Probably just a lazy mailman. In the 4 years I've been at my current address, my mailman has never once delivered a package that wouldn't fit in the mailbox. He doesn't even get out of the van, just puts the "sorry we missed you" note in the box and I have to go to the post office to pick it up. I've already been in the yard 10' away when the mail was delivered. He saw me and he did this anyway.

My Box of Cooties was supposed to be here today, but SnailPost let me down. Looks like I have to wait until tomorrow to see what carp the Wooties sent me way. :-(

1x random box empty for a dc powered coffee maker was sitting on top of the spoils when the box was opened.
2x W00t server foam! looks like foam that cradled the woot server hard drives before deployed in the servers!



cant say that I would trade my carp with anyone.

For the picture, you may notice masking tape on the big box. My wife sealed the box back up before I got home to keep the kids out.

I got my Blogging Old CEO today - two days ahead of the ETA given by Smartpost!! I have been purposefully avoiding the discussion boards so I wouldn't even begin to speculate on what I might get. Needless to say, we were surprised.

My wife was home when it arrived and wouldn't give me any info about the box over IM. I got home and found this:

(ignore the dog; focus on the box)

I didn't think we would have been lucky enough to score a printer - especially since I had been considering buying one lately. However, I've not know Woot to re-use boxes.

I opened the box to find:


Four Woots!

One (1) Memory Card case
One (1) Bluetooth Headset - complete with headset and power cord
One (1) Birthday Card - complete with envelope
One (1) Kodak printer - complete with ink, printheads, power cord, etc.

Yes, I'm counting the card as a woot. If I save the card for 3½ years, I can give it to my daughter!

Thanks Woot !! Happy Fourth Birthday !!!!

Glad to know the printer works! I haven't had time to hook it up yet (nor have I remembered where I stashed my spare USB cables).

It looks like most everyone is doing really well with this round of BOCs.

Thanks again Woot !

Just busted mine open. I had dreams of a Nokia N95 and thought my dreams had been answered when I saw a Nokia box. Not quite, but not bad:

1 Nokia N800 Internet Tablet. Looks to be a return or something. Missing usb cable and charger. Powered up fine when I put the battery in.
1 Porcelain violin box
1 Targus Memory case
3 Black and Decker portable power gizmos.

This was my second bag o carp. First time truly was carp. This one was a score.

Got my Braille on Cookies today...

1x Targus memory card wallet
1x Wireless XBox headset
1x Coca Cola Collectibles mini-Sprite can with straw
1x RMA'd FM transmitter (with RMA note attached indicating a "short")
1x 2GB respiffied Sansa e250 (no sync cable, works fine from what I can tell)
1x Sansa ear buds
1x Black & Decker T2 Arize Toaster - Brand new in sealed box (has anyone else gotten one of these yet?)

I'd be much more excited about the toaster if the reviews I've read didn't indicate that it is likely to burn down my house.. :p

All in all, a nice haul! Much nicer than my last Blogging Old CEO in which I didn't even get a "bag"...

[edit]D'oh! Forgot about the XBox headset.[/edit]

Got mine today, it is identical to yours. Hopefully I can find some paranoid people to sell the LoJacks too, and maybe I can get rid of the Xbox headsets on eBay or something.

Anyone know of any good uses for the headsets (besides using with an Xbox, of course)?

I looked around google, and it looks like the wireless headsets can't be modded for XBOX 360. Anyone else look into this? Anyone find anything?

No but it might be usable with a PC with some sort of USB mod, the xbox controller is just a 2 port USB hub (memory card slots)

Oh I didn't think of that, nice. and if it can be used with USB than maybe it could be used with PS2? *giggles* just an idea.

Okay, it left the sortation center that's an hour away from me (where it's been for four days), but there's no report that it was handed to USPS. Does that mean that it's on its way to me anyway, or does that mean that FedEx needs a geography lesson and it's headed toward another sortation center in God-only-knows-where?

YAY finally!! it's left Martinsburg!! I also realized i don't have to wait until august 1st b/c I'm going to VA Sunday, so I can just swing by my parent's house on my way down! It's a little longer going that way, but it's worth it for my carp! So hopefully I shall be able to report back my booty Sunday or Monday :-D
