My very first dose of Big Old Crabs showed up today.

1 iPod lanyard headphones
1 3 in 1 Music sharing kit
1 Golds Gym bag
1 FreeAgent DockStar
5 bags of texas air

I'd post a picture, but my cat is off hiding someplace right now.

5 years of trying, and I'll be back to Woot! for another Baggie of Cthulhu!!

It appears I have found the "different" Box/Bag 'O Crap. After taking FOREVER to get here, my 25.5 pound Baggie of Cthulhu made it's appearance in Brookfield, IL.

My wife informed me, while I was at work, that my box had arrived and sent me a picture:



I asked her if there was any other markings, to which she sent me:



A vacuum? Really? Can't be. Let the cat investigate:



And now the unveiling:




  • Gold's Gym Bag
  • Sylvania Music Sharing Kit
  • iPod Nano Lanyard/Earphones
  • A FREAKING Shark Professional Canister-Vac

WOW. Thanks Woot!

[quote postid="4130720" user="darianwiccan"]Here's my haul:

5 Brain Game calendars
1 Micro Innovations Laptop Keypad
1 Gold's Gym Fitness Tote
1 Nishika 35mm 3D Camera



We got the same "biggest loser" box as you... It was our first win in 3 years of trying so we thought we might get something, anything, that wouldn't go straight to the trash can. Will anyone trade me this Baggie of Cthulhu for the princess stickers before I put it to the curb?

My random Crap:

1 IPOD Nano lanyard headphones
1 Disney Princess Sticker Set
3 green single bottle wine bags
1 Gold's Gym fitness tote
1 Aroma Therapy machine to soothe asthma.

Hehe...my first bag. Was the random stuff I expected and my family and friends and I had a great time talking about it during the wait and laughing at the pics I put on Facebook. Can't wait for the next Wootoff! I want another.

aschoolf wrote:Examining the Amcor Active Air Aroma Remedies thing, it's just a 15W lamp that uses the heat from the lightbulb to "diffuse" the citrus oil infused packet from the compartment in the bottom. It's a bit disingenuous for the manufacturer to claim that the nightlight is an additional feature, as that's the basis of the functionality.

How they can claim this helps lung function is beyond me, but I'm not a medical professional.

No wonder they went out of business, as they were essentially selling plastic lamps for $40 to $50.

Anyway, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about the scent packets. It's some sort of small granule material enclosed in a very porous cloth, then moistened with citrus oil. Instead of stressing about where to obtain more of these packets, I'd go down to the health food store for a vial of essential oil, then sprinkle a few drops on an old packet to freshen it up.



I've had this thing on for just about 8 hours and the BF says my home office smells a lot better. (I'm an unrepentant smoker.) It's still a plastic lamp, but now I'm really interested to see if getting some essential citrus oil will work in a similar fashion with these packets.

The one thing I was hoping for was the 3D camera. My wife is a photographer and we were both looking forward to playing with this now limited camera.

Anyone willing to trade or throw one our way?

Dear Woot Gods:

I received my woot Baggie of Cthulhu today. It was in fact as craptastical as expected. After the grand un-boxing we realized that in fact I had only received 1 bag and 2 craps. I anxiously and excitedly searched the box thinking that perhaps a letter awaited telling me of my last crap to come, but alas no letter and no 3rd crap to be found. Perhaps you have misplaced my letter? Or I guess it could just be a crap missing in action. Your enlightened thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated. I will await your response.

Your loyal crap purchaser, Carolyn

Received the same but only 2 wine bags. Sure could have used the third as I have "wine night" with 3 other women...now I have to exclude 1 of them. Ever see 3 women fight over 2 gifts? Not a pretty sight!

Oops, my wine bags each hold two bottles of wine...but still can't share them among 3 women!

Regardless, thanks, Woot Gods, for my Baggie of Cthulhu!

Same thing happened to me. I looked all around for a letter. Part of the box was missing tape at the top. Maybe it fell out. Hmmm... here's to wondering.

I noticed our boxes had the same weight and same contents as well....We must have been on the naughty list.

You could always give the 3rd woman the Disney Princess sticker set.

I like how the iPod headset says "Designed by Apple in California. Assembled in China." Kind of designed to give you the "Made in USA" feeling while charging you $35 for $0.05 of Chinese material and labor.

Its interesting to see, as others have noted, how many 'cat people' there seem to be on Woot!...

and a little depressing to have so clearly displayed how very well trained their cats have them ;)

I got the stock crap:
1 - Amcor Active Air Aroma Remedies gadget.
1 - Gold's Gym bag.
3 - Green wine.woot bags.
1 - iPod nano Lanyard Headphones
1 - Pack of Disney Scratch & Design Fashion & Jewelry sticker sheets.

Aw maaannnnn, I wanted the purple wine.woot bags! I have so many of the green ones already!

It's cool, I know a certain little girl who will love the Disney thing, and another who received an iPod nano for her birthday (wooted by me, of course!) (edit - Oh no, the forums say it won't work out of the box on a 5th gen nano! How do you make a music player that won't fit your own earbuds?). I could always use the gym bag for something... maybe as a gym bag... And the wine bags are perfect for hauling my liquor around the county while avoiding revenuers!

Have you checked your tracking number through USPS? I got more (and better) info from there...

I got my box of crap this morning. It contained:

Two Brothers in Arms action figures
One Clique DVD
One "Funky, Whimsical Folk Art"
One Blue Reuseable Shopping Bag

At least the folk art is something somewhat different. Even though it looks more like something my mom would have rather had instead of me.

Mine is supposed to be here today, but the USPS is still only "expecting" it and it has been traveling from Belleville MI since 5:08am yesterday morning, which is only an hour or so away.

Hoping it's here soon as we are leaving for a trip this afternoon.

Mine didn't show up on the USPS site until it was already out for delivery. There seems to be some issue with the transfer of information from Fedex to USPS.

Mine didn't show up on USPS until about 2 hours after it was sorted, then it said out for delivery a little while after that. They are not keeping up, that's for sure.

Bazinga!
