So... did anyone else get random plastic thingys (aka negative holders) in their Bowl of Cereal's? If so, you need to hook up with people who got the negative and slide converters. Maybe we should start a thread...

travisk02 wrote:BTW... no word back from TPW yet. So we still have an unconfirmed third POC.

I'm sure there were more than 2 pallets. The last Bowl of Cereal pallet winners indicated there were as many as 5. Woot left yellow post-it notes on the pallets that were received by the winners who posted in the thread. I think 1 note said "POC 4" or something like that.

Thanks Jeus, I can't keep anything straight any more.

i guess anyone can come in and say they got a pallet and leave. =\

Guess so... still no verification from TPW.

YES...... My Box arrived at the Post Office this morning from its three state tour.

Will be opening it over lunch, common HSM Alarm Clock and Desk Calendar.

Don't know any Travis or Chuck. Whole assortment of stuff, including 360 Would You Rather Calendars. Not going to post everything though.

how about a picture?

Thanks for being a good sport about it.

Please? +1 cherry up top

I'm torn. Usually anyone posting about their POC gets a qual. post, but not this one. Does this mean the whole thing is a hoax or are the WootGods displeased with the lack of excitement or sharing.

hmmmmm.

they get a bacon rasher for saying "i got a letter" and posting pics, then they get a bacon rasher for posting pics of the pallet. sometimes they get qps for other things too but i think those are the two major things. and above as you can see they posted ZERO pics.

I cry foul! I think this is not what someone is wanting us to believe it is.

Why wouldn't you want to post everything? If you don't want to post pics then don't but it's kinda nice to be able to compare what people got... like I have you beat on the calendars, I received 756 of them in my pallet o crap.

Seriously? How are we without letters supposed to live vicariously through those who are fortunate enough to receive the blessings of the woot gods if you aren't willing to tell us what you got?!

Many thanks and congratulations to the other letter winners who were generous enough to take the time to post what they got, with pics!

OK Jsale.....What is NightGhosts' excuse for today???????

Not sure exactly, haven't heard from him in awhile. If I hear something, you all will be the first to know.

(I did tell him that we were all waiting for him to 'drop some knowledge' for us.)

I suspect BrainWav isn't too concerned about receiving quality posts. And actually, I am not sure myself why they are so coveted (no offense to the Woot! Gods intended). Are they like frequent flyer miles? Will NightGhost get a free trip to Wootville! when he reaches 1000? Or is it just to show you are wittier/smarter/more bored than other Wooters!? Please elucidate.....

The bacon rasher in this thread would validate the claim of a third pallet for the rest of us. I believe BrainWav probably did receive a PoC, but it's strange that he/she doesn't want to post the items they got with it.

BrainWav wrote:... including 360 Would You Rather Calendars ...

Well, at least now we know that there were 1116 WYR calendars sent via Pallet. The guesses of 1086 were only 30 off.

Boy, I hope I get a letter next CrapFest, just so I can NOT tell BrainWav what I got! That'll show him! Help me out, TPW.

I have been promised a pallet of brownie points.

(that's a lot of points, since they don't weigh anything)

Not a bad haul.

But what I want to know: has anyone performed a molecular analysis to confirm that these bags do in fact contain genuine Texas air? Do we know for sure we're not fawning over imported Hong Kong air? Not that I'm trying to be an atmospheric bigot, mind you - I just want to know.

Here is a quote from the website of the manufacturer of the machines that make that packaging:

Chains of air cushions are created using ambient air, eliminating the need for an external air supply making the unit truly portable.

Now obviously Woot! likely isn't using the portable version, but there is no reason that a larger permanent machine should work any different.

This thread is still going on?
I thought it would end quite quickly after the pallets were shown

Its fading fast. Especially since the Birthday bags are due to be shipped tomorrow (per TPW), everyone will be talking about those.

Old threads never die. They just linger in cyber-oblivion.

Tracking number finally showing something. Fed-Ex says it is 22.7 pounds. Scheduled for delivery on Jul 31st. Fingers crossed! :-) Excited for some bags of Texas air.
