It took me 2 years to get one.

sainttess wrote:Well, that was agonizing.

I never get crap.

I'm going to go occupy Wall Street and demand that those who are able to get the crap, share with those of us who don't.

Honestly, those of you who didn't get your order confirmed got BIGGER CRAP that those of us who finally did. And, you didn't have to pay for your CRAP. Feel lucky! You got CRAP for free! You got frustration and wasted time--what more CRAP do you want?

I jest. (And, I can--I GOT MY CRAP! Finally. About my turn!)

Getting a Bucket of Candycorn used to be like a sprint, now its a marathon. At least the ladies are happy.

I feel your pain, that's the same thing that happened to me. Felt like I was all alone in a blizzard.

wow, looking at the map, I think I may have been the only person in Wyoming to get one of these.

Woo! I got a Bucket of Candycorn again! Yay! LOL I know it's stuff I don't want and yet the allure of mystery crap draws me in.

Well, there's an hour and a half that I'll never get back...got to the confirmation page and clicked on the stupidly large button only to have the house of cards collapse. Dagnabbit, Woot!

I believe the nomenclature was changed this year to its colloquial name. It was always Random Crap, now it's Bag of.

I'm just hoping my CRAP comes before they offer Christmas Crap again. The Woot shipping dock must be packed with CRAP lately. My last Woot Off order took FOREVER to get here.

Maybe I should buy three of the PCs next time and donate them to the Woot cloud!!

Same here. First time I've experienced the blank page deal. Have had it try to load and not, but this time that blank page loaded pretty quickly. Hit the "want" button within a second or two. Oh, well. I like the "puzzle" type better anyhow. Since woot became so large, those are the only ones I've managed to snag.

Am I the only person that saw the crap-shooter game to get the Bucket of Candycorn?

Everything kept error-ing out when trying to order, but the crap-shooter game worked fine and I assume if you got a high enough score, you were able to order a Bucket of Candycorn easily, because everytime that I died there was an unclickable option to order a B_O_C or to play again to get a higher score / further.

Did no one else see this? You had to turn off ad-blocker because it was in the top banner ad.

Just curious if anyone else played it and succeeded and if so how far did you have to go. I never made it past level 4. It seemed I kept coming across obstacles that were impossible to avoid.

You're right - same here. My other 4 bolts of Chiffon say Random Crap - But not this one.

WOOHOOO Got the email!!! My 3rd Bundle of Chorizo!!!!!!! It appears that I get them at the same time every year..
9/25/09
9/22/10
10/12/11

Hopefully something better than kid shirts and gym bags this time around!!!

Edit: Nevermind, the last one was titled that as well.

Crap is Crap. ;)

Hmm, well the last one I got was during April Fools, level 4. And that was still called Random Crap. So they changed it sometime between then and at least a month ago. Haven't been paying too much attention, I'm just happy I got one!

Got one but only because it lasted so long. I was having NO luck on my laptop so I grabbed my iPad and after a couple of attempts and being patient while the pages loaded...I scored.

All I would ever get was a blank page after clicking "I want one". Many, many times and different browsers.

To everyone who did not get a Box of Cobwebs

I got a Box of Cobwebs 3 Woot Offs ago and indeed it was as advertised!

Sometimes you get the Woot, sometimes the Woot gets you!

I tried once today, received an Internal error and went back to work. Box of Cobwebs#39;s are nothing to get worked up over.

It's exciting to get one, so congrats to all that did! (But honestly opening the box can be very anti-climatic unless there are pallets being shipped to you)

Nice hustle!

It's been too long since my last Bucket of Candycorn.
Glad to say, however, that I managed to get this one using a Windows Phone 7. Niiice!

So if it is still "processing", it probably means I am out of luck, no?

Over an hour of my effing life...wasted. Do you hear me Woot?! An hour I spend refreshing your pages and clicking your gold buttons and all for naught! All WAAAAAAAAASTEEEEEEEED! *shakes fist to the sky*

Got my confirmation email. Surprisingly. I'm happy and speechless. My 2nd Box of Cobwebs this year after 6 years of no Box of Cobwebs#39;s.

Success! 4th Barrel of Candy and just in time for Halloween!!

Since my page sill says

"your order is processing.

SHOULD JUST BE A BIT NOW..."

I am most likely screwed! Damn Box of Cobwebs

I actually enjoyed it more when it sold out quickly, because then the pain was over. This dragging on for an hour or more and giving us a false sense of hope is just cruel.

Same here except now I'm super bummed since I finally made it to the Buy it page...15 minutes after woot claims the last one was sold. Dragging it out just makes coming out of it empty handed that much harder.

Darvell wrote:LOL. I'm in Utah.

If you check the stats, Utah generally gets LOTS of Woots, Woot Off or not. We often got the most Wooters Wooting!

In Utah as well and got one back to back yaaa me and most of Utah has higher speed internet than most parts of the country. I’m not sure why. I know around the SLC area is the testing area for new equipment and protocols for a lot of companies so that maybe why.

First Box of Cobwebs Yea! Woot! Woot!

Okay after using their Google custom search, it's apparent they just name these things "Bag of Ćrap," "Random Crap," and even "Bag O' Crap" whenever they please. I'm just trying to find a pattern wherever I can haha. So this is my 6th crap, 1st "Bag of Ćrap!"

It told me that my order was processing and I thought I had it. I have been a loyal wooter for nearly 6 years but now I am done. I have not gotten a single Bucket of Candycorn in 6 years. I am telling everyone I know not to use woot and I am furious. Goodbye, Woot.

Yeah, but my Comcast in SLC is so slow. Seems like everyone one has Comcast here.

That's not allowed by the CC companies. If a site did that and was hacked...

2 year Wootiversary on October 27th, never managed to get a Box of Cobwebs Just sayin', I'm starting to believe the myth theory.

I got my very 1st bag-o-crap i have been wooing since feb! I hope to get one again... Is it bad i am hopping for a pallet of Prussian rugs and a tablet LOL dream big or don't dream at all

Thanks for offering so many Bodybuilders of Crete this round!

You should use paypal - all you need to add is your woot password and it stores everything else for you.

sainttess wrote:I think I can see why you're in marriage counseling...

I'm in marriage counseling because I was an booooo and haven't been treating my wife right for the past year.

This Woot-off is going to require additional therapy. Maybe even anti-depressants.

Got to click the gold button on the order form . But checked my account after they restored and "NO CRAP"|
