Well, I'm fairly certain I'm the only one who didn't get a single Breo watch. My gorgeous 12.0 lb crapfest:

-Atari flashback 2 system (Comes with Tanks game, at least.)
-Animal Planet lioness and cub (stuffed and adorable)
-K'nex rollercoaster
-Recycled flower bag
-15 bags of Texas air, breathed in fond memory of my home state.

I ask because my Box of Cobwebs came with:

7 x Texas Air
2 x Breo Red watches
1 x USB Lighted Mirror
1 x Gwen's Nest Tote Bag



that is all...

so is that 2 Craps and a bag?

or 3 craps and a bag?




I emailed them, and they said "It does sound as though you were shorted one item in your Box of Cobwebs order. We can attempt to have a replacement Box of Cobwebs sent out to you but we will need you to confirm your shipping address by providing it to us to do so. I apologize for the inconvenience!"

Woot you always do right by your users!

Keep up the good work!

I count 3 craps and a bag. Doesn't sound like you were shorted.

I think I might win the most random crap award for this one...

The box originally checked in at 4.8 lbs, then right before it was delivered shrunk down to 2.6 lbs.

7 bags of Texas air
1 USB Lighted Mirror
2 Breo Skin Watches (yellow)
3 loose (and used) Golf Balls, complete with stains
1 Orange & Pink Flower bag

And finally...

1 Sony DVDirect Express VRDP1 Multi-Function DVD Writer for Sony Handycam Camcorders with USB interface (Refurbished)

I have no use for the Sony DVDirect DVD Writer thing, if anyone has a Handycam and would like to offer something in trade, I'm all ears.

The watches are perfect timing, as my watch broke this weekend.

All told, it's nice to see the ol Bucket of Candycorn return to it's former crappy glory this time around, somewhat.

Fnord.

My 8.3 box weighed in at 6.4 pounds on my own scale. Maybe they have a different gravity constant in Texas. I think their calendar is off, too, because mine arrived a day early from the original delivery date and two days early from the "updated" delivery date.

Anyway, here's what I got:

6x Puffy Texas Clouds (all full of hot Texas air, yay!)
4x Yellow 20cm Breo Watches
1x Yellow recycle bag with pink flower on it
1x 5-piece Lock-n-Lock Food-to-Go food container set, clear green (like Tupperware)

That's it! The lock-n-lock set actually looks pretty good and will be useful, think. I also didn't see that anybody else has posted this item, but maybe I missed it. Here's a link to a picture of it:

5-pc Lock-n-Lock Food-to-Go Container Set

WAIT: Does that only count as two craps??

I got standard crap in my 3.2 lb including the watches, some kids kit thing, usb mirror, etc...

One interesting item is the tote bag I got, which is a mini-version of a tote bag I got in my last Box of Cobwebs

I also want to add that, although the USB mirror is a product of the crappiest kind, the USB extension cord that came with it is excellent!

Thanks Woot!

My very first Box of Cobwebs

Below is the ceremonial opening using my Skil utility blade purchased during the last Woot-Off.

Many thanks to my camera man LEM (yes that LEM from the smartpost primer)

Here is the rundown of my crap:
1x woot box (delivered one day early)
(2.9 lbs - 14.2 in. x 10.5 in. x 8.6 in.)
8x bags of air - 1 was flat
1x USB mirror (not sure how civilization has survived so long without this item)
1x rust colored short sleeve polo (size L)
5x Breo skin watches (3 red, 1 white, 1 purple)
1x recycled tote

Other than that Woot thinks I am an 8 year old girl, this was crap-tastic, to say the least!

Thanks woot?

What is it with you guys? Each watch comes individually, correct? I count 5 craps and a bag..

Is it a laptop heat absorbing lap mat? I got a couple of these in a crapfest last spring and they are great. Woot gods always seem to know what you need, even when you didn't know you needed what they send you...

I'm guessing the Breo watches were used as a 2 for Tuesday item. So each 2 watches counts as one crap. Four watches equals 2 craps.

Got mine today, exactly when Fedex predicted...

5x bags of sweet, sweet Texas air
1x USB mirror
2x Breo skin watches (red)
1x recycled tote
1x cy fi Wireless Sports Speaker for iPod/iPhone (http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=17374)

I guess that means the Woot gods want me to get an iPhone instead of another Droid next week??

Not bad for my first ever Bucket of Candycorn!

That looks like a laptop cooling/heat diffusing pad. I have one. I really like it. When its cool it feels like there are crystals inside. when it gets warmed up by the laptop, it turns into a paste/gel.

I win! Now, does that mean you will send me that nifty bag you received from woot? I am most certainly envious. Maybe I will have a nice bag in our 18 lbs baggie (it will be a great haul, I am sure, cause I promised to give it to my son for his birthday).

Mine arrived today:
2x Breo Skin watches (one red, one yellow)
1x Dream Cheeky lighted USB mirror (utterly useless, but came with a nice USB extension cable)
1x Overlord Cross-Country remote control toy pickup (The manuals in the box were for a Pureguardian ultrasonic humidifier. Also, the truck doesn't work.)
1x Gwen's Nest small tote bag (green floral print on black)

Altogether very craptastic. I'm a little upset at getting a broken toy, because my kid helped me open the box and was so excited to see it only to get disappointed. Otherwise it was a great experience for my first Box of Cobwebs and I'll certainly be back for the next clickfest hoping to get some of the good stuff!

It has arrived!

5x bags of Texas air
1x recycled tote bag
2x red Breo skin watches
1x USB lighted mirror
1x "Light Minder" expansion receiver (for automated lighting)
1x Bluetooth stereo headset

Thanks for another great round of anticipation, woot! I might get some use out of the headset, the mirror will make a great gag gift, and the automated lighting thing would be cool if I actually bought the receiver.

Looking forward to the next round!

MY FIRST BоC



Yes, that was me indeed behind the camera. So I guess I have to apologize for crappy video with even more crappy sound. Though then again, it was crаp I was shooting, so the video lives up to the standard!

I am now afraid to walk by their house (they live up the block). I'm sure that his wife thinks that all of that Woot addiction is my fault (and I'm afraid that's not that far from actual truth).

She caught the bug too. She was rooting for a Ninja blender. She was really mad that we didn't get the Barbie backpack.

"Maybe next time there will be better stuff" she tells me....Cool, I get to have a "next time".

Ah, so I get to walk by your house with no fear now! That's good! But if she is now a part of the game, you must promptly read a short crаpducation course to her, and be sure to make her learn and respect the commandments. She has violated a couple just now!

Mine came today, pretty standard (5.9 lbs), and a day early!

1 small tote/lunch-ish bag
2 red Breo watches (both work!)
1 Dream Cheeky USB lighted mirror
1 Dunecraft Vegetable Garden kit

and (I haven't seen this yet)

1 box of 36 recycled Bridgestone golf balls!

They had somewhat come out of their box into the bigger box - made for interesting speculation before opening! We don't golf, so I'm not sure what to do with them, except maybe take them to work to offer to clients for their feet....good for massaging the soles if you have plantar fasciitis. Hmm. Kinda cool.

Thanks woot!

So me and two others appear to be the only people who got the woot "?" bag. Wonder if it has any meaning. That would be pretty nice.

I also seem to be the only one who got random railroad set pieces... Strangely enough, I got something for a train set in each of my Box of Cobwebs.

Completely satisfied with the randomness.

Thanks Woot!
