At least the box was still sealed! The last time, I got a broken, empty box, and the replacement one Woot sent had a fist-size hole in it, presumably missing whatever could fit through a fist-size hole.

A lot of people complaining about the box. Whereas the contents of my box was probably one of the lesser (but still a lot of fun)- I had a very good quality box. Construction and taping of the box is really top-notch.

Luckily my wife went home for lunch today... Found box soaking in rain on front porch. Tracking updates claim it hasn't reached local PO yet. Can't wait to leave work (more than usual)!

I got a box of the curved tracks.

2 x Wibbly Fun balls
1 x skull necklace

1 x TruGlow Switchback Watch
1 x Furniture Polishing Kit
1 x Crab Bag

A great haul for the whole family, I got to keep the watch anyway!

I got the exact same bag, my watch works now that I put a new battery in it, the necklace still doesn't light up even with a new battery though.

I looked through a bunch of old threads. If it's big enough you'll get a call from fedex a few days before to arrange delivery. Otherwise, no you won't get a tracking number. ETA is probably next week.

Good luck!

Thanks for the info, I wonder if all three of us who received the Letter will get the same thing. Good luck to you as well!

I hope I get the train... Then the 3 of us can play together.

sqrt(16) = 4

So 4/4-1 = 0

When not specified, multiplication and division are done first, followed by addition and subtraction. So, it's right.

However, if he'd written 4/(sqrt(16)-1), that would be 1 1/3. Though (4/(sqrt(16))-1 would have been more clear.

OK, I'm going to stop it now...really...it's just because I don't really want to work

I'm going the lazy route on this...

Has anyone received a random round remote? I got a dual speaker/charger in my box but has no remote! lol Here's a picture (assuming it posts correctly) of what it looks like.



Here's what else I received:

1 box wooden railroad tracks
2 squishy and smelly balls
1 tennis racket vibration silencer
1 deck of cards that shocks you
1 lobster bag

mipatel wrote:dammit! i always get screwed up by parentheses

No, you got it right. See my post above

My 5.2lbs of brainwashed overdosed californians has arrived:

-4 bags texas air, all in mint condition (no deflate)
-1 Orca bag
-2 wibbly fun balls
-1 foot flush
-1 furniture polishing kit
-1 kids coloring kit.

The kids coloring kit packaging threw me off. It was the size of an ipad and had similar weight. I was very excited until I saw the coloring set. My kids got excited instead.

All in all, ok crap. No letter, but there's always next time!

He got it wrong, he did write (4/(sqrt(16) - 1)...

I must have missed that but, if that's the case, it's in error because it's missing a right parenthesis. Got three on the left and two on the right.

FINALLY got my Bundle of Cuddles

Very similiar to others
6- Steamy Texas Air
2 - Wibblys
1 - Crab Bag (was hoping for the Orca.. bummer)
1 - Prince vibration thing

Got my 3.3lb Bindle of Carrots today. It contained:

14 of those wonderful green bags of Texas air
1 Crab bag - I was hoping if I got one it would be a crab one
2 Wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... fun balls
1 Furniture polishing kit
1 tennis racket vibration damper - glows for those who play in the dark
1 skull necklace
1 iDealPak for your Ipod - open but complete

Well mine says delivered but when my Bride went to PO to pick it up USPS said there was no package waiting for me. Thanks SmartPost
So I guess I will see if it finds it way to my PO tomorrow.

I must say, pretty weak, but still fun! At least I didn't get the tennis crap... And I got double the wibbly balls most of you did!

Anyway, I have junk to give to coworkers. And the wife and I will use the crab bag whilst shopping.

* 5 bags of texas air
* 4 wibbly balls
* 1 crab bag
* 1 foot flush
* 1 rub n color kit
* 1 furniture cleaner and polish

it seems to be fixed now. we can all sleep in peace now.

Hey! That tennis crap is useful. It can light up 1 square centimeter AND allow you to play tennis in the dark like all the pros do.

I've already improved my tennis game from Andy Roddick to Waluigi-level.

It came today!

7 lbs.

1 - Foot Flush
2 - Wibbly Balls (wavy style)
1 - Size 8 Child's T-shirt (Schrodinger's Cat)
2 - Rub-n-Color Kits
1 - Furniture Kit
4 - Intact bags of Texas air
1 - Flat bag of Texas non-air
1 - Lobster bag (to hold them all)

Yay, Bundle of Crops! Woot!

1 x Remote BBQ Thermometer which I had just
bought during the May woot off!

Just thought I'd add, on closer inspection of the Maverick thermometer had stickers all over it that said "Meijer.com return" and the box had clearly been opened.

Everything was in there though and it works fine.

Just thought it was funny they were getting Meijer returns.

I believe amazon.com does the back end fulfillment of Meijer.com, it's quite possible woot is getting some of Amazon's returns.

yrguide wrote:I believe amazon.com does the back end fulfillment of Meijer.com, it's quite possible woot is getting some of Amazon's returns.

I suspect the crap is MAINLY returns. Things that can't and hasn't been sold for one reason or another. Somethings like the wiffle balls and glow in the dark silencers are probably just uber cheap overstock they buy specially for the bags.

I recall from my days in University working at a local Waldenbooks- out biggest profit margain came from... Bargain books- those cheap 1.99 books. Warehouses would clear those out REALLY cheap- and so even at $1.99 each we got a major profit. Profit on those expensive bestsellers not so much.

I suspect all the unique items are returns that can't be sold for some reason or other- some minor (or in some cases major) parts missing.

Since most of the items were not on woot- I suspect most of them come from Amazon or elsewhere.

Whether or not they make a profit on the bags... who knows? Even if not directly they do by increasing customer loyalty- generating buzz about their site- keeping the max number of people online during a wootoff.


Someone gets a TV in their bag- you can bet that not only the person who gets it- but most of the people that read about it on here will tell their friends about it- and thus Woots legend grows.

Yay, Bundle of Crops! Woot!

My Bundle of Crops was EXACTLY the same one except all 7 bags of my Texas air were in tact. Fun times.

My 6 lb Bundle of Crops contained:

18 full bags of Texas air
2 Wibbly Balls - 1 wavy 1 straight
1 Foot Flush - Kids might actually flush now
1 K10 "Rosebud" shirt - Daughter will love it
1 K10 "Bunnies Forever" shirt - I think there will be fighting over this one
1 Rub and Color - another win
1 Lobster bag - may be our new library bag

Well worth my $8. Thanks Woot!

Oh yeah:

1 furniture polish kit

2 Wibble balls
1 iPod speaker thingie, opened, no charger so no workie.
7 size S polo shirts in assorted appalling colors
2 Harley-Davidson keychains
1 Lobstah bag
1 tennis racket vibration damper - glows in the dark for continued games during rolling blackouts
7 bags of TX air



The dogs were not impressed, but I had a good time.

I got the iPod wireless speaker too, and its just a mini-USB plug. Mine came with a very short USB cord that worked to charge it, but I have one that plugs into the wall and has a mini-USB from my bluetooth, and I think something like that would work. As light and cheap as the cyfi speaker seems, its really quite nice, amazing sound quality from something so small and light. So I wouldnt give up on it just yet, also searched them online and it seems like 50$ is a good deal on one, so find yourself a power cord and you've got a valuable bag of carpies

30.5 pound Bindle of Carrots and it hasnt been delivered yet. No update from Fedex in 2 days. wonder if I'll ever get it

Me too. Mine was 5.2 lb as well.

I would just like to say that the Omnimount Essentials Furniture Cleaner and Polish works like a champ on cleaning CDs. It even fills in the fine scratches.

My kid brought one of his games into my office and said it wasn't working. It looked like he used it to do some gardening while eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The polish happened to be sitting on my desk unopened. Two squirts...one towel then the other...fixed it right up.

Mine finally came. fedex said it was 30.9 but felt more like 40.

2 pretty pink sandals bags
1 foot flush
2 wibbly fun balls
1 folding hammock ( my favorite out of the whole thing, came with 2 beds i guess you would call them. )
1 3x4 foot area rug
2 federal wage and laws poster ( like you would see in the break room at your work )
1 telescoping putter
1 Logitech wireless keyboard k250.

How so I contact WOOT? They shipped my Bundle of Crops to my billing address that we have moved away from!! I had the PO hold my mail and now they are sending it to some place in California... I want it in NY where I ordered it sent to!
