Just received a tracking number this afternoon. 5.4 lbs. with a delivery estimate of the 14th....the local USPS is a pack of rude buttafuocoures, so I'll get it a couple days late, or a call saying they lost it again...I'm hoping for a couple days late.

mostly a foot print, and a hand written code - I left everything at home - so I'll need to check it out closer when I get back to it.

I'm guessing (since mine was 18.8) that we'll be getting chargers for phones that no longer exist. Heavier and would fit in the typical box. After all these Booms of Carrots are now possibly loaded with stuff Amazon would normally landfill.

Sounds just like my post office too. They are so lazy that our mail carrier will not drive up our long driveway. Instead she leaves a note in our mailbox stating I have a box to pick up. To top it off I get out of work at 5pm and it takes me 30 minutes to drive home - the post office closes at 5pm.

Thank goodness this shipment is coming by FedEx Home Delivery but it is still only saying 1lb.

Notice today - 8.5 lbs with a delivery Date of Oct 13, 2010. Sweet.

I have prime. Mine is shipping smartpost.

Myth BUSTED.

10.3 lbs arriving the 12th...damn, here's hoping for a lightweight projector!

But I have amazon Prime and my shipment is going out by FedEx Home Delivery

Myth PLAUSIBLE. (but I highly doubt it) ;)

I too have amazon prime, and mine is coming smart post.

10.5 pounds estimated for 10/9 (Smartpost)

I'm so excited, first Baggie of Cthulhu.

.5 ounce more than my Grandnephew when born.

Hope this delivery doesn't literally need a diaper for its c r a p. (meant lovingly toward both woot and the Grandnephew)

Finally, some movement and a weigh-in!

10.5 lbs / 4.8 kgs
15.2 in. x 15.2 in. x 15.2 in.

This is my heaviest one ever. I just wish I wasn't expecting calendars already, LOL. I probably need to stop watching this thread. ;)

Still a 15.8" cube..
11.8 lbs..
Estimated date: 10/12

*twiddles thumbs*

By the way... For those with 2010 calendars, instead of throwing 'em out, hand on to them... In just a few short years, they'll be valid again!

The dates of 2010 are aligned to the same dates in 2021, so you can pull those 2010 calendars out and use them in 2021! Just think how retro chic you'll be!

Well, now that the first Bathtub of Cheetos, has been delivered, it is time to go into blog shut down mode. No more reading until the 13th good luck everyone!

Finally got my placeholder adjusted as it reached Dallas. My Baggie of Cthulhu will be arriving in Pittsburgh, PA on October 14th with a healthy weight of 12.8 pounds.

Dimensions are 16.2 in. x 16.2 in. x 16.2 in.

I missed an item!!

I also got a Columbus discovers Giligan's Island kids t-shirt... which fit two of my kids. That makes this a small "yea"

(will would have liked to get the webcam!)

Fedex reported 10lbs. Measured 10lbs 7oz

6-2010 Jumble calendars
1-Screaming Monkey (cheetah cape!)
1-Wii Action Pack
3-Gold's Gym fitness totes
*no* bags of local Texas air



No radio control toys for me We'll probably use the Wii pack and I don't have this style of Monkey.

I do think the bags this year are not up to previous years.

But thanks woot! Certainly worth $8.33.

Robert

BAM!!! 11.4lbs due in Detroit on 10/14...

Seems like a long shipping time...

Please don't buy any calendars for 2011. Apparently, nobody bought ‘em from you last year and I don't reckon they're very cheap to ship in the crap bags. Smart purchasing beneifts everyone.
Yours,
bsmith1

P.S. Who is responsible for buying all these calendars? What is this boy's name?

Jeff Besos

Due the 13th 8.5lbs...

outer78 wrote:lol madison area? I'm watching mine and 3 others in my area. I just noticed that the others finally got their tracking info. I got mine yesterday so its a day ahead.

No one else in my area that I'm aware of...

Apparently the bags didn't like the lake this time...none of my friends got any either.

My stuff is purported to weigh 9.6lbs (no dimensions showing on FedEx SmartPost - is there a trick to seeing those).

Supposedly will arrive here in Denver on Saturday, 10/9.

Since mine is in the 10lb-ish range, here's betting it is like what others have posted so far.

My cat will be annoyed by another screaming monkey in the house.

I can give any wii accessories to one of several wii-owning friends.

I never use paper calendars so there's something for the recycle bin.

Gym bags? Maybe as white elephant stuff this xmas in the office.

Kid's tee? I know some munchkins that might benefit from clothing.

My crap is shipping Fedex Home Delivery, not SmartPost and this has been the same for the last couple craps I have received. Maybe woot decided Home Delivery was better for my zip code.

Why oh why did I look? 9.4 pounds coming my way and now I know what I'm getting. Lesson learned!

My first ever Beautiful Ocean Cabana weighs in at 10.6 lbs in a 15.2x15.2x15.2 inch box. Coming in on the 9th!

Well mine just made it to FedEx at 8.5lbs and 14.2in cubed. Should be arriving in south Texas on 10/12/10 WooHoo!!!

I know, right? It's impossible to stay away. You know what they say, "Curiosity killed the crap."
Mine is 9.5 pounds, so maybe I got the letter in there too.

Based on the carp everyone else is getting, can I have FedEx reroute that back to woot? I don't even want a refund.

Please feel free to have them send it to me. They have my shipping address on file.

27.4 pounds incoming, ETA: 14th. jesus christ, whats in that thing? 200 calendars??

You lucky SOB, gotta be a ROOMBA.

My crap shipped today... strangely it went from Dallas to Houston. They missed me! Come back north to Austin! LOL.

22lbs by the way. First Box of Cat. Expecting about 75 calendars.

1 lb coming to the middle of NY state via FedEx Home Delivery, supposed to be arriving 10/9 but who knows.

I wonder/worry about what it is.

how do you see dimensions?

johnsoneb wrote:You lucky SOB, gotta be a ROOMBA.

Hahahaha!

I'm totally hoping for a light box now, after seeing all these calendars.

Just got my tracking number today.

I expect delivery on Monday (Fedex says Saturday).

No Dimensions but weighs in at 30.6 lbs.
I hope it isn't all the rest of the 2010 calendars they have!

Ft. Worth checking in, got my battle of cannae.

6 jumble desk calendars
3 gold's gym totes
1 desert camo screaming monkey (or cheetah print on closer inspection)
1 kids size "shredding guitar" shirt (otterific)
1 "wine boar" pig's head corkscrew
1 philips GoGear mp3/video player


this is a great bobs our cousin! thanks WOOT

5.6 lbs. Here's to the 5 pounders! Hurrah! I will love my lighter than average crap no matter how much other's crap may weigh. Because it is mine.

Actually, I was secretly hoping to get a one pound place holder. I envisioned opening the box to find an aluminum cube weighing exactly one pound. I could use it to hold the places of things.

nokkieny wrote:how do you see dimensions?

Like this.

Using that knowledge, head on over to FedEx and sign-up for a user account. I hear there are some cool things to see there once you have an account. Please don't make LEM- post his super long, page-hogging "primer" again...

Here's an excerpt:
2. To get the dimensions you need to create My FedEx account (no charge, and you don't have to give them cc number if you don't want to): http://my.fedex.com/ and make sure to switch to new or advanced version. Enter your tracking number, and the dimensions will pop...

josmul123 wrote:I have prime. Mine is shipping smartpost.

Myth BUSTED.

yeah but can the two accounts be linked?

16.8 in. x 16.8 in. x 16.8 in.

22lbs.

That's quite a crap cube.
