i know right, not only that, but at least for me, it started with my first final, and ended with the last....

Woot! makes their own rules - and they feel no obligation to be consistent.
My "consistent" theory is proven by their changing the "pick 1, 2 or 3 craps" of history, to "order one and get 3" of this fine day.

...or...disproven, because the only thing that is consistent is change...?

I'm still pining for a bag o' carp.

Now that you've spoken I'm sure they'll contact you next time to get your approval before they start.

why does this keep changing carp to carp. Just FYI, for when I post this and it turns from poo into fish...
My original post should read:

i'd drive around with these on my car and woot at people...

I have a question... I see in the picture for the bacon lovers gift pack there is a tube of something... is that bacon flavored chap stick?

I was looking at that fondue set, it looked nice, but unfortunately I had recently bought one.

did not score anything this woot-off, wanted some wireless gadgetry, and a towerless computer, both which appeared multiple times, ironically at the times when I had the exams aforementioned, now I will have to wait until the next woot-off.... :-(

Woot has a lovely filter system -- it's changing your words. Ya get used to it after awhile of being around the forum.

Because Woot! enjoys messing with people on as many levels as possible.

somebody's already posted the lights on Ebay. Currently at $20. Funny.

woot got the woot off lights ! :D Never wanted those ugly monkies but these look awesome! ^^ Now I just need ta get ahold of the woot bucket!

Dang. I wish I would have gotten two of these... Another for a gift... ah well.

Of course you know that just like the monkeys, in a month they'll have them again. The profit margin on them is probably huge.

Ahhh man, I go meet friends for drinks and miss the woot off USB lights - There is no God!!!

Thank goodness for friends who share the woot! love. We went in on a set each and paid for shipping once!

woooooooooooooooooooot!

these are going on our desks at work, so everyone will know when we are unavailable for work.

Awwww, that's what I get for going to a basketball game... I missed the lights AGAIN.

Oh well. I hope woot puts them up again :P

Well, um, that was my plan. Marry a www.usbmicro.com usb device to the set of lights that I _finally_ got (I tried 2 times before) and make a set of lights controlled by the PC. Very easy to do. I thought it would make a fun project.

And for only $***.**!

Thanks Woot, this was alot like Xmas morning...lots of stuff, but that elusive must-have item nowhere to be found under the tree! Crash, burn, disappointment, BUT it was still fun all the same!

The ironic part is now that the woot-off is over, I'm so tired that I CAN'T sleep. llo

Happy New Year all!

Am I the only person in MS to get a set of these? I missed them both times during the woot-off and missed the dang Bandolier of Carrots due to a much needed bathroom break. damnn the luck. Can't wait to see what pops up at midnite.....

Okay - enjoy your break hopeless.... heh heh

Maybe woot will hire some temps to ship all the stuff we bought... and then do another woot-off BEFORE the holidays. Maybe, say, again on Monday? YES ! !

(Hint Hint)

So, I know this is probably a stupid question.

Is it 2 lights in a single order, or just 1?

/apologies if it's been covered.

I'm in MS, got one too, and was wondering the same thing. Doesn't look like they were too popular around these here parts.

Is this the end of the w00t as we know it?

breffizzle wrote:i'd drive around with these on my car and woot at people...

woot woot

Got the lights. I wonder if they'll power off the awesome USB port on the front of my truck stereo?

Can't wait to try them out!
