8x Texas Air
1x Neat-Oh picnic basket
2x Star Wars Episode II film cell
2x mini tripod
1x Omnitech GPS!! - Box was taped to all heck; I wasn't sure it'd be in there... but it was! Looks slightly used... was missing a charger, but it's micro USB no no biggie there. Also no documentation to speak of. Came with 1GB SD.

It appears to be working... but I'm not certain yet.

Shipping weight never changed from 1 lb for me. The label even said 1 lb "actual weight"

The GPS works! I've also learned that it is apparently very "hackable" for loading other GPS programs onto it. This is my 4th crap (first in the last 3 years tho) and is by far the BEST! Thanks woot!

I've wondered that also. I'd fear for my safety as angry wooters with pitchforks got organized.

VERY cool!! Glad the GPS is working...I am super excited to be getting mine today (my 3rd) and my husband has his 1st coming!!

I noticed that my newly wooted HDMI cables arrived and the shipping label had no mention to the box contents. First time I've noticed this and a welcome change.

My package will probably show up some time tomorrow. I'm not expecting much (1.7 lbs), but seeing as no one posted about getting a letter yet, my chances have improved! :P

Well I would welcome them...I am sure you would be leader...I would be waiting with hot coca, and brownies....lol hehehehe

I keep checking the neighbors mailbox to see if the flag is down, and I keep checking my doorstep to see if it is full of boxes. I even cleared off the front step for him...

VERY COOL!!! That is awesome...I really hope all the boxes stop listing the contents...

Cool dog. I have a bull mastiff that is probably about the same size (or used to be).

Thanks!
Yeah, he's bigger now. I'm struggling to find recent pictures. Which is annoying since I have tons somewhere.

I've never had to sign for a woot box. I actually think the mailman just punts them toward the house from the road.

Yeah I got one of those Omnitech GPS' in a Bowl of Cereal about two months ago. It's freakin' awesome. And yes it's very hackable, but even in its default stage it works very well!

Nope, I have never had to sign for any woot box...mail man just leaves them on the door step (sometimes knocks or rings the doorbell) and goes back to his car and takes off!

I call foul

I got a HSM clock, a fleece baby blanket (because I'm 19 and really need one :p), and a camera bag I got 2 boxes ago.

That's pretty crappy.

Aye sir; I would contend that our broken old clippers are of the same caliber: craptastic.

Here's to better carp for the two of us the next time around! HUZZAH!

Maybe your mail carrier is just lazy. That was happening to me for a while, she stopped even attempting delivery of packages to my apartment. All she ever did for a while was leave notices in my mailbox. I thought this was strange when I was home all day and got a notice. When I went to pick up that particular Bowl of Cereal the next day, they gave me another package as well that was supposedly out for delivery. At least in my town, the mail carrier is required to attempt delivery, so I called and complained, and now all my packages are delivered, no more driving to the post office every week.

Carp! Just checked the FedEx update and while my ball of crud is in the State, it's now going to take an extra day to be delivered. It's gained an ounce and it is in the 8.14 square shaped box.

As far as my crap goes, it left New Berlin at 7:11 am on Saturday, no updates since. Probably not going to get here before my long weekend. I'll probably have to wait until Sunday to open it, unless they speed things up.

Is there anyone here who turned the HS Musical clock into the Woot clock? I can't find the thread where the "how to" was posted.
And am I correct in saying that Woot sends out two different HSM clocks? I got the wall clock and want to convert it to the Woot clock.

Is the package going to your home or business? When I ship the Bowl of Cereal to my house, the postman will leave it at the door. If I sent it to my office, and it tries to deliver on Saturday (most of them have!), the postman will not leave it. I'd guess there are different rules for home delivery and business delivery.

kayboss wrote:Update...on the baggies

Okay so my baggies and my husbands have finally made it to the post office and have been sorted and are...

OUT
FOR
DELIVERY

TODAY!!!!!!!!

Mine too!!! I have to wait until I get home at 7:30 to open it though. Good luck with your crap!

Just received and opened my Book of Crap.

It shipped as 3.1lbs and, thanks to the trowel, it probably was:

2x Pinnacle Studios XL T-Shirts
1x American Tourister Camera Bag
1x Culinary Tech Med. Silicone Spatula, pink with wooden handle
1x Corona Stainless Steel HT61140 Transplanter Trowel
1x Kids Ear Grips Ear Warmers, blue

It was certainly worth the $8, but I'm hoping my next Book of Crap has something for me. =)

Here's a recap from Saturday as I was too busy over the weekend dealing with computer hell.

The Mailman approaches...



But wait! What's that under his arm?



A Woot! box!

Random Crap. Woot! tested, Kitty approved.



And the haul, in all it's craptacular crappiness.



1x Picnic Basket
1x Pinnacle Drawstring Bag
1x American Tourester Camera Bag
1x Reusable Coffee Filter

Hope that helps. I gave it a bacon rasher so it'll be easier to find next time... hopefully.

Thanks TT!
Mine is a different clock but hubby says he thinks he can do something creatively Wootie to it.

They are HERE!!!!

But I am going to be good and wait for the hubby to come home for lunch to open them...



Mine is the smaller one on top, and the hubbys is the bigger bottom one....

While you wait, here's a hummingbird nest you can watch. It had two eggs and one hatched yesterday. I'm waiting to see if the other hatches today.

I swear I should stop reading this thread.

I fear mine will be pathetically impotent, though I'm excited about wootalyzing my clock (if I get one)!

Kinda hoping for one, now.

You = Awesomeness Defined.

Like I said, I'm hoping to get a freakin' clock now.

Sansa? Pffffft. Gimme the clock! (PLEASE make the "L" sound in that word, otherwise...well...

nm.

Ugh. Myfedex finally updated, it is about 10 miles from my house but I won't get it for an extra day. No change in the 3.6#, 10.6" cubed. This is seriously KILLING me!!

Ugh mine left Northborough, MA just after midnight (51 miles away) and it still hasn't been updated since. What? Is the driver only driving 5 miles per hour? LOL

Mine left at 8pm last night from New Berlin...I could have driven down there and back before I went to bed last night!

Antici.....pation is killing me here!

You never know what your going to get!! I got one of the HSM ones in the last one, I just might have to see about wootalyzing it as well!

I haven't seen anyone get the Camp Rock one this time 'round, but that would be so cool to do!

Anyone have a really large image of the bag? Woot Logo?

Even better...anyone know what font they use?! :D
