Ok maybe this will work. I am having a heck of a time getting a post to go through. I just discovered that some shipping information was sent to USPS. Hopefully that means something good!

I still have to wait until next Wed. for my Level 1 crap.

My first Big o' Cosmos was Dec and was truly c*r*a*p
but it turned out I got a lot out of it. My niece LOVED the ugly little sequined bag that I gave her as a gag gift. And I used the keychain photo thing that wouldn't work with a Mac to hold a little photo contest on Facebook with friends, getting far more fun out if it than if it had worked for me.

Snuggly in the second Big o' Cosmos (March) was very useful when the heater/AC stopped working.

So my 7.1 pounder on its way? I can't wait!

3 Ipod earphone splitters
2 packages of woot cedar planks
4 180 earmuffs
1 Trick toy spring-loaded knife (taken immediately by my 11 year old and promptly disassembled)
1 flowery bag

Not a bad haul for a Big Orphaned Cetacea.

My Level 8 departed Atlanta at 6:37 last night!!!!!! Still says Wednesday, but maybe it'll get here faster!

No other strange calls from FedEx though. That must have been a false alarm.

All expected April 12th, and four of the 5 bags being delivered to my college house are here. I am so excited but I think we are waiting till my other roommate gets his last one....

This is going to be explosive.

that only means, sir, that fedex has notified USPS to expect a package from them. You've been wooting since 2006 and dont know that by now?

I have been a member for a long time, but have not wooted for a long time. I don't recall a line like that in previous orders, so I thought I would ask in case it wasn't ordinary.

my level 2 crap is now with the USPS. Dimensions didn't change though. Still 2.8lbs and 9.75" cubed. I can't imagine I'm getting a cube though... I was hoping it would come 2 days early like last April (My last Big o' Cosmos), but that looks unlikely now so I will have to wait til at least Monday after work for mine (supposed to be Tuesday delivery, but usually once the post office has it I get it the next day). Looking at what everyone got I'm not expecting anything too exciting, but there at least seems to be some variety this time around with the packages that weigh the same, so I'm still looking forward to the surprise.

following along with reply to get my post at the end here...

Got my crap today. way earlier than expected (was due the 12th). from level 6 was 3.9#

1x Rpet recycled tote bag
2x purple empty rubber wristwatch bands
10x 180s Ear Warmers (almost full bag these are great!)
1x Earl Gray Flowering Teas (Love this!)
1x unknown clip/charger base for missing electronic device (bluetooth item??)
16x Texas air

And best of all -I think I hit the jackpot here- maybe someone here knows better than I the value of this since I can't find much reference...

1x Program from Wrestlemania 21 Goes Hollywood April 3, 2005 at Staples Center in LA. Bonus- signed by EVERY wrestler in the program including Hulk Hogan, Undertaker, Batista, Roddy Piper... and on and on.. everyone! wow.

I am no WWE fan, but I think someone had this in their closet a long time and it seems to be of significant collector value....

Thanks Woot! This was pretty cool. Maybe the most fun Big o' Cosmos I've ever received! I'll post photos as soon as I figure out where I can drop them (having trouble with usual sites).

Is it sad that I'm looking forward to getting what most people call crap in my 6.9lb bag? Specifically I'd love to get a pair of those 180s, I almost bought them during the wootoff but figured I'd wait for my box to come. Oh and the colgate Wisps, those things are awesome! I throw a couple in my car and they work wonders! I would have bought those during the wootoff if I wasn't asleep...

1 x Big o' Cosmos Level 5 (4/1/11)
1 x Juan Valdez Pod Coffee Maker @ $12.99 (10/3/08)
30 Random Marvel Comic Books @ $0.99 (pack of 10) (10 for Tuesday 4/15/08)
3x Big o' Cosmos @$1.00 (2nd on April Fool's '08)

If it is signed by every wrestler on the ticket, definitely some value there. Two of the wrestlers on that card have since deceased (Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit).

It was also the debut of the Money In The Bank match which had a loaded cast as well. Just my thought as one who has followed WWE.

Does yours normally come straight in from Atlanta? My packages from Woot always go through Atlanta to Charlotte, then down to SC. Mine is currently in limbo between Charlotte and my post office. Says to expect it the 12th, but I'm hoping for the 11th since I'm only 1 1/2 hours from Charlotte. Today would've been nice, but that would be too good to be true!

My Level 8, 4.6 lb, 11.5 in. cubed crap just arrived (several days ahead of schedule!).

Contents:

1x Black and white recycled tote bag
1x Camel Colored Deluxe Snuggie w/ booklight
4x Sandisk usb charging cables
1x Nancy Kerrigan trading card from 1994!

Not a bad haul! I only paid $3 because I had a $5 off coupon, and the Deluxe Snuggie looks like it costs at least $10, so I am quite pleased! Plus, who doesn't want a Nancy Kerrigan trading card??

My level 10 Box of Chocolates arrived today.
(Remember, life is like a Box of Chocolates, you'll never know what you'll get!)

The haul:


  • Two stacks of Woot! cedar grilling planks (total of 12 planks.)
  • Two emergency flashlights.
  • Three gold-plated HDMI cables
  • An airline wash bag - logo from a company I won't mention but their initials are "AA".
  • A tacky black and white striped tote bag
  • 17 bags of fresh Texas air. We need fresh air here in Washington DC to help reduce the hot air factor, you know.
  • And a personalized shipping box. (Well, it has my name on it, at least).
The actual box was 18x12x12, 7.5 lbs.

All in all a very good haul. The cables are cool, the cedar planks are perfectly timed for the grilling season, and my daughter (who is waiting for her Big o' Cosmos to arrive still) will take the tote bag. Unless her Mom decides she wants it instead.

Thanks, Woot!

Woot! Now 100+ woots for me!
That's 87 woots (Including Twelve Bats On Crack!), 12 Sellout.woots, 8 wine.woots and 4 kids.woots, and finally, 2 shirt.woots!
