I TOLD you all that it was coming in the last item forum...I said I smelt it. Just like how I predicted this wootoff 30 minutes before it started in the forum for the item that day!

Funny trick showing it as sold out. Denied at processing. Another 500 sold, so presumably there will be more chances.

That was a quick one. Congrats to all who scored this time around. I'm loving the new format!

I rocked it with the Command R :-) But yes, I was dismayed at first - might've shed a tear or two...but perseverance won out in the end, and I scored Bunch of Carrots number 3!

While it was processing my order, the Bag sold out. My order came back rejected after processing because it sold out. Hopefully there will be another Bag before the day is over and I can try again.

I'm pissed. There's nothing wrong with my Paypal account. The backing CC is still valid, the payment authorization is still valid. Woot just isn't able to handle PP accounts during a Bee Oh See, I suppose. Just stupid - why even offer the option if it's not going to work?

It should deny you if you try to order again.

You'll probably get two answers for the community:

"Heck no! Buy 'em if you can get 'em!!"

and

"It sure would be classy if you stayed out of the next sale, having already procured a Bunnies Ogling Carrots and everything..."

Can you guess which of these two responses won a Bunnies Ogling Carrots today?...

I was tricked and got nothing, but I have to say, it really did make me laugh. It's nice that they are spicing things up.

It's still the same sale item so you won't be able to even if you're fast enough.

Remember last woot off when they put only one item in between two craps...

I had a cool signature, but then I took an arrow to the knee!

Did the refresh thing too, got to order is processing, then sold out.....sigh.... That really did go fast. I am still amazed at the "Bot Hatred" out there, though.

okay, cigarette is smoked.
now can focus enough to say that this time (only time) I scored the Bunnies Ogling Carrots was from seeing it on my facebook feed!

no auto-buy program, (though I have tried them),
just plain old luck today.

I bought a lottery ticket yesterday, hope I haven't used all of my luck up for the day yet.

I, like many others, saw it was sold out, then suddenly it wasn't, got to the order processing screen but sadly the crap was not sold to me... so bloody close

Yay! Got my first ever Bilious Old Curmudgeon, and easily too. I was refreshing, waiting for the vacuum to sell out, and when the Bunnies Ogling Carrots came up "sold out", I assumed that I missed it somehow. I actually did wonder if it could somehow come up as sold out before it was actually gone, because it was gone so quickly. Kept refreshing, mainly to see what was next, and just in case, and suddenly it wasn't sold out and I got one, without the old server errors, etc.

If this is the new "system", I can't complain. :-)

I had a similar experience and was able to get a bag this time too. I find it all very confusing but in a happy, baggish sort of way.

Well, isn't that special...

Same as everyone else. Saw that it was sold out, didn't want to believe it so I kept refreshing. Been trying to get my hands on a Bunnies Ogling Carrots for years and this is my second in a row. I love the way Woot is doing this now with multiple sacks throughout the woot-off. Thank you Woot!!

After five years of trying I finally scored a beautiful bag of my very own. I might pick up a lottery ticket on the way home from work. Is it wrong to leave work early to celebrate?

You will probably have more chances. There were an additional 500 bags sold this go around, for a total of 1001 sold. They usually have about 2500 bags, so I expect there will be three more offerings.

Keep your F5 finger nimble!

Interesting...

As soon as the page opened (after I clicked the link from the mywoot.net pop-up window), it was showing Sold Out, so I went to the Community page to see how many more had sold and it was still showing 501.

Hmmm... that's not right.

So I kept hitting F5 on the Sold Out page and after a dozen or so times, I got the I Want One button, which lead to my latest Barrel of Creosote.

I don't know if this was a server error or a planned thing to filter out those who jumped too quickly and gave up. Either way, I'm liking the way that woot! has been distributing Bunnies Ogling Carrots the last two months (easy for me to say, since I've been successful both months, but even if I hadn't been, I think I'd like the new ways.)
