Mine still says 1.0 lb/.5 kg with no size, so i am hoping that is still a placeholder... due on 1/4 in ny though.

Monday is an observed postal holiday. We will have to wait an extra day for crap updates.

The suspense builds....

Huh, I didn't realize that but I checked and there it was. Suspense and anticipation is good in healthy doses though, right ?

Cubed just means that the dimensions are an approximation based on weight. You didn't really think that Fedex measured the box with a caliper accurate to 0.01", did you?

Well, all boxes are never exactly on the inch, so why not say it's 9 x 9 x 9? I'm just asking bc it's in a square box and not irregular does that mean a better chance at good stuff?

Question:
I still haven't received a confirmation email for my sack of crap. I am able to access the tracking number through my order history, no prob. I ordered the electric throw a few days later and received emails from woot, so I know they have the right email info.

I'm kind of hurt to find out a few of you have received 2 crap confirmation letters, while I have none. Was it something I said after that third egg nog on Christmas eve?

I hate to be Captain Obvious, but did you check your spam/junk folders?

(Woot emails sometimes are funny for me... I get their daily Woot Daily Digest emails... sometimes I get them normal, and then other days they wind up in my spam. No rhyme or reason...)

It never ceases to amaze me how certain wooters are convinced there is some kind of algorithm to predict the Boob of Cleopatras content. It is the quest for the Holy Grail.

WHAT....is your favourite colour?

Nope. You have the same chance as the rest of us.

And from previous Burgandy Olfactory Center#39;s, the cubed box measurements provided by FedEx usually turn out to be anything but cubed.

Another bag, another pile of dollar-store reject items that Amazon explicitly purchased for the almost-all-the-same bags as opposed to actually sending stuff that was laying around the warehouse like Woot used to do when they were independent.

I do believe there will be slightly less competition for bags going forward, as my household will be skipping them. They're never worth the 8 bucks anymore, and there's no suspense as to what's in them - I can just stop by here a few days after the bag is sold to find out what I would have received, no mystery. Takes the fun out of it, since there's no journey anymore.

Oh, as to the contents: There were 2 bags to our household this time around, and both mine and my girlfriend's bag contained:

Pop-up sprinklers
Reusable shopping bags (just like every bag we've gotten for the last year or so)
A T-Shirt (S)
A box of shrinky dinks
and some makeup.

The only difference between the 2 was the styule of the bags.

I'm hoping for some XXL tshirts otherwise if they are L or XL the wife gets them.

Someone stole my Burgandy Olfactory Center achievement banner... :/



Well, considering "Achievement" is spelled wrong in the image, it serves them right for stealing it!

Mine says that too, and is scheduled to be delivered in 3 days, but is still in placeholder mode...like Tom Petty says: "The Waiting..."

Have you guys played the weight game yet? Those of you who have done this correct me if I'm wrong.

Google your weight and it will tell you what you might be getting....Last time, according to Google, I was getting 3 lbs of some fancy french cow brains in my box...

It was wrong, thank God...

I went to sign up for fedEx, and found out I already had one!

I have no idea why, but they were still more than happy to let me sign up for another and take my CC info before telling me that!
