WOO! PUMPKINS!, am I the only person still waiting? Mine is not scheduled until 10/31, but as it's only 1.8 lbs, I'm not expecting anything too spectacular. Pretty please let there be some magical Halloween craps for me!

Oh, and if anyone wants any universal remote controls, send me a PM because I have a case of them from the last time....

I got my tracking number for my replacement crap (I only got a camping cot and a bag in my box). It is 0.7 pounds and due Friday.

My guess is that it's a couple of Breos and a mousepad.

Will keep y'all updated.

Thank you Woot!



Oh, I also got the "Bluetooth iPad Keyboard and Case" which is awesome because I have an ipad... but...

Did yours come with a cable? Mine doesn't have the USB cable to power the device. I need a photo of it to even try to track one down.

Edit: I found the cable it's one of the USB mini "B" cables. My mom had one for some Logitec device so I'm borrowing that for now. Here's a photo for anyone else that didn't get a cord.



My 5.9 lb Bucket of Candycorn contained:

1 - Big yellow bag with a pink flower on it
1 - Woot "exclamation mark logo" canvas totebag
1 - Dream Cheeky USB lighted mirror
2 - Breo skin watches (yellow)
3 - Used golf balls (3 Bridgestone)
1 - CrystalView Bluetooth iPad Keyboard and Case (missing power cable)

The bluetooth iPad case makes this Bucket of Candycorn awesome. Thanks woot!

I'm considering selling them for a little extra cash and wanna figure out what a fair price would be because the pioneer website lists them at $475 new.



Google price search gave me Amazon market as the cheapest at $99.99, for 8". Buy.com has the 6.5" for $69.99. Interesting that they're the same model number for the two sizes.

2.6 lb Box of Cobwebs contents as reported by my mother - I won't be able to examine it till next week:

2x breo watches, red & purple
1x USB lighted mirror
1x TrueFire Gourmet Cedar Grilling Plank (from my mother's report I can't tell if this is one plank or a package of 12)
1x tote bag (from my mother's report "1 tiny, tiny tote bag (really tiny)")
1x Clickfree automatic backup drive (from my mother's report I can't tell version and capacity of drive - or if it even works)

I'll be one happy camper if the drive actually works. Thanks WOOT!

can't figure out how to add "Contents and Value" to my entry on the spreadsheet at WootSack

I just thought it would be a good time to mention to both you or anyone who received devices lacking cables. A great place to order missing or replacement cables is http://www.monoprice.com/.

I've ordered from them on many occasions and their cables are very good quality at the prices that will make your local Best Buy manager commit a suicide! And the shipping cost is too very reasonable.

Disclamer: I am not in any way affiliated with this site other than being a happy customer and trying to help others in need of cables.

Wouldn't count on it. I was thinking the same thing since mine departed Kansas City (~100 miles away)on the 25th. Now, 36hrs later, it still hasn't checked in anywhere else. I'll be lucky now if it even arrives on time by the time USPS sorts it, and that's assuming it even gets there today.

It appears that the Courier (from Fallout New Vegas) is the one carrying my package as he is clearly on foot. I my mind I see him walking down the road into the twilight sky with the box on one shoulder and the theme from the Incredible Hulk playing.

The shipment scanned in leaving Southhaven, MS (right across the state line from Memphis) at 11:50 pm on Tuesday. At 12:18 pm it showed en route to Nashville. That's only about 200 miles and still nothing after 20 hours.

If you are looking for that cord online it is probably more commonly found as a "micro USB" cable. It seems like it is becoming more of the universal cord for most smartphones etc. so you should be able to get it really cheap.

OK, yesterday I lied. Apparently in transit is not the same as out for delivery. Today it is out for delivery and is probably sitting on my front step (in the rain) as I type.

Got my 5.2 lb package yesterday.

2x White Breo Watches 20cm ( 1 with a dead battery)
1X Little Labs Animals Experiment Kit
1X Cheeky Pink USB Mirror
1X Barbie Baywatch Back Pack
1x Foot Flush
1x Math Algebra software (grades 6-9)
6x bags of Texas air (2x empty)
1x led lighted mirror

Apparently you shouldn't count your crap before it appears. I was actually hoping for one of the storybook readers, a recycled tote, or the grow your own veggies kits!

If I didn't get a bag, does that mean I just got crap, not a Bucket of Candycorn? ;)

I am perplexed by the counting of the craps.

Are some items not counted as one of the three craps?
i.e. Recycled totes?

Are duplicate items counted as one?

If you received less than the three promised craps are you entitled to a replacement third?

*edit* My original assumption is "no" to all three of these questions, but the amount of people counting makes me question my assumptions.

I believe that the totes are not being counted as "crap", since it seems they replaced the brown paper sack that is normally the proverbial "bag" wherein the "crap" is contained. The Breo watches, from what I've been understanding were a 2-for Tuesday item, meaning two of them count as one crap, four as two, and so on. This last point, however, it seems is the subject of debate. Some are of the opinion that for an item to count as a crap, it must be unique from all the other craps in your bag.

Personally, any crap I get, regardless of quantity, shall make me happy. (Provided it ever gets here!)

3 craps and a bag. Sometimes the bag is a paper bag, sometimes it's a tote, sometimes it's a fancy handbag covered with beads, but it doesn't count as one of the craps. I think the counting of duplicates is an inconsistent thing. I think people have argued their cases and the rulings have gone both ways, but if you don't get 3 craps, you email woot, and they agree with you, then yes, people report having more crap sent to get to 3. ...but it's far more common for people to get more than 3 craps anyway.

Still waiting for mine- only 2.3 lbs, which is disappointing- but I'm holding out hopes that that is simply because there's a Woot letter inside.

Woooohooooo!! Just as I had given up hope of receiving it a day early, they update my tracking to show it had actually arrived at the local post office at 4 a.m. and is currently out for delivery. Hopefully it will await me when I come home for lunch.

Does anyone know if it comes with your regular mailman, or do they send out a separate truck with Smartpost packages?

Got mine today, definitely crappy.:P 1.6lbs. Two breo watches, a smashed RC helicopter, a floral print shopping bag and a USB lighted mirror. :P

Might have been able to use the heli, but it's smashed to bits. Oh, and seven bags of air. And one of the watches is DOA. :P But hey, it's crap, right?

So if FedEx shows that it arrived at the post office facility at 8:01 and is out for delivery as of 8:58 this morning then that means that I SHOULD get it today? And it's raining! Drat! Guess I'm going to have to make a special trip home in a couple of hours and see if it showed up or if I need to go to the post office and pick it up.

So excited! I'm about to lose my Box of Cobwebs virginity!

Mine came yesterday... I got a few items different from most, so I'm happy:

1 x Large flower tote
1 x small patterned bag (2 bags!)
2 x yellow breo watches
1 x Pro Caulk complete caulking kit
1 x "Forbidden Future" wootshirt, size S

This makes 4 watches as I have 2 (pink) from the previous box. My wife likes the breo watches so all is good.

Thanks, woot!
