Oh no!!! That means they will have 2 less sales in the next 3 years. THE HORROR!!!!!!

Pretty specific that you get a bag and three crappy items, not a bag which may be one of the crappy items.

Well its rather obvious that a bag does not have to be a bag to count as a bag, (buckets) for example. Furthermore, they may say you didn't get your bag and ship you a paper or plastic bag. Since the jones thing can be a case not a bag lol. Either way, pulling teeth over a bag, your call.

But some of us didn't get a third or even second item. What about them?

draigun wrote:But some of us didn't get a third or even second item. What about them?

Yet again, that is the customers choice. I as well only received 2 items, a book and woot lights, but I opted to email them simply asking them to take better care with future epic adventure orders since it shouldn't be to hard to add the correct item count. I also specified that their was no reason for them to spend the shipping to send me the missing item(s) / bag as it was just a mistake and I can understand them being busy to a degree.

Got my bag today, 7.9 lbs which contained:

- 1 Winnie the pooh toothbrush holder
- 1 pair red and blue woot lights
- 4 Jr slinky
- 5 packages of Christmas cards
- 1 Neat receipts digital scanning system (returned but appears complete).

No bag, but oh well.

Thanks woot!

Silly FedEx, taking 2 days to get from Dallas to New Berlin, and now another 2 from New Berlin to Grove City (or at least I assume that's where it's going since I live in Ohio).

I guess this is what happens when your first hernia is overweight. Oh well, I hope it's not working too hard or it might lose weight!

If ever you feel like you didn't get the item(s) that you ordered, contact service@woot.com. This does not work if you got the right number of items but you just don't like them. See those nifty commandments.

Thanks so much for the update! I wasn't sure, but I'd already sent an e-mail. Just good to hear this confirmed.

Thank you, trekmiss, for identifying it for me.

Sorry to disappoint you, but my son stole it as soon as he saw it today since I opened my bag in the middle of the night while he was asleep. Haha.

Also, I was able to get the other light to spin so I now have a working set. Woohoo!!
Love ya Woot for all the fun.

I'm really disappointed in the attitude of people who don't like their Box of Chocolates. It's not always going to be big screen televisions or awesome steals-of-deals. It's a grabbag and it's luck of the draw. Plus, it literally says it's cr@p in the title.

We should be happy that we got the bragging rights to have said AdventureCrap.

Besides, I'm really digging my Jonas Bros Accessory Bag - it holds my Flip video camera great and the mini tripod has already gotten use earlier during a fundraiser I went to with my camera today.

Thanks Woot. I'm very happy with my $8 investment.

My Screaming Glow-in-the-Dark Monkeys with Woot Capes went from DALLAS, TX. to NEW BERLIN, WI.

I guess they decided to see the USA in a FedEx truck on the way to Calfornia.

1 x Red and Blue Flashing AMBA LAMPS (Woot! Lights)
1 x Mini Camera Tripod (extends to 6"!)
1 x Jonas Brothers Phone/Camera Case (YES! more Disney stuff)
1 x Pirates of the Caribbean Directors Software


Thanks woot! I'll keep trying one day the woot gods will be nice to me and send me a goodie

I got 5 High School Musical Wall clocks and 2 Winnie the Poohs

So funny story- my package came for me yesterday and I was doing some work on my yard when the mailman came with a woot! box in his hand. I was pretty happy it came a day early and I asked the mailman if he knew what it was.

This was the conversation we had:
Me: Do you know what this is? It's like a grab bag kind of whe.....
Mailman: Oh yeah, the bag of sh*t?
Me: You know what it is?
Mailman: Yeah, I post.
Me: Oh, okay. Well have a nice day...
Mailman: You too.

Inside the "BoS" was:

1 - Dirty Jobs shirt (Large, I think-PM me if you'd like it)
1 - iPod speaker (I promptly gave it to my sister)
1 - Jonas Brothers accessory pouch (I gave it to my sister's friend who was at the opening)
1 - Woot OFF light (5 and counting!)

What was the weight?

marshcat56 wrote:What was the weight?

Fedex gave a weight of 9.5 pounds and dimensions of 14.7x14.7x14.7. The actual dimensions were 24x12x12

Mine came in yesterday.

I got the slinky jr, two mini tripods, the babby blanket, and police lights that are a lot quieter than my old amber woot-off lights.

5 things, but nothing bag-like, for the people on the last couple pages debating such a thing. Feeling relatively fortunate though, given some other descriptions I've read here.

I plugged my Sansa Fuze into the speakers after opening my epic adventure. As they are unpowered I figured it would simply work or not. Even if it short circuited I happen to know of an online store that sells refurb Sansas pretty frequently. Anyway, it did nothing. The Sansa is fine & recharging right now. The fit is tight & the socket could be damaged so don't bother trying it again.

SO. As to these lushlife minidocks, has anyone tried one with a Sansa? Everything I've found seems to indicate they don't work together, but I don't trust apple, so I'm still wondering. That could actually make the bag worth it if it could work with my woot-gained Sansa.

anyone actually tried it?

Haha, that's funny. I am fairly sure my mail carriers know what they are, too. The mailman for my home is older (almost retired) and I'm positive he looks a bit grumpier when he delivers it compared to my other packages. The mailman for my office is younger (by comparison) and he has a look that says "congratulations, you got another one!" Maybe I should ask him sometime if he's familiar with the epic adventure. Then again, I would then live in fear that he'd open it once he learns of the greatness it contains, lol.

I suppose the older mailman might just be annoyed from having to deliver a package that is labeled "RANDOM CRAP" -- he might not know what it really is. ;)

Hey-I'm thrilled!

In my 8.5lb box....
Got red/blue woot lights (got lots of yellows, these are right purdy...)
Winnie the Pooh musical toothbrush holder(which my postman said was singing to him all morning...)
5 boxes of Christmas cards (does that mean I have to send cards this year???)
and the pièce de résistance...
a swell ipod deck/mini boombox, that just happens to be on sale in the Target ad this week for $39.99.

Immediately put it to work while at work today--unplugged my ipod from the speakers with the loose connection and, voila, no more scratchy music!!!

Thanks Woot!! Best out of 3 BOCs I've been fortunate enough to buy over the past few years!

Thank You Woot Gods for shining your favor upon us!!!

This is the same as mine. Fedex weight says 1.4 for me.

Mine came yesterday, and absolutely no one will be amazed by the contents:
1 small Impostor shirt w/cut tags
1 mini tripod
1 pink miniDock
1 Fact or hernia calendar
and 1 Jonas Brothers bag

That being said, it's an honor and a joy just to play....

Hmm, my epic adventure was quite adventurous

1 Red/Blue woot lights (The red lightbulb is broken btw..so it just spins)
4 packs of those christmas cards
2 little slinkys
High School Musical Wall Clock (At least the box has a picture of some naked girl...except she decided to wear clothes this time)

Needless to say I was hoping my first hernia would be slightly less hernia.

Mine came today in CA. Same here except I received Woot lights instead of the tripod. First time I've been able to snag a BO C and it's illuded me many times. Nothing remotely usable for me. Really is C R A P.

If anyone wants the child sized shirt or anything else for that matter, private me and I'd be happy to give it to a loving home.

Yes, I copied and pasted another persons list... since mine was one of the generics... no pic this time. ;-)

Thanks! Looks like I'll be asking my Apple friends if any of them likes pink legos...

14 epic adventure's later, and me and the wife keep going back for more.

With an attitude like that, you'll never get an ipod, or a laptop, or a ps3, or an xbox 360, or a letter, or 768 action figures.

That's ok. More hernia for us.

Yay, adventure!!!

My hernia arrived! 6.4 lbs(up .5 lbs from the shipping notice)
and inside was

• 27 Bags of texas air.
  
• 1 Grimace insides t-shirt (large)
  
• 1 weird frying pan with a curve in the skillet for something a lot more lightweight then it looks
  
• 1 pink iPod speaker dock
  
• 1 Stars attack of the clones film cell
  
• 1 pair of working woot off usb spinning lights
  
• 1 collapsable picnic bag
  
• 1 very satisfied wooter!
  

My 1.5lb hernia arrived yesterday.

No pics since it's the same as what's already been posted.

1x Lego Brick iPod Speaker
1x Jonas Brothers Bag
1x Woot-Off Lights
1x Woot Shirt: Impostor (Bunny pretending to be Penguin)
No tag, but looks like an XL or XXL.

Anyone with a S or M shirt want to trade?

I received my adventure hernia yesterday. I got the following:



1 small shirt
1 Jonas brothers bag
2 lego ipod docks
1 set woot lights

happy to have scored one!

1.3 pound box arrived *3* days early yesterday!

No pics since it's one of the standard ones already posted with pics:

Jonas brothers bag - my niece will love the little hook for the bag to carry it around with!

Police Woot lights - to go along with the amber ones my brother gave me and very nice colors

cheap mini tripod - already have one of the flexible ones, but it's a nice gift

Disney Pirates cd for a camera I don't have - was hoping for a mini slinky to give my niece since her plastic one is all twisted and about to break

Second one after numerous waiting lists and hope to luck out again in the future! Too bad my wife still doesn't understand how it's worth the $8 of entertainment, but I'll just sit here with all 4 of my Woot lights spinning by my computer a the next Wootoff!

There was a very satisfied wooter in your epic adventure...I want one

Got my bag of adventure Mini slinky, 3x Penquin t-shirt ,Jonas brothers camera case,woot off lights, now the true adventure begins...recrapping this to my friends.....or otherwise known as regifting to some.....

I'm PISSED I didn't get any Texas Air!

Oh, wait, I've got tons of Texas Air from other stuff...guess I didn't NEED any in my hernia box, but IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE!

I am SO done with Woot! All I wanted was a little refreshing Texas Air, really, was that TOO MUCH TO ask? Seriously! Done, never, ever again will I buy anything from Woot again!






Well...till tomorrow probably! oh, and the next woot off! And hopefully the next Random hernia! lol!
