I think that's great. One per person is plenty.

First Book of Crap... hope it has something good in it.

Your attempt at a scathing remark has ALSO failed... you must be used to failure - because you don't even seem phased by it... you fail on command, like a dog who was taught a few tricks.

Roll over, boy.. fetch! fail! good boy!

stupidity should be painful. Maybe, just maybe you'd avoid it more.

WOW! +10

I got my first one ever. Can't wait to see what it is, I'm excited!

WooHoo. My third Basket Of Clocks. Of course my last 'Basket Of Clocks' actually turned out to be a basket of 8 clocks and 2 Winnie the pooh singing toothbrush holders.

The postman always leaves a note to pick up my Woot boxes at the post office because they don't fit in the mail box - but because the winnie the pooh toothbrush holder was constantly singing - resetting itself on each bump for hours on the truck... he left it on my doorstep and probably ran. I guess he figured the constant playing of the winnie the pooh theme song was theft protection on the doorstep.

Dear Woot,

Thank you for the Book of Crap I shall imminently receive. I take back all the bad things I said about you. I was merely angry. You understand, don't you?

-Loatu

holy smokes i got another one. thats 5 for me. thanks to the woot gods for the Bowl of Cereal. good luck to everyone else who snagged one

The people who got them don't need good luck - they won the crap lottery.

1st bandolier of carrots ever and I snagged THREE!

Trackers, I <3 you.

Wow. (wow)

You guys know it is seriously just JUNK in these bags, right?

Cherry Popped

I got through the order screens and to the order processing page. But, it never got past "processing" and I didn't get any emails letting me know what happened one way or the other. I emailed Woot, just on the slim hope that I'm still floating in there, somewhere.

Incidentally, every email address on the Write Us page links to work@woot.com, despite what the email address says. I think they're trying to trick us and suck us in even further to the world of Woot...

Second Bowl of Cereal ever! I'm looking forward to the next few weeks or so of anticipation!

I am please as punch to finally have my Bowl of Cereal. Odd thing is that I got it while at work. Glad the boss has no clue what is going on...ever.

I managed to get one using my iPhone. I was pretty shocked. I'm excited bc it's my first Bowl of Cereal... Hope it isn't literally crap.

all im gonna say is, if i dont have a chance in hell at a Bowl of Cereal because they run it that early in the day while im at work with no access to internet, why should i even stay a member? your useless to me woot!!!!!

Your education is useless to you

YOU'RE useless to Woot. Go away now

Its been a good day all around.
1. Won my first ever wootoff B#0C,
2. Won a bunch of money on a $2 scratch off. (I only bought one)
3. Secured a big contract from a client.

-Time for a few celebratory beers!

Dang missed a Book of Crap again. I'll get you next time Woot!

I'm using my plastic picnic basket I got in the last one, so it's not all junk. And a friend really liked the multi-color flashlight that was stuck on purple, since it's her favorite color. Scored a few points there, I hope

I totally missed this one - got tied up in a meeting until 5pm. Oh well, good luck peeps! I'll be bookmarking this to see who gets stuck with loads of army men.

darn it i was stuck in Chicago traffic!!!

I had two orders (two PCs) get to the big gold button once, I think they canceled each other out because I didnt get a bag that time.

That just means that these bags will be crapier than one can imagine. Woot seems to have started doing what other sites do that sell mystery boxes, and that is to purchase junk specifically to put into these Bags Of Carp.

I liked it much better in the older days when Woot just threw in the carp laying around the warehouse. The returned stuff, the opened box stuff, the stuff that was missing parts. In other words the good stuff.

So even though I am getting a Bag this time, I don't hold out hope that it will contain anything I would find useful. It will have some poor excuse for a bag and three pieces or really cheap carp that they wouldn't even try to sell on kids.woot.

Go ahead Woot, prove me wrong.......

I know what you mean, and I sure hope you do get proven wrong. I have gotten 3 in a row over the last couple months, and they contained mostly the same trash.

Got my second Bowl of Cereal today :bowdown:

I have gotten 7 or 8 Bags over the past couple of years. The first couple were fine, but they have been going downhill ever since.

In fact between Oct 2009 and Jan. 2010 I got each Bag that was offered (4 in a row). And the quality of each one was worse than the one before.

In reviewing what people have posted as the common items in the Bags from Feb. till now, the quality has dropped even more.

So I hope I am wrong, but I bet I am not. Expect your crap to be really crappy.

Success!! In for my first bagel or crepe. Very excited-- didn't use a gallivanting alpaca.

Looking forward to opening the box soon!!

Got my first one today!

Got one! That makes #5.

Except for a letter, of course.

Got mah first Bowl of Cereal! It only took 3 years!

Three people in our office are wooting today... we each got a Book of Crap. Awesome!

British Oxygen Corporation #7 for me, thanks. Hope it's less crappy than the last one! And can you put in some Zune accessories instead of this Apple-compatible crap?

Woot!! finally got my first Book of Crap!

Is there only one per woot off? I got distracted and realized I'd missed. So sad.

Yay for you!

I am taking part in an silent auction over July 4 Weekend for a local animal shelter, and I will be donating my unopened Bowl of Cereal for someone to bid on. Hopefully there will be some wooters in the crowd and hopefully the bid over $1.
