It finally arrived!


  • 2.1 pound box
  • 3 bags of Texas air
  • One 3' HDMI cable (needed, useful!)
  • One kids tote bag (perfect for a niece!)
  • Two Wibbly fun balls (new fun office accessories)
  • One Honey-do list (Marvelously inconvenient, see below)
  • One Prince Marionette (Christmas present!)
  • One other item peaking out from underneath...


I saw a little white corner sticking out from under the marionette. Could it be? Well, it was a sheet of paper, but apparently TPW forgot to write anything on it. So it goes.

However this rather standard basket of caca does not meet the stated standards. I didn't get any crap! Everything in the box was or will be useful; even the blank paper was handy when we got a phone call and I had to jot down a note.

Now about that Honey-do list... wanna talk about inconvenient? Upon spotting it, my wife's eyes lit up... she beamed one of her most winning smiles at me and wandered off to post it in the kitchen. She was still smiling on her return. Feigning indifference I sauntered into the kitchen to get a drink and eyed the new addition to the refrigerator door. There, job number one was already filled out: "Clean the living room and get all that Zombie laboratory junk out of there!"

I am fortunate she hasn't found the ultra-secret secondary laboratory under the stairs... the ommmminous hummmmm of despicable devices being adequately muffled, and since my reward will be great, the zombie research shall be moved as requested.

And I shall have control of the TV remote for a week! Bwaa haa haaa!

Look upon my Avatar, ye whiny, and despair!

Hahah, that's exactly what happened here... Though, my fiancee is having a hard time deciding what to put on the list for me to do and for my reward.

Mine is set for Monday, but considering its been in transit to my town for 12+hours, I may get lucky and get it tomorrow.

Doesnt appear that anyone has gotten a letter yet right? Or have I missed it?

Hope some letters go out this time around.

1 - Woot canvas bag
1 - Melissa & Doug 'two alphabets are better than one' puzzle
1 - Super Duper Kiddo goal chart
1 - Heavenly Hair Kit
1 - Xarix Baseball
1 - Professional Ninja Blender
1 - Dreamer Light Show Projector
39 - bags of Texas air....which is probably why the box only weighed 1 pound.

SmartLOLPost tracking told me the expected delivery date was 10/4 but the postman rang the doorbell today.

So my 4.9 lb box had:

- 1 gwen (c) recycled tote bag
- 2 wibbly FUN squishy things
- 2 Honey Do posters in separate tubes, one of which contained a package of honey do tokens.
- 1 Oregon Scientific Solar PowerHouse
- 1 *Speck SeeThru 13" MacBook protection case, new in box.

So, aside from the list price of each of these items individually, which sets me well ahead of the $8 investment, I will admit when I opened my Woot Box, there, partially obscured, was a round insignia on the upper right corner of a nearly all-white box was a label that read ' MacBook 13" '. So, yeah, for a brief moment, I was thinking, 'Is that a 13" MacBook?"

What a rube I was.

But, gotta be honest, it's really why we play the Bee Oh Cee game. You just never know.

Thanks, Woot!

FedEx so pisses me off.

They say the package is on the truck for delivery, so I go into the office to wait for them. I keep the tracker up and wait, and wait. It goes to a delivery exception without a truck going by. I call the local office, they guys says, well the package never left the site. They just scanned it and then deleted it eventually. I'll get my package Tuesday.

Why is it that FedEx can claim they are attempting to deliver when they don't even put the package on the truck? Talk about sleazy business practices. This just reinforces my opinion that FedEx is a really bad shipping company.

Came home to a very LARGE Bundle of Crops My hopes had been low since this is crap, after all, and the ones I've gotten in the past have been some variation of the "standard" crap assortment. To my surprise, I finally got some wacky items.

1x KidKraft Fun Explorers Pirate Ship Play set - this thing is like 2 1/2 feet long with two large masts, which explains the large box. Looking at pictures on Amazon, pretty much all the pieces are there except two wooden sharks (wah!)
1x American Angler cordless fillet knife w/ carrying case - appears to be brand new. The instructions are unreadable, so I may cut an arm off
1x Gwen's nest tote bag
1x Honey Do list poster with pleasure tokens
1x bag of mini rawhide chews
Several post-it notes with the scribblings of Woot! madmen

Very happy with my crap!

So 13 Bundle of Crops in and I can easily say...Worst Bundle of Crops ever.

Not just for me but it seems like the worst across the board

Oh Amazon, what have you done? Yeah I'm breaking the cardinal rule about the bag and 'complaining'. I should also mention Fight Club here too.

Bindle of Carrots GET!! Mine included the following:

1. Star Wars Darth Vader case including "Mighty Beanz" capsules that do "battle" (I don't get it, but whatever, it's Star Wars)
2. Discovery Kids Climate Cubes, which includes a gadgets to measure wind speed, rainfall, and temperature.
3. 2x wibbly-FUN balls (read: Koosh balls)
4. Honey Do "pleasure" rewards poster, complete with 5 Honey Do metal tokens (HAH, I love it!)
5. Little cloth bag with a basket of seashells printed on it.

Overall, not bad for $8. Not super useful to me, but the Star Wars and Climate Cubes can go to my niece and nephew, the bag to my mom, the wibbly-FUN as "stress balls" at work, and the poster for... gag gift?

Thanks, Woot! :D
