The look on my wife's face when she saw what I bought......priceless!!!

uhmmmm!

If anyone checks their shipping (what are the odds?) info, please note that they ALL ship FROM Texas.

Can someone prove that their package was ORIGINATED in ANY other state?

I believe the confusion may have been started by someone wanting to say: "it seems that the bags going to CA have better stuff". If I recall, the poster and the one he/she was refering to were from in CA.

Uhm, no. Woot only ships product out of its warehouse in TX.

Look at my Signature.
I have bought a lot from Woot...
I live in So Cal.

I have never gotten anything from woot that didn't come from Carrollton, TX.

I am just saying that Woot has one warehouse (in TX), and that this is misunderstanding of someone elses post.

I am. Listen to him every morning. I'm in Beaverton. I should be getting a booty over charged, have .4 weight, but Fed X doesn't have any info. All it has as of now is "shipping info sent to Fed-X".

Roombas do not perform Personal Services. They clean your floors.

Get your hair cut somewhere else. But they will clean up the hair afterwords.

I have 2 cats, the Roomba would jam in about 10 minutes, and then that'd be my excuse to take it apart, and Binford it.

Got my Bavarian Orangejuice Colonoscopy...

A "Sistema" TR2 1650psi "Refurbished" pressure washer. The thing came in it's original packaging, which was repackaged by the original owner and had an envelope with the word "Returns" on it. So I guess I'm the second owner of this refurb (thus, it's a "refurbfurb"). I haven't fired it up yet, because I don't yet have goggles or Kevlar body armor, but soon I'll give it the ol' college try! As for initial opinion, the handle is broken and it was definitely used by the previous owner. However, you'd be amazed what I can fix with duct tape and, since it's a pressure washer, it's first task will be to clean itself. As for value...it seems these things were refurb champs on Amazon back in 2005; meh-ratings, but then it was only $89...so what do you expect?

Thanks Woot! Now I can show the neighbor kids what a real "supersoaker" is (not to mention, have you seen how much fun an embolism can be?).

PS: My FedEx weight was listed at .2lbs but this thing weighs about 40...

Been a Wooter pretty much since the beginning. . .and I think this is where I jump ship on the B*O*Cs phenomenon and call it quits. At least when I stayed up trying to catch one, if I couldn't get in, I was never out the cash. Never felt bad when I truly ended up with crappola since it was all fun and games. But now I feel double punked. I got no B*O*C AND I just spent my lunch money on USB Woot-Off lights that puts my collection to 4 sets (and I'm not a collector). As quoted from the Southpark episode Guitar Queer-o, Thad Jarvis: "I quit, I quit, I quit I quit I quit."

Hurm... But then it would suck up the cats as well. Wait, maybe that's a GOOD thing! Line it with a steel pressure chamber and that sheep washer from Wallace and Grommit. The RoombaXP will then eat one cat, chew vigerously for a couple minutes, then spit the now CLEANED cat out through the cat door. (Bonus points awarded if you catch the mailman coming up the walk. Double points if he makes it out with any 2 articles of clothing intact. ANY 2 articles.)

Pretty crappy Boggy Old Creature, but I can't complain about (mostly) free scaffolding, can I?

2x Boston Red Sox dry erase hanging calendars
1x Disney Tinkerbell lunchbox/purse
1x HP notebook 90W AC adaptor
1x Belkin TuneCast Auto FM transmitter for SanDisk Sansa media players
1x charger for Motorola S9 Bluetooth stereo headset (but no headset)
1x Jawbone Bluetooth (but no charger)

and of course 1x set of woot! lights...

The jawbone would be nice, if I could charge the damned thing.

I may be game if you're serious.

I think the sansa's FUBAR, though, tried a bunch of guides that I've found on the subject.

I think the next time I return something I'll put an envelope in it with a letter to the lucky W00ter that ends up with it. Please post it when you get it.

I got my lights today. They make the grinding noise and don't spin at the same speed, but they're still pretty sweet. I just need some suction cups fr the bottoms now.

was this in a box that was about 13" x 9" x x7"?

I have the idea that this is going to be exactly what I receive also. Pretty sure it's coming tomorrow. It reached a USPS facility in my city this morning, but it was after 8 a.m. so it couldn't have made it onto a delivery truck today.

Got my first burrito today. It was supposed to arrive on Thursday. So you could see how excited I was for my first bag. I got:


  1. 12 Vicks Junior Thermometers
  2. A pair of awesome woot lights
  3. A targus accessory pouch
  4. THE three DVD's


Needless to say, I'm psyched.

Here's a picture.

Allrighty then...realizing that a baby of the cosmos is really just a baby of the cosmos, and not really needing a third set of lights to add to the pile of monkeys, I'm totally satisfied with:

4 - yes four, really funky heart-shaped digital photo keychains

3 very used DVDs that even the hubster won't watch (Superbad, Blades of Glory, and Team America World Police.)

1 69 cent tote that says WINE WINE WINE WINE

However, the weird thing is, NO LIGHTS! On the box it says:
REF 1 27014961
REF 2 WT 10242A 1 WOOT=OFF LIGHTS
REF 3 RWT 000942648
REF 4 W78645

Can someone enlighten me? Does this mean they're sending the lights with the big screens and laptops?

Better than everyone else.

So then they do fool you with shipping weight? My friend won just the woot lights and his shipping weight was 3.5 lbs. I am supposedly getting a baby of the cosmos and it says the weight is 1.9 lbs? hmm strange. I am also in CA. According to Fed Ex I should have my package when I get home from work today. I will for sure share what I recieve
