For those who have not seen temp hit his first Bowl of Cereal off the roof before opening it, here it is from the other angle. Watch as they try and throw it back up inflicting more damage on the poor carrots

I am in line waiting for someone to be denied.

It is the 50th bag and 300 sold...could be an interesting one.

Interesting, the stats say that 208% of the purchasers of the bag have been Wooters for more than one year! Go Wooters! Beat that 100%!

(Still processing)

Are the woot off light's motors supposed to be inordinately loud?

Alas, I got to the processing page, but it didn't seem to go through. At least it made an hour of work go by quickly.

HappyHour? Please explain good sir

No Bowl of Cereal for me either. I just got kicked out of the line. Hey Woot, let's do this again sometime.

I now have 4 sets of them, three yellow and one police. One grinds loudly, two hum along, and one is almost silent.

Quality control is not real big here.

If you follow Woot on twitter, they have random one hour Woot Offs for their followers.

I managed to score one, but my wife seems to have been blocked out.

abramokids wrote:HappyHour? Please explain good sir

http://www.woot.com/blog/viewentry.aspx?id=11919 will tell you the whole story.

Its a one hour mini-WootOff that occurs randomly. Follow Twitter #Woot for announcements.

I didn't get the happy hour bag, my internet was crapping out. Oh well.

Still on the order processing page...

The suspense...argh!!!!



Maybe posting a big picture of the bag will help.

Wow i have NEVER been able to get a Bowl of Cereal on woot and i've been on here for 3 years.. and now i got 2 of them in April!!

For my 'Adventure Crap' i got some 8 boxes of xmas cards, 4 slinkies, a pair earbuds and this Winnie the Poo 'brush your teeth' set that plays this horrible music for 2 mins.

Hopfully i get something a little more spiffy in the Happy Hour Bowl of Cereal.

Still on the order processing page...

The suspense...argh!!!!

Sending good luck your way unless you get denied AND I am next in line. (wink, wink)

Man, those cars sure are dirty. You better get some washing and waxing done. Psst...I know this guy on Woot that got a WHOLE pallet of wax...perhaps he can hook you up!

ROFLMBO!!!

Mine is still "processing" after about an hour. And I thought waiting for the adventure cotton to arrive was nerve-wracking. This is downright excruciating.

I got;
Jonas Bros Bag
Mini-Tripod
Pirates cd-rom for the flix
Red/Blue wootoff lights
mini-slinky.

typical carp at 1.7 lbs.
Thanks Woot Gods!

Got mine last Friday, identical to this one.

Same here, still processing.



It hasn't appeared on my account page yet either. I'm starting to lose hope.

Perhaps change your woot nickname?

LayneRobinson wrote:It's here! It's here! It's here!

The FedEx guy had a lot of trouble getting it out of the truck.

drum roll......

A pallet of 864 bottles of car wax!

3x4x6 boxes containing a dozen containers of various flavors of Victory Wax.

Now, who's got a dirty car?

Now THAT is awesome!! Has to be one of the best April Fools pranks I've ever seen....

I think I've lost hope for the HappyCrappy. Still says processing, but when I manually refresh to another tab, I just get my account window, with nothing new listed.

Sigh.

Same scene here. Got in for it, the girl's never went through. Gotta love corporate internet.

drgandalf wrote:Any change for you, everwondering?

Nope. Same as you when I did the refresh thing too. Oh well. I can't complain since I know there are others who've been trying for years, while I've been trying for... weeks. And I did manage to score the adventure coaster on 4/1, so definitely no complaining here. I will just wait (im)patiently for the next offering!

Congrats to those lucky few who did get one!

By the way, I'm totally digging the bat-shaped unibrow on my avatar. Not exactly feminine, but I suppose it could be worse.

The car wax story frightened the hell out of my wife. Now she's begging me never to try for another Bowl of Cereal lest we end up with a metric farkton of LeakFrogs.

Now THAT I wouldn't mind.

Especially if I got the YELLOW LeakFrogs!

I could have so much fun with a pallet of leakfrogs. The car wax wouldn't be too bad either. A pallet of ANYthing, really, has the potential to be a crapload of fun.

Congrats on your victory(wax)!

...and I love my avatar!

Lizzie Borden took an axe... :-P

Pics and video coming soon.

loved watching someone elses package fall off a palet!!!!!! "hey whys my printer broke?"

spamhead wrote:The car wax story frightened the hell out of my wife. Now she's begging me never to try for another Bowl of Cereal lest we end up with a metric farkton of LeakFrogs.

Bwahahaha! The same exact thing just happened with my wife.

I told her about the car wax and she said, "OK, you gotta stop ordering those things. If we get something like that, I'm NOT going to be happy."

She only puts up with my baggies because I once got a Sansa that, while it doesn't work properly, I was able to pull about 200 songs off of it that she mostly wanted.

She gets ticked at random woot.shirts too. I then remind her that I don't do drugs and she leaves me alone.

And now my Book of Crap:

The box:


the dvd player:


the speakers:


and everything!:


hooray for my first crap!

Further update on the pallet of car wax.....

I moved every single box (not all at once, but still) and did a better count (instead of the length x width x height. There were some boxes that were smaller and took up less space. A total of 93 boxes containing 12 bottles each. 1,116 bottles of car wax.

I'd stage a remake of bikini car wash, but I don't have access to a bevvy of buxom brunettes.


Oh, and I now know the exact definition of a "crapload" of something. It's 1,758 pounds or 1,116 "things".

I got my confirmation for my Book of Crap from woot happy hour...I was working on my taxes so..Thanks Woot for making my hour happier

That load almost broke that tailgate on that truck. I love how the fedex guy handled the other box on a pallet. Hope nothing broke on that one.

Yeah, fortunately it wasn't too unwieldy! My commons desk laughed at me when I picked it up though, haha.

pattiq wrote:I am in line waiting for someone to be denied.

It is the 50th bag and 300 sold...could be an interesting one.

I got one!! My wife got "in line" but we all know how that goes (30min later... "your order is NOT in").

I'm pretty exited to see what a 300 quantity box of cats looks like, and the 50th anniversary might make it interesting, too. I know I'm supposed to post on Twitter when I receive it, hence the lack of a forum thread. But will the other Spartans of the 300 join me here, too?

300: A New Epic Adventure Begins...

Mine finally came in. Took a look inside. Itemized report:
1) Mini Tripod
2) High School Musical Wall Clock
3) 2x Slinky Jr. (Metal)
4) 8x Green die-cast metal tractor toys
B) -Absent-

So there's been a distinct lack of bag in some of these Adventure Packs. I'll mention it to Woot, but won't expect them to send anything more than a paper baggy in an envelope to me. The stuff I got is still useful (and prime material for my own mystery bags to re-sell).
Can't get a picture up, it seems. :<
