I really thought I was more patient than this but the last update I have from FedEx is from 5:30 AM on the 29th *sigh*

Edit: That's when it departed Dallas, and I'm in Ohio...



I'm in the same boat. 5:30 am 10/29/10 update on it's way to Ohio. New Berlin must have burned down.

Just received my Bucket of Candy at the office (to questions such as "What does woot sell anyway?"). 18x12x12 6.1 lb-er. Deliberately avoided the discussion this time to leave a little excitement even if it was just more calendars. I was pleasantly surprised:

10x bags o Texas air (nice here in Houston)
1x PGA backpack
1x PGA hat
1x shirt.woot, small (green, owl in a tree?)
1x red and black iPhone 3G/3GS case (I have a 4, go figure)
2x philips HDMI extenders
4x Brothers in Arms "Hell's Highway" action figures
1x Nishika N8000 35mm 3-D camera

So there you have it, no snap camera (whatever that is) but I did receive a camera that was apparently known for false advertising and adding lead weights to make it feel more "quality".

I love woot.

At least it's something I can blame on FedEx and not Woot [bows down to the Woot gods].



I live in Texas...4 hours away from Woot and I don't have my crap yet. Blame Fed-Ex...but Woot could have drove mine to my house and then partied on 6th street for Halloween....come on guys... We Texans get the crap end of the stick too...Still waiting for 5.1 lbs

I had my first woot dream....

I was in an office with my cousins (I have no idea why they were my co-workers), a dark interior, blinds closed to the outside, though on the first floor... Was eagerly anticipating my shipment of my Bountiful October Cornucopia. Got a medium sized box from the receptionist (the girl from Ugly Betty) which was promptly opened. Inside were hundreds of legal sized envelopes of many many colors, all decorated by young children. I looked at each and every one of them, but the very last one had the coveted letter... it was also handwritten by a child with backwards letters and in crayon. I never got to see what the missing item was from my shipment because my dream became about work at that point (website design).

Regardless, I'm sure that this isn't going to happen to me, because I don't work with my cousins, nor do I work at this office which was dark and high tech. If you are that person and you get handwritten notes from a child in your box, let me know because we obviously have a psychic connection.

And darn you woot for infiltrating my dreams.

My REAL Bucket of Candy left WV this am... should have it tomorrow if all goes right...

Sorry to hear you only got one Iphone case. Now my Bucket of Candy doesn't look so bad. (I didn't get any air either, but I'm in texas anyway so it doesn't matter to me.)

My Bucket of Candy just arrived at the New Berlin, WI facility. It dropped from 2.3 lbs to 2.1 lbs and the estimated delivery date changed from 11/5 to 11/6. Next stop on its journey is the black hole known as the Leetsdale,PA smartpost facility. Leetsdale is the place where they scan my Bucket of Candy out and then leave it sitting on the loading dock for 2 or more days while they build a pallet for delivery to my local post office.

I think my Bucket of Candy decided to go boating in Lewisville lake since they left the Dallas Fedex hub yesterday afternoon and they have not checked in with the post office yet. I guess I'll come tomorrow since it was its actual due date, I was hoping for early arrival today but no luck I guess.

My big ol' caddy hit New Berlin today, enroute to N. Indiana.

It gained and ounce (6.1 to 6.2 lbs) and the dimensions are now 18.4" x 12.6" x 12.5".

And the expected delivery grew from 11/4 to 11/5.

Well, mine changed from 10" cube to 14.4 in. x 10.4 in. x 8.9 in. and lost some weight (3 lbs. down to 2.2 lbs)... Here's hoping for a letter!

Oh, and it's stuck at New Berlin now with a delivery date of 11/5 (original was 11/4).

Seems like some really crappy crap this time.

my 8.1LBer is still camped out in Denver, it got there just in time for the Halloween party and isn't slated to be delivered for another 72 hours. It's still claiming it's initial weight and dimensions.

Wow! I checked USPS for mine, which just left Atlanta last night and . . .

it's OUT FOR DELIVERY!!

MyFecdex shows it as turned over to the PO, but cautions that it will be 1 or 2 more days.

The PO seems to have outdone itself. Yea PO!

It's NOT here yet, I just checked.

Just LOOK at the turn around in the B'ham PO:

Out for Delivery, November 01, 2010, 12:01 pm, BIRMINGHAM, AL 35209
Sorting Complete, November 01, 2010, 11:51 am, BIRMINGHAM, AL 35209
Arrival at Post Office, November 01, 2010, 10:52 am, BIRMINGHAM, AL 35209
Electronic Shipping Info Received, October 31, 2010

Nothing snail like about that!

I think you took my ounce. Mine went down to 3,3 lbs from 3.4 and changed to a 18.2 in. x 12.6 in. x 12.5 in box from a 10.2" cube.

And it also backed up a day. Sad.

So, still no reported letters. The longer the wait for someone to report a letter, the better....for me, until I notice I do not have one either when I get my Bolsa.

Mine bypassed New Berlin, but I still got the shank end in Cleveland. Mine got picked up in Irving on the 28th, hit Grove City 28 hours later, and was out for delivery on the 30th. Well and good, except we all had ours delivered to work, so now we're waiting for FedEx to get around to retrying delivery.

The amazing part: They can be here with them to deliver at 8:45 on a Saturday, but don't show up til 3p on a weekday.

seems like you and I share the same size and dimensions for our crap...mine's swiftly gotten to Allentown just moments ago (was in WV yesterday) so I expect 1 or 2 more days to get to me by PO (not the anticipated 11/5 date).

I have to say I think my crap seemed a lot less crappy this time because I had no idea what was going to be in it since I was the first to post. It was a lot more exciting! Maybe next time I'll try not looking at the boards. That's going to be really hard to do though! It's like not shaking the Christmas presents under the tree!
