my first Bandolier of Carrots!

1 obligatory red & black backpack
1 Kyocera Wireless Headset
1 brown t-shirt, size L
1 cellophane bag of what appear to be 6 colored game pieces... sort of midget General McArthurs or something.

I'm not jumping for joy or anything at my haul, but happy to finally join the Bandolier of Carrots family... and the headset will come in handy since I just put my old headset (also from Woot, BTW) through the washing machine... it didn't like that too much.

I got mine today:

- Red and black backpack
- International Beauties Miss USA doll. A little scary looking, and it has something that looks a bit like dandelion fluff in the box, so I have not removed the doll.
- Cross Vice pen/highligher
- Palm IIIc pda. Looks new, still has plastic on the screen. No charger/cradle or CDs, and it doesn't start up without it. Did someone get those?
- Paper bag with a big yellow ? (I guess I scored two bags!)



Thanks Woot!

In my box was the following:
Red backpack
Woot monkey t-shirt sans monkey (and any printing on the front), Size L
Napoleon Dynamite wild cherry chapstick
Palm Treo 600 GSM Smart Phone sans SIM card

I sent you a PM.

Well, I got my Crap. It's nothing to write home about. I ordered 3 craps and I got;

The red and black backpack
10 felt masks, the masquerade type with no straps on them
a ? bag

I'm not complaining but I ordered 3 craps and it appears I only got 2 (unless the masks each count as 1 item, then I guess I really scored!)
I was really hoping for a GI joe or some other cool toy!
Thanks Woot the anticipation was well worth the $8!
I've seen people speculating on here about the ? bag, has anyone heard anything. I was just wondering since it seems I didn't get a 3rd piece of crap.

Received my Bag last Thursday, but seeing as I went out of town on Wednesday morning I am just now getting a chance to post the contents. I will add photo links tonight.

* Bag of Texas Air (30)
* Bag of Silica Gel - Delicious AND nutritious! (1)
* Rat Fink Character Bank (1)
* Woot Green T-doody - Large (1)
* Red "Made in China" Backpack (1)
* HP iPAQ 6510 Pocket PC Cell Phone w/ All Access. (1)

Phone had a note on the side of the box that it would not power up. Wife charged it while I was away, I popped my SIM card in and it came up right away. Don't see any problems yet.

yes i got my CRAP .......
1 red backpack
1 cross vice pen
1 brown bag with yellow ? (empty)
1 salt & pepper shaker w/ mini tray has Florida sticker which came off in the box ( i wonder if it has lead paint on it ?) hmmm

My 1st crap now I can sleep

Wow, I really scored!

I got:
- XL "Reality Isn't For Everyone" t-shirt
- Chinese backpack
- Cover for Ipod nano
AND...

Some woot art! A woot god took a large fountain drink cup and put some pretty crazy decorations on it including electrical tape, wire, and some paper cutouts that look like feathers almost. I'll post pics ASAP. Awesome! I might add a little bit more and turn it into a lamp shade...

Just got back from vacation to my Bandolier of Carrots:

Basic red & black backpack
Green T-shirt WOOT on the butt size L (great for the gym)
Rat fink with skate board
RC helicopter (I still have not been able to get it to work)
and the best of all........22 bags of Texas air!

Is it my imagination or was this round of crap crappy?

I certainly got my money's worth! I didn't get 3 pieces of random crap... I got 4! I got two of the masks sans elastic! Also, 1 lighted USB cable, 1 green plain woot tshirt, and 1 red backpack.

Well, got my crap today, and lo and behold, the tape on the box was a bit haphazard and one of my craps was missing! I'm worried that I got something cool and some shifty postal worker with busy hands rifled through it. Needless to say, a big let down for me. Did this happen to anyone else?

Finally got my crap...

The backpack
Napoleon Dynamite Coconut Lip Balm
Food Solar System shirt
Kyocera Wireless Stereo Headset (broken)

Definitely a bunch of crap....oh well

I apparently work with bad length estimators. In fact, I'm a bad one as well so I won't guess on the size other than saying that it was what I could best describe as "standard size box" size.

guesswho said:
RC helicopter (I still have not been able to get it to work)

lulz...mine came DOA also...when I turned it on an LED would blink, but nothing else would happen even when I tried to charge it overnight. I e-mailed woot! on the off chance I could return it but, as I figured, no dice...crap is crap. I then tried the manufacurer site but they didn't even reply to my e-mail & a telephone # was nowhere to be found. Oh well, the rest of the crap I received was worth it.

Just got mine today (first time I was able to get one before it sold out). Took over 2 weeks to get here...not a bad haul...was hoping for Zune though

1 Red Backpack
1 Orange lighted USB Cable
1 Space 1999 "David Kano" 8 inch action figure (still in box)
1 Large Woot tshirt (Brown with cars on it)
Let me tell you this tshirt has been through HELL though. Printing smeared all over it...and it looks like someone had fun with scissors on it also...numerous cuts, holes, and material missing all over it...very odd
