Didn't until you said something, but did anyone notice all the things you could get on that site?!? Crazy, people are crazy!

My Bucket of Cats has arrived. There was a moment of total dejection this morning at 8:15, when the shipment was handed off to USPS and I was told to "Allow one to two additional days for delivery" ---- aaaaaahhh!

But it came today regardless. My haul?

• 1 Pinnacle Studio t-shirt (what is this, anyway?)
  
• 1 High School Musical decal wall clock - how did Woot know what I would be sure to call crap?
  
• 1 Robert Gallery Gladiators of the Gridiron action figure
  
• 1 folding picnic basket
  
• 1 set of kid-sized ear muffs - guess the other kid will be going commando next winter
  
• 1 American Tourister camera bag which fits perfectly
  
• 1 Barska 10x25 binoculars
  
• 0 (zero) bags of Texas air. Odd, that, I think I'll have to contact Woot
  

box started talking and singing to the mail man as he was carrying it.
Pooh singing toothbrush holder
pinacle shirt
camera bag
crappy pinnacle bag.


my buckets always suck.

USPS redelivered the package. They weren't kidding when they said it was damaged. AFAIK, though, nothing is missing.

Contents:
2x XL Pinnacle shirts
1x Picnic Basket
1x replacement Roomba brush
1x American Tourister camera bag
1x demolished Leap Frog Crammer box with slightly banged up and possibly non-functional Crammer device.

1x slinky jr
+
1x baby fleece blanket
+
1x camera bag
+
1x used 80gb WD hard drive (will test tomorrow)
================== =
A decent haul if the WD works!

delivered on Sat. estimated was for tomorrow.

i live in an apartment complex. for some reason, the post office decided to not deliver to the office anymore (or the office said no deliveries)

and i have the weekends booked for the previous 2 and the next 2 weekends. The post office opens 1.5 hrs before i have to be at work (it's about a 20 min commute) and closes right when work lets out. it's a pain.

My 7 lb Bowl of Cereal contained:
-10 bags of AirSpeed inflatable packaging by Pregis
-2 Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones limited edition filmcell plaques (495 and 497 out of 1000)
-2 mini camera tripods
-1 Samsung bluetooth headset (new in box)
-1 iHome wireless laser netbook mouse (also new in box)
-2 of those foldout picnic basket thingies

I am pleased.

Got my Bowl of Cereal today. Nothing really impressive, but not a bad haul. I got exactly three craps, which from my experience is unusual.

1 X Pinnacle Studio 12 nylon backpack/bag thingie

1 X small American Tourister camera bag

1 X foldable picnic basket

And a few bags of Texas air.

Contact woot.

3 crappy items AND a bag of some sort. You were shorted.

Wait, do the bags of air not count as a bag?

mikeschrad wrote:Wait, do the bags of air not count as a bag?

This is true. I believe a woot staff member has verified this as well. At least I think someone got a replacement because of that. I have yet to be shorted, so no personal experience.

The box/texas air are packing materials, not items.

I am going stir crazy waiting for any kind of an update on my box. There has still not been any updates since Saturday at 7:11 a.m. saying it departed New Berlin, WI. However, this is the first I have seen anyone post anything about one that is around my weight 6.5 lbs.

Yeah, I'm dying over here too. Mine says "Departed New Berlin"...and it takes a freakin' hour or less to get here, so I don't know if that means the driver died, or what...

edit: Ok, so maybe a little longer than an hour if they don't drive like me.

mikeschrad wrote:Wait, do the bags of air not count as a bag?

According to the communique (email) I received from the Woot Gods, bags of air are not considered items. They are, in fact, packing items. It is only through the exuberance of us Wooters that the packing material have become called "Bags of Air."

Straight from the mouth of the Gods!

Hubby successfully Wootalyzed my HS Musical clock while I was out running errands. I'd post a picture but don't have a public place to stash one. He had a difficult time sizing the Woot clock jpeg. And then found out this clock does not come apart. Being tricky he printed the face on card stock, loosened the nut that holds the hands tight, slit the new face with a razor, then slide it over the old face. Did not even need glue and the slit is almost undetectable.

Mine left New Berlin at about the same time. I just checked and it just arrived in Indianapolis about a minute ago. Estimated delivery date has been pushed back a day now . I don't think there is any chance of getting it before I leave for a long weekend Wednesday night.

Edit: After looking at my three most recent bags before this, they were all delivered two days after arriving in Indy, so there may still be hope!

Hmmm, what about picnic baskets? Maybe any sort of container qualifies.

mikeschrad wrote:Wait, do the bags of air not count as a bag?

As far as an official word, I do not believe Woot has ever said. However, the general consensus appears to be "no" because it is packing material and not actually an item that would ever be considered a normal purchase. Additionally, I've never seen a report of Woot Customer Service saying "No bag? Not even bags of air?" anytime someone has reported a missing bag--myself included. I think the only reason anyone lists them with their Box of Cats of report is because it just adds to the humor.

Now that I've said all of that, just watch the next woot-off have Bags of Texas Air as the last item...

Well, okay then. Thanks for the update! It sounds like we finally have an official word on the issue: Packing material does not count, period.

LOVE IT! Did the image pixellate when you stretched it out? If not, want to post a link to the full resolution one?

Still waiting for mine. Shipping has been pushed out to Thursday.

My Boat of Creepiness has these stats:

Dimensions: 18.3 in. x 12.8 in. x 12.7 in.
Weight: 8.4 lbs.

MBrulla wrote:LOVE IT! Did the image pixellate when you stretched it out? If not, want to post a link to the full resolution one?

Hubby just enlarged it on his printer. It could be a little clearer, but you really need to hold it right in front of your face to notice. Hanging on the wall you can't see it.
He took the picture while I was out and couldn't figure out how to shut down the flash. And I was too lazy to take another or edit the one posted.

Mine got to my post office according to fed ex on saturday, but did not come today, hopefully it will be here tomorrow!!!

Mine arrived today. Here is the count and the amount:

(1) Pinnacle T-shirt, size Extra Capacious
(1) AT camera bag (which I got one of in a previous bag and use for my everyday camera - neat!)
(1) Winnie the Pooh singing toothbrush holder
and...
(1) Netgear RP614 wired router, refurbed with Sharpied-out serial number



An excellent bag. Thanks, Woot!

BTW, the wife's is at home. She's waiting till I and the kiddies are home to open it.

AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH! I am so upset now, mine did the same thing. Considering that it was sitting in WI, and is now in IN, and I live in IL, there is no way they can blame this on the floods in Nashville. All this anicipatorily waiting, checking forums, checking FedEx, is killing me. Maybe I just need to stop until Wednesday checking anything, that way I can't fret about it.

My 5.5 pound Box of Chaos arrived today, and I am very pleased with my blessings.

*1 XL Pinnacle T-shirt

*1 HSM decal clock which one of the children has already claimed and hidden from the other child

*1 American Tourister photo bag

AND

*1 IOGEAR Powerline Stereo Audio System

So VERY VERY PLEASED with my $8 spending. Thank you Woot staff!!!

The ability to voluntarily stop checking on Bowl of Cereal status would indicate the individual was not a true wooter.

Just keep bashing F5.

I've started Oblivion but I think I'm going to have to restart it. Because it's so open and doesn't force you to go anywhere, I wound up stumbling into the painting shortly after the introductory area. I've only got one painted troll left to kill, but I'm out of turpentine and I'm not strong enough to beat him. It's frustrating. I try every once in a while, but I can't snipe him because he always sees me, can't hack and slash him, and I'm not good at the magic.

This is from a few pages back. I'm checking in less, since I got my crap. But I'm still wondering if anyone's gonna get a letter!

Anyway, Oblivion. It's been a long time since I did this, but I was in the same situation. I just soldiered through it and eventually made it. I know I did it over at least a couple dozen times.

got mine!!!

Got the orange Pinnacle drawstring bag AND
a Rovio mobile webcam (seems NIB!!)
